Hi guys,

Finally my parts just came back from warranty and I was able to put them together "again", good news is it works but I've got few questions to trx40 aorus master users out there (preferably aorus master + 3970x users) What kind of debug code do you have on your board? Mine is 40 but I have no idea what it means. it's not on the list and I can't find any information about it whatsoever. 

Second thing is, I got completely new set of RAM dimms (same as previously, vengence lpx 3200MHz) - they are ok but ram speed is still 2133 even though I set XMP to profile 1. It might be bios related or it's ram? (my current bios version is F4)

thanks in advance

Update your bios to f5c, as they fixed some issues with memory stability. Myself and a colleague had issues with the XMP profile turning off after reboots. The update worked for us.

Wow! Okay my 3990x CPU was faulty a week after installation. I got that replaced after an exhaustive process of elimination.

The last week my PSU was cutting out, and is also replaced. Very unlucky but hopefully it's smooth sailing from here on in!

Hey Ryan,

Does it run fully stable at 3600/CL16 ? This is 8x16GB right ?


Yes Juraj, it seems to be stable so far. 8x16gb running full speed now I turned on XMP Profile in BIOS. I’ll be rendering on it a few hours tomorrow and will post if I find any issues!

I would try running something like memtest for a few hours to double check stability. Actually trying running a demanding game as I've had games crash a system due to unstable memory timings even after running memtest for 5+ hours with zero errors (others have found the same on various OC'ing forums). Interestingly rendering doesn't seem to tax memory as hard as gaming, so you could techically be running an unstable memory OC and not even know it (until a problem rares it's head right when you don't want it to on a critical overnight render).

I would suggest using Ryzen Dram calculator + Typhoon burner to hone in on rock solid settings. For me the 3600mhz CL17 XMP settings appeared stable at first (128gb kit), but then I would get random app crashes, and confirmed with memory errors after 5 minutes of memtest. After manually inputting the tweaked Ryzen DRAM settings for Hynix DJR into the bios I have better than XMP timings and am fully stable in memtest, games and rendering.


Okay, I tried running DRAM Calculator 1.7.0 with my spec but it says "Error: Not Supported!"
I've attached the info. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi guys,

I want to buy next week a 3990x workstation.
What do you thing about this config:

AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3990X 2.9GHz box
Noctua NH-U14S TR4-SP3
GIGABYTE AORUS TRX40 MASTER
GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2080 Ti GAMING OC 11GB GDDR6 352-bit
HyperX Predator Black 16GB DDR4 3200MHz CL16 1.35v   x 8 (128 GB)
SSD ADATA SX8200 PRO 512GB PCI Express 3.0 x4 M.2 2280
Seagate BarraCuda 4TB SATA-III 5400RPM 256MB x2
Inter-Tech GW-M1200, 80+ Gold, 1250W
Fractal Design Define 7 XL Black Solid

Also i want to add another Noctua NF-A15 PWM fan for CPU , but from my experience with another 3970X configuration, this will cover 2 slots of RAM, so you will have just 6. This happned with AORUS TRX40 PRO WIFI. I dont know if TRX40 MASTER its bigger.

You can check the wishlist here https://www.pcgarage.ro/vizualizare-wishlist/4116602/

I can say that the Aorus Master fits into the Fractal Define R6. It's snug but I converted the layout to open and there's plenty of airflow. I settled on this as it had better thermals in reviews than the Vector RS. A bigger case is never a bad thing for airflow though.
The heat sink is tall on the NH-U14S TR4-SP3 that you can attach the fans slightly above the RAM. See image.

Haha, that's funny Joe - I saw this and tried the benchmark out and I got the position next to you! Cinebench 20 was also 25793.

After a few minor updates to BIOS, Motherboard, Windows, and GPU...system is running stable and hovering around 50C.

Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone here for their input on these threadripper builds. Got a lot of useful info over the last few weeks and I’m happy to say I’ll be building my 3990x system this week as well. Looking forward to sharing any findings as I go!
