Both rev.d and rev.e chips are 8Gb, so I think my existing modules are single rank and the 16GB modules I'm eyeing on are both dual rank.
On one hand Rev. E might be easier on IMC so might be the better choice.
On the other hand if it won't be easy enough on IMC I might as well go with the...
My system has Asus B350M Prime-A/Ryzen 1600AF/2x8GB Crucial Ballistix (Rev.E running at 3000CL15@1.2V)
Now I want to add 1 or 2 16GB module on top of it.
1. After filling 4 slots would those still run at higher speeds or will I have to slow it down to 2666 or something?
I'm asking because...
Voltages and temps seem OK. If it's stable and you're happy with it that's great.
If you want to do more you'll need to do a BSEL mod. You say can't go over 265, BSEL lets you set the 266 as the baseline and then you increase FSB in bios even more. That's why I recommended BSEL as the first thing.
No harm, they're basically the same CPUs with Core 2s except few pins swapped. Modded ones have adapter attached to make them compatible with 775 motherboards. Be aware you may need a modded BIOS for your motherboard but they're often available with a short google search.
Your motherboard...
It's an 65nm processor I wouldn't prefer it. But it's better than Celeron e3300.
45 nm models (and especially E0/R0 steppings) are very good overclockers with crazy cool thermals. So maybe try to get an E8500 or similar.
I'm not well versed in quad core variants (and they might be not as...
Thanks. I didn't read it that way (I associated them with processors in the title), but it makes sense after you pointed it out.
I'll try it eventually and share the result.
In the meantime if anyone has used that configuration before please share your experience. There are some contradictory...
BSEL alone doesn't change the vcore, it only changes the FSB, so it won't damange the CPU. You can do vcore mod on top of BSEL mod if the motherboard lacks voltage settings.
I don't have an experience with that specific CPU but since it's a 200 fsb cpu I doubt it'll go to 333 mhz. But 266mhz...
BSEL mod it ;)
But more seriously, your motherboard has an extensive list of supported CPUs. I'd look more into getting a better CPU, then start overclocking.
I'm looking for a definitive answer from people who've already tried it on this motherboard.
MB: Asus Prime B350M-A
CPU: Ryzen 1600AF
I want to get a x2 (not x4) NVMe for my system. Motherboard has 6 sata ports (4 from the chipset, 2 from the CPU). Will it disable SATA 5/6 or not?
