Update the BIOS then we can tackle the OC. Depending on what version you are on it might change the layout and function.
ok updated BIOS. managed 3.7ghz at 1.25v but with amd cool n quiet disabled for sometime before resetting to defaults to start afresh.Now no matter what i do now the CPU is stuck at 2.8ghz . same story again. also isnt cool n quiet supposed to increase life of CPU? should I disable that?Update the BIOS then we can tackle the OC.

Yes I am in the OC menu and i have set frequency to 3.7ghz and voltage to 1.25v. Btw if i set voltage as auto, I can easily get to 3.7ghz. Is auto algorithm harmful in long run? I read somewhere the auto might push the voltage beyond acceptable limits ?
I have now set it to auto for now and hwinfo64 shows voltage max 1.24v after 10 mins of prime95. i feel msi' s auto voltage logic is good enough.
BF1 after 1 hour showed max 64 degrees as well.
Meanwhile lemme head over to msi forums and check for workaround.
The procedure I like best. Download the "bios" version of the bios, and put it on a usb memory stick. Then boot to bios (in default settings), then use the bios utility to flash. On my =ASRock, I have to press F6 at the post screen to get this to work.
I have 3 Taichi's. 2 TR and one Ryzen. From all I have read (and experienced) they are the best, or tied with the best. Not sure on how many sata ports it has, but you could add a card. As far as load, all three of mine are at 100%load 24/7/365. No failures so far, and I don't expect any,I know you've mentioned you have a Taichi mobo, was that for TR and Ryzen, or do you just have the TR rig? If I pickup a Ryzen rig for BF I want a mobo that can safely push a 1700/1700x 100% load on 7 cores mining XMR or GRC 24/7 for many many years. It will also be a media and minecraft server for my wife and kids.
Thoughts on choice of mobos? 10 Sata ports is a must which really limits things.
Asrock's site says the Taichi has 10 SATA ports.I know you've mentioned you have a Taichi mobo, was that for TR and Ryzen, or do you just have the TR rig?

I still have yet to build an ITX Ryzen but it's still on my to do list... was looking at the B350 board from ASRock a few days ago. doesn't seem like any new boards are going to be introduced at this point.
I think I would likely use the R3 1200 and replace one of the A10-7970 APU, though I finally got the display drivers on Linux dialed in for that.
Loads for me. On Comcast.I can't get either of those pages to load...
msferre, Make sure that you don't install any of the Gigabyte software off the driver disk. A lot of their software is known to cause issues. Just install the drivers only.
Also, try running your ram at 2133MHz as well.
Hi, all - I hope this is the right place to mention this. I recently built this computer:
GIGABYTE GA-AX370-Gaming 5 (rev. 1.0) AM4 AMD X370 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard
AMD RYZEN 7 1700X 8-Core 3.4 GHz (3.8 GHz Turbo) Socket AM4 95W YD170XBCAEWOF Desktop Processor
CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3000 (PC4 24000) Memory Kit Model CMK16GX4M2B3000C15
However - with Windows 10 installed, I'm having trouble with a BSOD. The error in question is Driver Power State Failure. Now, it happens in the following circumstance -
I turn on the computer.
When it reaches the login screen on W10, all I have to do is wait one minute or so (regardless of me logging in or not at all) before the above BSOD shows up. Then it restarts, then I have to wait a couple of minutes before the BIOS screen shows up again, then the W10 login screen appears. It's fine after that.
So it's every time I start up the computer after it powered down.
One of my friends thinks it has to do with Ryzen being too new for Windows 10 to adapt to. Is he right? What do you think is happening? Thank you all!
I don't think I've installed any Gigabyte stuff - but I'm not sure how to "run" my ram at a certain speed?
From what you are describing, it doesn't sound like a fresh Windows 10 install. Am I correct in this assumption?
right after you turn the machine on you'll want to enter the BIOS (typically accomplished by striking the DEL or F2 key). that should get you into the board's controls and you can set some manual options there. however, for troubleshooting purposes I would suggest leaving the defaults and only attempt to load a memory profile for now. the OS should have no problem with the processor at all--or any of the other hardware for that matter.
once you get it to boot, you may need to restart it again because windows is going to want to load drivers for the devices. that's typically fine, but I would still insert the driver disk and run only the drivers (as previously stated) to tie up loose ends.
