Aurora R10, memory upgrade

Hi, I have ordered a R10 with the 3700x, RTX 2070 super and 16GB of RAM. If I remember correctly it’s the hyperX fury 2666Mhz.

Since I’ll be doing video editing I wanted to get the 32GB 3200Mhz but the cost of doing so on the Dell website  was significantly more than ordering the same RAM on Amazon...

I would like to order the RAM and I’m wondering if any 2X16GB 3200Mhx XMP kit work? Orb do you have recommendations for this Ryzen system? I found a couple of list for the other R systems but not specific to this motherboard so I would assume what is recommended/tested would be different.

And if that matters in your answer I actually don’t do much gaming at the moment but mainly video editing. I’m thinking 32GB would be enough for now but might consider getting another 32GB of the same memory later if needed. I had a look at the manual and it seems 4x16GB XMP would work.

Here is the HyperX Fury memory kit I purchased directly from Amazon for anyone who is interested:

 r10 ryzen 3900, just overclocked the stock and added the liquid cooler. Been stable a few weeks.

It's interesting that the timings on the r10 Ryzen 5000 series does not match any of the XMP profiles on the memory sticks.

You run at 22-22-22 and that is not in XMP 1 or 2 profile.

I have the same problem with the timing on my memory not  using the xmp profile and running at 3466 with the CL22 instead of 3400 at cl20. 

I have had a support ticket about it open for about a week and a half now waiting for an answer as to why. If there was a good tutorial on manually setting memory timing I would try it to see if the memory will even run at the correct speed.

This page is not the best manual and could use an update:  R10 bios Manual 

It is under performance options, XMP memory. You should be able to select the following from the drop down menu:

- OC1

- OC2

- Manual

 

When you select manual, it will populate all your current settings right below the drop down menu and you can edit them.

Apparently those settings are listed in Hex and not Decimal notation, as reported by some other users. I have not verified this. I also have not tried the manual settings since I have no need for it, but they should work ok.

Since you have a different Bios in your R10 your layout and options might be different than on my R10. I can only report what I see on mine.

Thanks for the link. The hex conversion is where I have the problem.

This might help: Decimal to Hex converter

Just a reminder to people new to the thread to run some memory tests if your going manual overclocking(sometimes these don't even work)...here's a new one I listed like but many out there. Last thing you want to do is get stuck with blue or black screens or need to do a CMOS jumper :). Our Motherboards are manipulated for OEM retail so keep that in mind. It's why we get such a good deal on the product but you need to research if you go third party.

Recently received a new R10 with 5600x, 6800xt and M.2 nvme. I'm now unfortunately aware of the ram issues and for some unknown reason NO support for Smart Access Memory. I see that the Corsair Rgb pro on amazon seems to work. My question is will this work or not???  Model has a E instead if a Z. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/corsair-vengeance-rgb-pro-32gb-2x16gb-ddr4-3200-pc4-25600-c16-desktop-memory/6448612.p?skuId=6448612

im having trouble wrapping my head around this....if the RAM I got has a CAS latency of 16 what should I in put in the bios for the R10? I know when i tried to manually enter the timings for the RAM I got it didnt even have the right numbers for me to select so i am assuming I need to do this conversion but Im having trouble understanding it, even wtih that calculator you linked. 

Timings on the RAM say  16-18-18-36-54.

@Vanadiel my above post was in response to the decimal to hexadecimal calculator you posted

If I remember correctly, some people reported that the manual memory timings are listed in hexadecimal instead of decimal.

If that is the case and you enter 16-18-18-36-54 your actual decimal values would be much higher. Your actual timings would be 22-24-24-54-84

 

Since memory timings in memory modules are always listed in decimal values, it would not give you the correct values.

you would have to enter

@Vanadiel Yea they definite are in hex, I think I got it figured though

16 = 10

18 = 12

18 = 12

36 = 24

54 = 36

 

gonna try it here in just a bit

Yes sir, those hex settings would indeed give you the correct decimal settings.

Looks like I forgot to add them to my previous reply.

 

You can check if what settings are applied with a small utility called CPU-Z, under the "memory" tab.

It will show you your currently applied memory timings. They should be shown as 16-18-18-36-54

 

Let us know how it worked out in the end.
