Processors

[byakko089]

I want to ask a technical question about the characteristics

as you can appreciate in the picture what I want to know is

1) 2667 is the maximum allowed MHz in ram memories to work with this ryzen 5 ?

2) Amount of memory 2, means that it must, run with 2 or more modules, that if you use 1 ryzen would fail?.

I asked these questions because I had an inconvenience with a 3000 MHZ memory that I had at 29xx MHZ and generated a lot of kernel bluescreen and irqs and i wanted to see if this was because I was working the memories at a frequency with which the microprocessor does not know Ored.

1) Nope, gen1 and 2 was ok with 3200 RAM, gen3 (zen2) is able to use RAM at 4000+MHz

2) Dual channel suppoted up to 4 modules, but you can use 1 stick with single channel, halving your total RAM BW

Nick, thank you very much, but your answer is not so accurate, I know this because I work as an IT engineer. What I was trying to find out is something more technical, from someone who has tried or even on the Engineering side of amd (if they pass through here). Since for some reason they put certain specifications in the characteristics, the image I published is of the technical specifications of Ryzen 5 1600, I made several tests and that is why I came to the conclusion of asking, but I wanted someone else to know (testing or verification of the brand knew exactly).

no problem, I had 1700 and 2200G since launch, both were 1st gen zen cores (no zen+), and I build AMD PC's since athlon xp

used them zen1 cores with 1 stick, then OC'd 2 sticks of 2400CL14 RAM to 3200CL18, for daily stuff never had a problem, b350m motherboard by asus prime

same RAM is now at 3600 CL20 under 3600 cpu, I use RAMtest to confirm if its ok

Here is a little bit more specs on the Ryzen 5 1600 CPU: http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Zen/AMD-Ryzen%205%201600.html 

See if this AMD Developer Guides, Manuals, & ISA Documents has the information you are looking for: https://developer.amd.com/resources/developer-guides-manuals/ 

Not sure if it includes the Ryzen processors or not. But you should be able to determine that by looking at the titles.

EDIT: Actually this was the AMD Support site I was looking for : https://www.amd.com/en/support/tech-docs
