Yes I agree, makes me wonder why there is an ASUS bios floating around out there thats not on the boards website but labelled 1410, however there is also a beta bios on the boards website labelled 1401 ???
Not non functional, as per GNs video, theyve just not fully utilised all the features, he said they were simply being lazy, im pretty sure this can be done with bios updates.
It doesnt need to be thoroughly tested now though, they know what the problems are, they just need to test those parts.
Im surprised you are needing that much SOC voltage, im running 1.15v SOC, 1.25v MC voltage and 1.1v MISC, Ryzen 9 7900 and my ram specs are the same as yours, 6000mhz, but CL32, however im using buildzoids tightened ram timings, I ran memtest pro yesterday for 14 hours, no errors, 3000%.I’m so ****** off with this I would return this crap if I was still within 14 days return policy.
I don’t want to run soc at 1.3v as GM showed that actuall voltage can be higher by about 0.05v and who knows if not more.
Right now I’m running with manual soc voltage.
Started at 1.23v and had a reboot after few hours of use (it rebooted when idling)
then increased it to 1.24v and again had a reboot after a while.
I’m now at 1.25v.
Should have gone Intel after all.
what difference does any of that make ?
Yup, one post is on twitter from a everyday joe, like every CPU that has died whether it be in an ASUS board, Gigabyte Board, MSI Board or ASRock board, so again, what difference does it make.
I think hes something to do with Thermal Grizzly, unless thats just who he uses to bunk manufacture his products
ummm no, ASRock have had 2 chip failures, Gigabyte and MSI 1 to what we know of, all for the same reason, the motherboard has continued to pump current into the chip and fry the socket even after the chip has died causing the socket to burn and the chip to swell up, 1 of those was at default settings for everything, it was one of the chips sent into GN, how many have ASUS had ?
I agree on the last part "if hes telling the truth", however, 4min 40sec in the GN video, User Skyfish lost his chip on a Gigabyte motherboard, he wasnt running EXPO, No OC and running factory settings, the motherboard survived though, the chip still died in the usual way'ish, he had only just finished the build, had booted to the bios once on bios F2 and was in the process of updating the board to bios F5 when the chip died.
I'm running g.skill trident z neo 6000mhz CL32 with the soc at 1.15v and and the MC voltage at 1.25v using buildzoids easy DDR5 timings.
It's still quite a small number when you think about how many chips they sold, I think it was first noticed when the first 7800X3D went pop, then everyone started checking their chips, it just a big thing because let's face it, if it was just 1 they would probably just brush it under the carpet, but as it's a few it's made headlines in the tech world, and become something that must be fixed, I'm sure AMD and board partners don't want to have to eventually replace everyone's CPU and motherboard.
We'll look at it this way, I'm running an Asus board with a 7900 and I'm using overclocked settings on my ram, granted I've hard set my voltages but it seems this isn't enough, however, me along with a shed load of other people are still using our systems, we've not just switched them off and put them away in a cupboard somewhere to collect dust until the issue is fixed, so really it's up to you, but there's a lot more working chips than there is killed chips.
Thanks, I did flash the test version of 1410 on my Gene, however, the Gene site is still showing 1401 as a beta, not 1410 on the official site yet.
Lol thanks, just had a look, yup it's there on the UK site for my board too.
You need to F7 and be in the advanced menu to see all the voltages and what they are running at.
Just hit the bios reset button on the back of the board......if it doesn't have one, use the jumper, default settings.....here I come.
Take Gigabyte for instance, it takes them ages to move their latest bioses out of beta status, like they gave up on them, and when I say ages, I mean months and months, it had to be at least 9 months before they moved a bios for my X570S master out of beta to final, and when they did, if I remember correctly the beta for AGESA V2 1.2.0.7 came out 2 weeks later, thats only recently been moved to final and a new beta for AGESA V2 1.2.0.8 is now available, now if I dont flash those beta's, i'll of been missing out on the latest fixes etc for god knows how long, so I know the disclaimers may say a beta isnt covered, but I really dont think they could deny you a warranty repair or replacement because you board has a beta bios on it, I mean hell, they put them on the site for the public to download and flash.It's actually worse because if you install a beta BIOS and your motherboard dies, it's not covered under warranty. Check their disclaimers on every website (coz I cba)
So, as far as I'm concerned, as long as there are only beta BIOS available they still haven't actually fixed the problem.
