Strix b350-f Gaming

ginnus21
Level 7
I've built myself a ryzen 1800x, Strix b350f gaming, G Skill f4-3200c14 16 gtz.
Updated bios, so ram running at 3200mhz 14.14.14.34 no problem. I cannot get the motherboard to hold multiplyer of anything above 38.5.
Every time I set it to 40 or 41, it just boot to 38.5. Any ideas?

I didn't have that installed in the first place and I doubt it has anything to do with it. I only have the AI Suit for monitoring, running only on demand.


Do you by any chance use HWINFO? I've just re-installed it today (set to load with Windows) and the black screens re-appeared!

It's unrelated, you just had luck. I haven't had any freezes for quite a few days now, but it could happen again anytime.

I own a b350M and just completed an X370 Pro build. With the b350m, which appears to share the pcb layout at least with the strix if not the vrm sans heat sink, fan headers and rgb headers, monitoring software that loaded with windows was problematic. clean uninstall of ai suite ended many issues including black screens for myself as well as others. New version did not improve it for me so I'm gonna pass on new installs. Fan profile set from bios is not as useful as qfan but ain't worth the trouble.

hwinfo is happier if you don't load it with windows less likely to cause issues or incorrectly read VID . low power states tend to make monitoring software bug out and read the wrong values at times. Would have been nice to have a 65535 ghz cpu but I'm pretty sure.... just staart it after windows has loaded. usually happier.


cldo_vddp would be nice to have. present in bios, not available to adjust. why?

I spent close to two weeks dealing with serious instability and issues stress testing an X370 Strix, even at stock clocks, on 5 different Ryzen 7 CPUs. Random reboots, black screens, the whole nine yards. Mostly requiring flipping the power switch to recover.

On a whim I decided to not run HWiNfo64 one time, and the rig ran y-cruncher for 24 hours straight.

I think there's some compatibility issue with the software and something on these boards.

Hi, I'm just going to buy this motherboard to pair it with 16GB of F4-3600c17D G.skill Ram I've already ordered. Since it's B-die will it run at least 3200mhz on this mobo. Any personal experience?

I've got a very stupid question here. 😄 So, I'm using this ROG STRIX B350-F Gaming motherboard with Ryzen5 1600 CPU and Corsair H60 120mm AIO for cooling. On the motherboard, there are several fan headers. AIO_PUMP, CPU_FAN, CPU_OPT, CHA1, CHA2 and CHA3. Currently I've connected the AIO pump to CPU_FAN and the fan attached to the 120mm radiator to CPU_OPT. That way, I can control both the pump and the fan with just one fan curve setting. I tried to plug in the AIO pump to AIO_PUMP header and fan to CPU_FAN but the AIO pump is not detected by Asus AI Suite 3 and it is always running at full speed.

So, please let me know if I'm doing all the fan setups wrong or is there better way to do it.

Anyone have any issues with spiking up to like 1.4v-1.5v on idle and stuttering under load on stock settings with the Ryzen 1600x?

I have an R5 1600X as well and I to have these spikes up to 1.45V idle and when booting into windows (10). The are alright and it´s simply the part of of Ryzen/AM4 is designed , have I read at AMD´s forum and here. The stuttering might be memory related it seems it´s very sensitive regarding this. I just changed the power plan in windows from "balanced" to High Performance" and the voltage became more stable.

And now a wish: I would love the possibility of power on the computer by pressing a key on my keyboard, hope that comes in a BIOS update 🙂

So, I've got this MB with Ryzen 1600 and a pair of G.Skill TridentZ 3000Mhz CL16 8GB RAMs (16GB kit). I OC the RAMs using DOCP profile, 2933 MHz @ 1.5v VRAM. With the latest 0902 bios, the cold boots always make the PC posted into Safe mode POST. It forced me to goes into UEFI settings and make changes. Yap, I don't have anything to change. I just get out of the UEFI without saving and then it would boot into the OS. This issue is very seldom with previous bios versions, but very persistent with 0902. And happens only if i OC the RAM. the issue doesn't occur if I run the RAMs at default 2133Mhz speed.

have anyone got similar issue? pls let me know how can i resolve it or whether I need to RMA the board.

Have you tried to set SOC voltage higher? up to 1.1V should be fine , I have mine at 1.05V so far (still fine tuning the system).
Have you tried to apply more Voltage to the memory? 1.35V is fine (even 1.45-1,5V should be OK for years) mine is default 1.2V but I have set them to 1.285V.
Are your memory on the motherboards QVL list? Mine is not but I still have the opportunity to choose an DOCP profile in bios, which is stable with my memory´s highest default settings (2800MHz) . I can even OC to 2933 with lower timings but with raised voltage .
