Overclocking DDR4 HyperX Fury 4x2 GB 2400Mhz

[Nefestor]

Hello guys!

this's my first post here and i'm sharing my result with my RAM. After visit this site looking for some reviews (thanks woomack) i bought the memory Team Group T-Force Xtreem 2x8 4500mhz and i'm looking for a new processor (didn't decide about Ryzen 7 3700x/3800x or i9 9900k, accepting opinions).

this's my result and info about my RAMs (sorry for AID64 Trial Version).

Motherboard: Asrock H170 Fatal1ty Performance
Processor: i7 6700T
RAMs: DDR4 Hyper Fury 2x4GB

Stock vs Overclocking Secondary Timing:

tWR: 16 > 5
tRFC: 278 > 184
tRRD_L: 7 > 4
tRRD_S: 7 > 4
tWTR_L: 8 > 4
tWTR_S: 3 > 1
tRTP: 8 > 6
tFAW: 24 > 10
tCWL: 12 > 8


Here's the result with the DDR4 T-Force Xtreem 4500Mhz CL 18-20-20-44 1.45V on my motherboard:

2133mhz (limit of the MB) CL 8-8-8-28 1.5V with min sec. timings, except tRFC (140). (next week i'll buy a new processor and MB )

The Intel i9 9900k does better running high speed memory stable.

Actually Ryzen 3000 is better for higher memory clock (easier to find 4800+ IMC and easier to stabilize it) but both are not scaling well past 3800-4000 so I guess it doesn't matter which will be in use and max memory clock shouldn't be the reason to pick one over another.

Problem with Intel is that you need high SA voltage to make it run well past 4600+ and the CPU already runs really hot. Problem with AMD is that between 3800-4600+ there is a "performance hole" where memory at DDR4-3600 and tighter timings easily beats higher clock. Depends on the CPU, you will need 4600-4800 at CL18 to beat 3600 at CL14-16

to the OCF
Hynix AFR generally runs up to 4000 at tight CL but all other timings are quite relaxed.

TG 4500 is a great memory and I think you will have some fun overclocking it. Even without any changes it's a solid kit. Once you get a new CPU then you can play with settings and check optimal performance. For AMD it will be or ~3800 CL14-16 or ~4800 CL17-18. For Intel it will be ~3733 CL14-15 or ~4600 at tighter timings than in XMP so 16-16-16 or 17-17-17.

Thanks for sharing the info!

And yes, i agree about what you wrote: "the max memory clock shouldn't be the reason to pick one over another". And about the SA voltage turning the processor more hot, i didn't put this on my calc. Probably i'll get the Ryzen, he's more cheaper and cold. Now the challenger will be a good motherboard to put all this on the limits! Probably on the next week i'll buy both, i'm looking for alternatives and the i9 isn't discarted for only one reason, i have a 2080ti and a FHD Ultrawide monitor (yes, it's a crazy build )

Actually, not many reviewers are mentioning heat but these new Ryzens are getting really hot. In both cases, it will be similar but 9900K will be faster in some games, even at the stock clock or with some little thermal throttling. On the other hand I assume you will be prepared on better cooling no matter which CPU you pick.

Yes woomack, it's a powerful CPU! It's really hard decide buy. There's pro and cons from both sides.
