BTW did anyone keep an eye on the whole jayztwocents and GN where the two were competing against each other? I loved hard when I saw der8aurs response video popup in my sub feed.

 
@EarthDog can I get example of the UTF-16 username I.D. file that would be Acceptable for this bench by Hwbot.

Thank you sir.

Finally got it. No spaces!!!!

Awesome idea, I have never used this bench before so it was a nice learning opportunity. This is one brutal bench...WOW If you want to shave some time (about a second for me) just change the priority of the binary to realtime.

faster ram but had to reduce the clocks because I'm running the stock cooler

I saw that on hwbot when I did my submission... I was like, where do I find 2 seconds from? I could try to push cores some more but I'm not sure that'll get around my slower ram... unless I want to try a ram OC...
 
The speed/quantity could have a bit to do with it. Mystical said it was quite RAM sensitive. This is my 24/7 machine no real tweaks. Probably just rebooted to diagnostic mode to cut down background noise.
 
Quantity should be ok as long as I have enough, although needing ~5GB on an 8GB system doesn't leave much headroom. As for speed, I knew that was a factor (2nd post in thread). I'll get my B-die out later. I know I've taken that to 3866 on Intel with slack timings, but Ryzen ram OC will be new to me...

Maybe I should just blow some cash on fast ram for benching as it is contributing to me not quite keeping up in various cases.

For this bench you need some stability so getting 34-3600 on Ryzen will probably be the max. I bench a 3600 most of the time on the new AM4 but tried a few runs for the TC with a 2400G and it's definitely not as friendly as second gen Ryzen. Had to drop to 3466 to make it through
 
Just had a look around online. Ram rated around 4000+ is CL19 so hardly much different from my B-die oc of 3866C18 from memory... or was it C17? If overclocking was easy it wouldn't be fun :)

Edit: found it in another thread, it was 3866 17-17-17-38 1.35v, IO 1.10v, SA 1.20v to save myself looking it up again later.
 
The easiest RAM I have found to work with the Ryzen is the G.Skill FlareX 3200.

Who left the damn door open this time? :D Welcome mllrkllr :thup:

And Mackerel if you're going to get serious about benching you're going to need at least one good set of sticks.

Hopefully one day I'll get a chance to push some hardware, hard again.
 
I looked at high speed ram, and once you get to 4000+ they're C19. Back to my B-die on Ryzen, in some testing I've got it going apparently stably at 3400C16 but that isn't enough to beat J45's y-cruncher time. 3466C18 was also tested but not stable. I have some more ideas on ram timing tweaks, especially working down the latency, but it'll take some time to do.
