A new update (version 1.0.1) of the Ryzen Master overclocking utility is now detecting Ryzen CPU temperatures correctly when compared to the previous version. Some users have reportes issues when using AMDs Ryzen Master Overclocking Tool to monitor temperatures of their Ryzen CPUs.Many people complained that they were getting 60C to 70C degrees idle on their Ryzen 7 1800X, 1700X and 1700 CPUs but it turned out to be an issue with reporting. Ryzen Master was using an improper tCTL offset temperature for fan reading, and that one is 20c degrees higher than the original junction temperature. This only applies to the 1800X, 1700X and upcoming 1600X processors. AMD explained this issue on their community update on March 13 where they stated:'The primary temperature reporting sensor of the AMD Ryzen™ processor is a sensor called “T Control,” or tCTL for short. The tCTL sensor is derived from the junction (Tj) temperature—the interface point between the die and heatspreader—but it may be offset on certain CPU models so that all models on the AM4 Platform have the same maximum tCTL value.

This approach ensures that all AMD Ryzen™ processors have a consistent fan policy.Specifically, the AMD Ryzen™ 7 1700X and 1800X carry a +20°C offset between the tCTL° (reported) temperature and the actual Tj° temperature. In the short term, users of the AMD Ryzen™ 1700X and 1800X can simply subtract 20°C to determine the true junction temperature of their processor. No arithmetic is required for the Ryzen 7 1700.
Long term, we expect temperature monitoring software to better understand our tCTL offsets to report the junction temperature automatically.' The new updated version of Ryzen Master utlity detects the true junction temperature.
HWMonitor is a hardware monitoring program that reads PC systems main health sensors: voltages, temperatures, fans speed. The program handles the most common sensor chips, like ITE® IT87 series, most Winbond® ICs, and others. In addition, it can read modern CPUs on-die core thermal sensors, as well has hard drives temperature via S.M.A.R.T, and video card GPU temperature.
This should help more people to have an idea about their cooling performance and adjust their voltage for overclocking.Ryzen Master version 1.0.1 is not available just yet but it will launch on April 11th, which is the same day the new Ryzen 5 CPU lineup will launch. Below is a screen shot posted by AMD comparing the temperature before and after the update.
07:21 AMIn what only can be described as an whoops, ASRock in their CPU support list makes mention of the entry-level AMD Ryzen 3 1200 Processor. The processor would get a 3100 MHz base-clock and gets a 65W.
02:18 PMWebsite El Chapuzas Informatico posted a review on the Ryzen 5 1600 processor. The Ryzen 5 1600 is a six-core, twelve-threades processor that has a Turbo clock 400 MHz under Ryzen 5 1600X and would b. 07:46 AMIn this article we'll take the new G.Skill Flare X 3200 MHz memory kit and have a closer look at the effect of memory frequencies on applications and games. Next to that we'll also address tweaking.

05:32 PMIn the Youtube video below the fold you will notice an AMD Ryzen 5 1400 tested on an ASRock Fatal1ty AB350 Gaming K4. The reviewer tested 10 different games against the budget Pentium G4560 and Intel. 09:22 AMOne of the game titles that we had not benchmarked in our Ryzen review is Ashes of the Singularity. It was only afterwards that I learned this title probably took the biggest hit at 1080p gaming with.
