Eh? I aint really trying to talk you out of anything. Just making sure you're building for the right reasons. And I also don't know more than anyone on this forum... So...

It seems like you were. Maybe I am in a "seeing things negatively" type of mood right now. I blame Devious.

Go for the latest, it's dumb not to at this point. Don't buy a dead platform in 2024.

DDR5 is a lot of fun. I just manually did all of my settings and gained a ton as you can tighten them now significantly across the board.

Some people get salty they aren't on the latest when others talk about it.

Eh? I can't think of anyone getting salty about this.

What you get your timings down to btw? I thought about fricking with mine, but a 4070 on 1440P settings just seems like such a waste.

30-36-36-30 from 30-38-38-96.

Hit 5.550GHz at 1.33 on the 7700X as well and was able to beat my previous record by a bit. Got the 4070 to 9,063 on time spy extreme beating my old by a good bit.





I went ham the other night.

Holly shite and the last part of the timing. Mistype or is that real?

I'm at 5500mhz with just enhanced PBO. Although, I don't see much sense in trying to get more out of it with my current GPU. Curve optimizer seems stable at -28. Can't overclock my GPU due to 200 watt limiter.

Wait until you start playing around with secondary and tertiary timings. That’s when the fun really starts

It's real. You can get tras crazy low now on DDR5.

I did all of them. The guide was for all like 50 settings for that shite took awhile.

I don't see trying to squeeze more out of my cpu or ram until my GPU gets better, but holy shite, that's nuts.

Well make sure for cpu you disable c-states in bios and go into USB and also disable xhci handoff.

What did it say about setting tRAS?

Ever since you first posted your primary timings, that tRAS timing struck me as odd, and especially because I don’t remember spending much time on it when I was OCing/tuning my RAM. I kept thinking “I want to say that was just a straight formula…” but it had been so long that I couldn’t recall. Just looked it up, and now I understand why. Having a tRAS lower than CL + tRCD basically gets ignored for a simple reason: CL and tRCD must complete before the tRAS time as tRAS is the amount of time a row needs to be active to have data read from it. CL is the delay from request to ready to read and tRCD is read time. The row can’t be active for less time than those combined. So regardless of what your motherboard is allowing for input for tRAS, with CL at 30 and tRCD at 36, your tRAS is running at or above 66.

Eta: The above is at least to my understanding. RAM is half voodoo to me. If anyone knows better, feel free to correct me.

Are you thinking tRC maybe? Not sure on ram either just followed buildzoid and HU guides.

No, tRC is another formulaic one, though. It’s tRP + tRAS. Just so happened that because your CL and tRAS are both set to 30 that the ultimate equation would come out to 68.

Oh okay, it does say at the bottom that bios updates lately moved it from 28 to 30 for a minimum as 28 put it below cl30 prior. So you are probably correct otherwise they wouldn't change that I'd think. Could have been causing issues putting it below at 28 tras.

Planning next build. I'm very behind on mobos - what is the best out there for AM5?

I think I'm just going to bite the bullet and go 4090 + 7800X3D

I wouldn’t spend more than like $300 for a mobo… just find an MSI or Gigabyte X670 board that has as many m.2 slots and fan headers you need.

MSI is what I'm leaning towards. Not doing Asus again
