Aurora R10, unable to overlock RAM to 3200mhz 16-20-20-38

​Please help!!!​

​I have a R10, Ryzen 5900x, TRX 3060, BIOS 2.2.1. I bought with 16gb RAM with intent to upgrade after purchase. I just bought to Corsair Vengeance LPX 64gb (2x32) 3200mhz with a timing of 16-20-20-36. Unfortunately, I have tried everything and cannot accomplish this. The SPD is advertised as 2666mhz. I always get 1 of 2 results:​

​1. 2133mhz default reset 15-15-15-36​

​2. 3200mhz 22-22-22-54​

​I have tried via AWCC, restart but no success. I have tried directly in BIOS, Auto/OC1/OC2/Manual, no success. Manual will not give an option for the correct timing. It only goes up to 19 for Trcdrd/Trcdwr/Trp so I select Auto.​

​Here are my results:​

​Auto - 2133mhz 15-15-15-36​
​OC1 - PC shuts down and attempts to boot 2-3x, ultimately booting at 2133mhz 15-15-15-36​
​OC2 - 2133mhz 15-15-15-36​
​Custom (1600mhz, 1.25v, 16-auto-auto-36) - Result = 3200mhz 22-22-22-54​

​When attempting to overclock via AWCC (and failing), after reboot I am receiving this error.​

​INVALID OC MODE​
​Unable to apply OC profile. Please turn off OC in BIOS.​

​So I tried it and this is my result:​

​Overclocking disabled in BIOS, then Overclock enabled in AWCC and restarted. PC powers on but does NOT boot, Alienware logo (power button) is periodically blinking orange. After 15 minutes of power, no boot. I press/hold power button to restart. PC now shuts down and attempts to boot in a cycle 4x before ultimately booting at 2133mhz 15-15-15-36.​

These systems are limited in aftermarket support. It looks like you have memory modules it does not support, which is very common. There's only a few that are known to work.

The validated memory that is supported is as follows:

 

0N6VG 16GB, HyperX Fury XMP DDR4, 3400MHz, 1GBx8, Unbuffered, 288 pin, Dual Rank, 1.35V, Non-ECC, Kingston X0N6VG-HYD2

Try 1.35v. Probably won't work but the voltage is generally the reason aftermarket sticks don't work. Even with that I've gotten 2x16Gb to work but the same sticks same timings same voltage and everything but 2x32gb would not boot at anything other than base JDEC not XMP

So I accidentally got it to work at 3200mhz 16-20-20-38. Then I restarted and it reset. After reading your post I decided to try it again and I found the solution.

In BIOS, manually adjust speed to 1600mhz, 1.35v and leave the rest Auto. Boot system. It will boot 3200mhz 22-22-22-54. However, the voltage is 1.35. Then go into AWCC and select OC2. System will reboot 3200mhz 16-20-20-38.

I restarted the system and the 3200mhz 16-20-20-38 profile remained!! Bravo!

Is this still working for you I have the same R10 but with a 6900xt I can't get my 128gb ram to overclock to 3200 

November 15th, 2021 20:00

Yes it’s still working

On my amd Alienware to manually set the timings, the timings in bios are in hexadecimal numbers.  So google hexadecimal converter like rapid tables website. Convert decimal to hexadecimal. Input your ram timings as listed by the mfg as the decimal and convert to hexadecimal. Do that for all the ram timing numbers, and write them down. When you go to the bios and choose manual. Set your voltage and the timing number that matches the hexadecimal numbers you calculated.  Also the mhz is half of the full intended speed. The fastest I could get mine to run and not crash is at 1733 for the setting or 3466mhz. But I am using 3600mhz Ballistix. Hope this helps if you haven't figured it out yet 

 

My timings are 16 18 18 18 38

The input in bios is 10 12 12 12 26

Thanks @Sbkills I had the same Ballistix BL2K8G36C16U4B ram and can confirm these same settings (1.35V 10 12 12 12 26) worked for me. I should have noticed the input options were hexadecimal!

www.twitch.tv/sinfulsavant   I just overclocked my system to 3800MHz. Here are my system specs. Alienware Aurora Ryzen edition R10. AMD Ryzen 7 5800 3.40GHz. 48GB of corsair 3600MHz ram. Nvidia 3060 12GB LHR. 

My ram when I installed is was only at 2100 MHz and I followed all the other comments in this section but it only caused my PC to not want to boot. I found a video that I will link below that boosted my ram to 3800GHz. Both task manager and Alienware command center both confirm my new speed and my bios saves the settings after reboot. Here is the video

https://youtu .be/hAPFexpSed0     Remove the space I put before the .be. also I am not affiliated with this creator 

I can not play steam at max settings without crashing. Currently I am running memtes86 and will update my comment when it is Finnished (it takes 4-5 hours) .

I need some help... First, worst mistake I made was buying an Alienware. I should of gone Lenovo. 

Ok, that out of the way. 

My PC Aurora R10 - Ryzen 5800 - AMD RX 6800 XT - Crucial Ballistix 3600 32GB (2-16GB)

 

I set my BIOS to - 1.35V 10 12 12 12 26

My timings were - 16 18 18 18 38

 

Now, after a few days and a couple restarts it reverted back to default, I went into the BIOS and set it exactly the same, saved and now my timings are -- 16 18 18 38 80

 

Can someone help me figure out what happened?

 

Thank you

yes, modules were not stable at 16/18/18/18/38, so it did a memory training cycle and reverted to default JDEC profile.

These systems have limited aftermarket RAM support, and it's not uncommon to run into these kind of issues when using aftermarket memory modules.

The only modules guaranteed to work are the original OEM modules.

Right, but why would it reset and then when I put the same settings it gets that high 

Installed RAM

I set my BIOS to - 1.35V 10 12 12 12 26

My timings were - 16 18 18 18 38

Timings reset to default

Re-input same settings and got timings below.

Timings now - 16 18 18 38 80

 

Why did my tRAS and tRC jump up so high? Is it just because it's an Alienware  ?

I think you are already aware of this, but all manual values have to bet set in HEX instead of DEC.

And because of the limited aftermarket support, retail modules might cause side effects like retraining on bootup and different settings than what you entered.

 

October 27th, 2022 18:00

Instead of telling me how to fix the problem Dell emailed me to tell me they edited my post because I broke their terms of service by saying bad things about Alienware.

 

Can't make this up, if you are a buyer, do NOT buy Dell.
