Description

The thing is, I think the B version I have is Samsung though it doesn't specify B die. The Manufacturer says Samsung and it just says 8gb/1 die but I'm assuming that's a Samsung B Die.

I may consider moving over to the Z version if that's a better option. I know people have really good results getting higher speeds and tighter timings with the Samsung B-die Z version so I'm not sure why the B version I have has different specs if it's the same memory module on there. Like I was trying to say to paridoth I think for ver. 4.32 the memory type correlates to "Samsung OEM" in Dram Calculator. Glad to report that the system did POST and everything seems to be working smoothly. Did some mem testing for around 10 minutes and it didnt crash, so I guess the pc is usable for now. I will stress test and benchmark tomorrow, too tired now. Part of our exhaustive testing process includes performance and compatibility testing on nearly every motherboard on the market – and a few that aren’t.

Overview

If you want to benchmark RAM, it seems like you understand that you need benchmarks that are RAM constrained and compression is part of it, though that's largely CPU bound not RAM bound. In terms of WinRAR specifically, this benchmark offers nothing because your resolution is so poor you can only separate dual cores from quad cores from hex cores, you can't distinguish hex cores with DDR4-2400 from hex cores with DDR4-3200. On top of that, WinRAR is more dependent on the disk so using an M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 drive should be distinguishable from a SATA-III SSD, is distinguishable from a HDD. You could make the WinRAR benchmark more meaningful by using a bigger data set -- if 1.3GB takes 30 seconds then 15GB should take about 346 seconds and now you can resolve to within 1/346 = 0.29%. Well below what anyone really cares about. reboot. memtest86. if all good then boot into windows and get your memory settings from Ryzen Master. The latest that I read was around the end of the year (December '17) and a few buyers of this RAM was saying they could only get up to 2933 mhz so I don't know if that has changed. There were no details, though, so I don't know if it mattered about the motherboard or BIOS. I was trying for weeks to get my memory stable at 3600MHz. I tried many different settings offered by the Ryzen DRAM Calculator and non of them worked for me. I was never able to post after applying values provided by the calculator. My online research has found till now that everyone with hynix chip (RAM version 5.39) have the Intel optimized(B) module while those who owns the samsung b-die (RAM version 4.31) have the AMD Optimized(Z) module.

Why do you run WinRAR benchmark that takes about 30 seconds to complete when you have 1 second resolution. You don't actually expect DDR4-3200 compared to DDR4-2400 to give you a 3.3% boost on overall system performance when your previous benchmark showed that the gain in pure memory bandwidth is around 10-15% and the latency boost is around 3%.I specifically want the samsung b-die version (the Vengeance cost ~170€ while others ram modules like G skill Flare X or other modules with samsung b-die chip usually costs 200€+). I also have a kit of 4.32 ram (different model, size, and dual rank) and found it didn't like tRC timings (and some lower tRFC) out of the box and were a bit problematic to get working. I needed to reconfigure ProcODT, RTT, and SOC to push over DDR4-3200 successfully. Scroll down in thiaphoon report to screenshot your XMP timings. I think the JEDEC timings are listed first in the report, then XMP after.

I am very sorry for my post being so long and please excuse me if my English is not perfect, but it's not my native language.

I can't find anything recent although the motherboards seemed to be either MSI or Gigabyte boards (but, people were only reporting around 2933 mhz). If you're building a Ryzen machine, it might be a better idea to get CMK16GX4M2Z3200C16. I'd recommend just getting a 2x8 kit and running it in Dual Channel mode. It's a theory that may seems reasonable but I cannot confirm for sure in any way and would be interesting to understand the difference.

The clever and stylish, low-profile design of DDR4 LPX memory means it can fit comfortably into much smaller spaces. The LPX series of Vengeance DRAM was prepared for when the first of the Micro ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards for DDR4 memory released. In any system that has minimal internal space the small form factor of the LPX DDR4 RAM from Corsair is ideal. For RAM constrained applications, look into more scientific applications. Also worthwhile would be X99 in dual channel vs X99 in quad channel.

Supports XMP 2.0

I'm sorry to revive an old thread but i'm investigating the issue and I have a theory that i could not confirm or discard as invalid. In fact... Now on my same board with Ryzen 5 2600X I get 3200 14 14 14 34 timings stable. On MSI boards in the BIOS, they have a list of frequency and timings you can TRY and that one also works. So I can run that or 16 18 18 36 no problem. CAS 14 settings is faster a bit but so far only in RAM benchmarks. Not in anything else. So, I installed the latest BIOS (dont know if that mattered, but at least the beta BIOS is not broken).
