  • Ryzen 2600X + GSkill Ripjaws V on Samsung B-die - weird behaviors

    Hi there,

    Let me start from my setup for better insight:

    CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X (stock clock, no OC, no voltage changes)
    Cooler: NZXT Kraken X62 v2
    Mobo: Gigabyte X470 Aorus Ultra Gaming (updated BIOS from F3 to F6, no errors, after update BIOS reboot check went positive)
    RAM: GSkill Ripjaws V 16 GB ( 2 x 8GB) Non-ECC @ 3200 XMP - Samsung B-die modules, placed in slot 0 and 2 in mobo
    GPU: Gigabyte RTX 2070
    SSD: Samsung Pro 970 nVME 500GB
    PSU: Corsair HX750 Platinum series

    Since a month, I had weird behavior with my PC. Using it mainly for After Effects and Premiere, with occasional gaming and lately, more and more I get random BSOD while working in AE (error codes are connected to IRQL, Page or Kernel, sometimes error regarding graphic driver crashing). Games tend to just turn off without any error or logs in Windows Event Manager.

    I have started 2 days ago testing my setup from beginning, unfortunately only over night while sleeping because well, all day work.

    2 days ago - Memtest86 - Parallel CPU, XMP profile loaded, DRAMV at 1.35V as stock
    Result: https://cryolite.s-ul.eu/Tdbfbv34.png - 5 errors at test 8

    Yesterday - Memtest86 - Parallel CPU, XMP disabled, DRAMV at 1.20V as stock
    Result: https://pastebin.com/ZnjBvLgg - tons of UEFI Firmware errors, tons of memory errors, Memtest was rebooting or hanging.
    I have run again with XMP profile loaded, this time I have set DRAMV at 1.36V (+0.01V) and Memtest finished 4 tries without single error.
    Today, I have plan to run again on stock DRAMV and XMP but please advise, what can be wrong that my PC does not handle memory without XMP. Besides Memtest being weird, Windows instantly BSOD with IRQL error at login screen every single time or reboot while loading.

    Any ideas how I can test this more to figure out which component require warranty service?

    Thanks for ideas, cheers
    Michael

    RAM errors normally mean the RAM is bad.

    So I would just replace the RAM under warranty. Or you can continue to play around with speeds and voltages and maybe get to a stable state (the sweet spot for those marginal sounding sticks).
