In this article we'll have a look at the current state of Ryzen. Over the past two months a number of things have changed. AMD issued firmware updates to increase memory compatibility mostly. We'll check that out. But the the trivial question remains, is 1920x1080 performance increasing? It sure as that responsibility is to be found by the software developers.

Thats weird.
Aside from memory swap testing on the ASUS hero board all these tests have been performed on an ASRock board. I have not seen any behavior like you mentioned and am using the Ryzen optimized setting.
For an SSD to reach 100% usage massive amounts MB/s need to be written, you probably are better off looking for the cause of what software in fact is writing that much data every 45 seconds. The application causing it should see increased CPU activity which you can track with the task manager.

So G-Skill is not doing to good still. That is odd as they are one of the largest memory suppliers.

hmmm, I need to comment on that. I have a large number of GSKILL DIMMs, less from the others. So for each 5 GSKILL kits tested I have say 1 from Corsair.
Ergo that is why you see less GSKILL kits pass. Secondly the majority of G.Skill kits are beyond 3200 MHz (which is not supported by XMP in AGESA 1006) and then some of them are 2015 DIMMs. It's clear that AMD has been focusing on the newer memory types for support.
As far as the FlareX Ryzen memory goes, I need to further check as the memory might be broken, on the Asrock setup it even reported back as single channel somehow.

Nice Hilbert.
I'm still seeing some issues with Ryzen balanced power settings compared to high power setting in my Win 10 setup. R5 1600X, AsRock X370 Taichi 2x8gb Corsair LPX 3200mhz ram, 1Tb Mushkin Reactor SSD, Creative ZX soundcard and RX 580.
When set at Ryzen balanced power, I have hitches and pauses every 15-45secs associated with the SSD approaching 100% disc usage, these disappear when I have power settings set to high.
Have you experienced this or have any idea why this is occurs???
