Guy who bought one of the first R5 1600s, is having issues overclocking (3.9GHz crashes) and RAM isn't going past 2133MHz.
Appears to be with MSI Tomahawk B350 motherboard.

Thoughts? Is this a sign of issues across most R5s or do you think it will be resolved?
Hasn't been officially released yet I'm sure there are some bios updates when it does
You have to go back.

Probably is doing something like trying to unlock the extra two cores. You'd get similar shit with some settings on older AMD CPUs.
Source: my 720 could unlock the 4th core but it'd only run at 3.2ghz (stock 2.8ghz), other three hit 3.8ghz so I kept it off.
Any issues the r7 chips have will carry on down the line. They are, afterall, nothing more than binned variants of the same die. If you believed otherwise you're retarded.

CCX problem won't exist on the APU variants at least.
