Hello guys i need some help, some opinion.

I have budget PC

Ryzen 3 1200 stock

Asrock a320m-dvs r.3.0

8gb ram ddr4 Patriot viper 4

RX 560 4gb

This PC is great for me i play only esport's game and sometimes play game like metro low settings.

But i have issue with my memory.

I canno't set up more then 2666 

but ok i decided to leave this.

The problem is in prime95 blend test i have random error with 16-18-18-18-36 2666 but system full stability 

but with settings 14-15-15-15-36 2400 it's everything ok no error in p95.

i'm testing now low timing like 12-15-15-15-36 2400

result in fire strike CL16: 5707

result in Fire strike CL14: 5690

My question is it's will be a big difrence in game?

Every know the ryzen like more speed ram than timings...

What should i do?

Leave 2400mhz and fighting for low timings or leave 2666 with p95 error but system looks good?

Given your low power video card it's not going to make a meaningful difference.

For now i tested and no error with cl 12-13-13-13-32 2400 and i leave this.

But in some weeks i plan to buy rx 570 will be ok with this speed ram and cpu?

And why i cant get 2666 without error?

Dual or singl rank make a difrence to oc speed ram?

Not all RAM will run flawlessly on every motherboard. Your motherboard manufacturer has a QVL list on their support page which lists which RAM modules are guaranteed to run at their rated speeds.

Ok i think i leave this on 2400 cl12 it is not that bad

[barszczu122]

I leave on 2666 becouse on this speed system full stability. 

Occt pass 1 hour

Aida 64 stability test pass 4 hour

Memtest passes 3 

But prime95 blend test fails on 2666 and on 2400 is everything good

Again this CPU is max 26xx for ram - see link in other thread!

[black_zion]

Your motherboard sets the maximum RAM speed capabilities, not the CPU.

[noodles59]

In terms of overclocking, yes, but default speed is what the CPU dictates!

... and overclocking is out of manufacturer's responsibility hence guarantee!
