Built my pc today
Ryzen 1700
Gtx 1080 ti
Ch6
Corsair 2x16gb 2400
Gamemax 800 w psu
Sama case
Cooler master cpu water cooler

To my very nice surprise it powered up and booted straight away and i installed a fresh copy of windows 10 .
I havnt updated the bios yet though and my version is 1.03
Only done the auto overclock so far though to 3400 mhz
Hopefully I'll be lucky for a change lol

From Elmor
Temperature readings on 0902 and pre 5803. We tweaked it a bit too far and will be reversed in future updates, you can manually go back to stock/5803 behavior by going to Tweaker's paradise and set Sense MI skew = Enabled and Sense MI offset = 272 (0902 setting when overclocked is 283). Reading too low can affect your DRAM stability, so if your system is reading less than 30*C I suggest you set it.

Since doing this. I only spend 1 hr last night then 1 hr stable test.
1700 @ 3.646Mhz 1.3V
Corsair CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) Vengeance LPX @ 2992Mhz
C6H @ bios 0902
Temps peaking at 36
I think latest Bios with Sense MI is rocking atm

Ok not doing so great after all

Got code 56 apparently invalid cpu type or speed ?

Bought different slow ddr4 ram today and still 0d or 24 error. I think I have to RMA cpu and mb :mad:

List your parts guys if you're getting errors ans such... you could save someone the same problems!

marashz · 13 Mar 2017 at 16:02

Listed mine before, but nvm.
AMd 1700X, Asus CH6, Sapphire Nitro 390, Corsair Vengeance LED 3200MHz CL16 (2x8GB / CMU16GX4M2C3200C16R) and new one is Hypertec 4GB 2133MHz (only that one found in local shops / MEM170004GBD / one sided).

I'm so pi**ed off, sold old pc parts, waited so long for MB and now this...

Yaayuh! · 13 Mar 2017 at 16:19

I'm running 1800X, ASUS CH6 and Corsair Vengeance LED 3200MHz 2x8GB.

First thing i would do is reseat the CPU, ensure RAM is in A2 and B2 DIMMS, reseat the power cables inc both CPU connections.

Could be an unfortunate RMA situation.

What version is your CH6?

marashz · 13 Mar 2017 at 18:57

Mine CH6 is v1.03.

Took all parts out of case, builded all on table. Nothing changed. Q code 0d

Can it be gpu? Or only ram / mb incompatibility?

Sometimes just after 0d Q code changes to A9 :?

From the asus mobo R+D guy just now

If your system is stuck on 0d you can try flashing 5803 using USB BIOS Flashback, let it update fully and then re-flash 0902.

Yesterday did that and nothing changed. Today decided to turn on pc before going to work and everything worked. In bios changed ram speed to 2400Mhz (had no time to try 2 sticks), loaded windows, reinstalled AMD ReLive and that's all for now.

Vakas · 14 Mar 2017 at 14:59

there is now available stock of this borard but still not too keen apparently Gigabyte boards will be in at the end of the month that's another 2 weeks feels like it's taking forever...

Zhuni · 14 Mar 2017 at 15:26

I went for it. Gives me two weeks to brick it and pick up the Gigabyte. Happy either way

Vakas · 14 Mar 2017 at 15:32

lol do you think its worth going for it then?

mattyc1977 · 14 Mar 2017 at 15:44

I think with the new 902 bios, as long as you flash to the new bios, it sounds like a lot of the problems have been worked out and its "unbrickable". That's what I am telling my self anyway as im setting mine up later....

Sure! gives me something to play with. If its good I keep it, if not it goes back. People are having trouble on the Gigabytes as well. Now the bios is out that prevents bricking Im happy to jump in a have a play.

Vakas · 14 Mar 2017 at 15:57

Have the memory issues been sorted do you know...

Will 3200MHZ work out of the box?

Vakas · 14 Mar 2017 at 16:05

It's sold out again lol

Yeah the motherboard stocks are bad, at least we both have decent enough PC's still so we can wait!
