Hi, I have a Ryzen 1700x on the ROG x370 hero 6 board. Have been having major issues since day one. The ram Iam using isn't listed on the list for compatibility. My ram is CMK16GX4M4A2400C16 Would this what causing my problems like double boot, Q code errors and slow start up various crashes?
As Johan said, quite likely.
The BIOS implementations prior to Beta's 9943 and 9945, and the current RC 1401 BIOS, did not implement a full set of memory compatibility registers required for overclocked memory (anything over 2133). Since they seem to have "assumed" certain values before, if you had the right RAM, you could go for it.
With the new BIOS, it's still not super-simple to get your memory up to desired speed, but it can be done for chips like yours (and mine) that were not able to previously.
Follow what I did here with one of the new AGESA 1.0.0.6 BIOS I mentioned, but use the numbers from YOUR sticks, not my numbers:

Tired of trolls and mods that act like this platform has no problems and it's the users fault. Later.
