how many hours of reboots and waiting for post id save this. Then again You still got cpu to oc right ?? Or you did 1.35 volts and 4.3 all core ??

Haven't touched the cpu, on cpu z i get 7900 multi core and 520 single core, can you run your 3900x and tell me what you get?
I've generally not found huge boosts from memory tuning on Intel short of going from really slack timing RAM to really tight stuff with a big frequency jump - but the sweet spot for gaming performance on Intel RAM tuning wise isn't necessarily where people think it is.
My 3900X is running stock. I get 7940 multithread and 521.7 single thread in CPU-Z.

Ahh I see, on my x470 ultra gaming board it easily got 8225 multi and 535 single. That's why I'm thoroughly confused by getting a vastly superior board and losing quite a chunk of performance
CPU-Z testing is very inconsistent. I enabled PBO in Ryzen Master and got no increase in score. I set it back to default and got 7971 multithread and 522.2 single thread.¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Still watching.
You’ve almost tempted me to get a 3900X for the crappy X470 mobo now.
Bizarre that you’ve lost performance on the vastly superior mobo. It has to be a BIOS issue, Shirley?
Well I dont have hickups or random crash like at all nto sicne I'w set up my rig to use 1 chiplet for gaming other for system :]
Made small video how i got stuff set up atm: @humbug there ya go 3900x power in actuall use
@Illuminist can You send that junk back and get something that is not gigabyte ?? Or You are stuck with 1 board with crap vrm and other that got good vrm but runs like **** ??
But but... you only need 4 cores

Not impressed at all with AGESA 1.0.0.3 Patch AB.
More bugs:
1. CPU now only boosts to 4.2. It used to do 4.3.
2. Memory speed has now disappeared from task manager in windows.
3. CPU base frequency used to show as 3.6GHz now it is 3.59GHz. Minor but still annoying.
4. No improvement to FCLK 1800MHz ceiling. (Probably just my CPU's IF limitation rather than BIOS)
5. VDDG voltage. I set it to 1.1v as per AMD's documentation. Old BIOS didn't care. This one has a red warning.

Without sounding like a gloat, this is why I’m so happy I’m getting perfect boost speeds on the shipped bios. Just no need to update atm, I can wait until it’s actually sorted.
sure sec Was playing WoW
Well what did I told You and everyone about AB bioses on asus ?? STAY THE HELL AWAY !!!! Thats why I was suprised that Asus decided to put that one on web site after EVERYONE testing said they are CRAP. And by looking here same situation with Gigabyte and that microcode. MSI not even bothered with them at all. Seems ASRock got it somehow working better.
And You know what ?? 1.0.0.3ABB bioses will Also be JUNK cause microcode is Junk that comes from AMD.
@robfosters We get those bioses early and we said to not even bother with them. Everything is worse than 1.0.0.2 across the board.

The only thing that is fixed in this BIOS is I don't have to bump up the frequency in micro hops. I can just set it in one go and it posts.
Fixed 1 thng broke many. Hows rebooting and posting up ?? Cause I know its slower on C7H and takes ages. Also performance is lower even with all core overclocking

Rebooting and posting seemed fine.
What I want help with is tighting my timings at 3600MHz. I'm running 16 16 16 16 36 at 1.35v currently so there must be loads of headway.
But at the moment it's just not having any of it. I think it could be the board. As watching Buildzoid's video that Gigabyte BIOS seemed a lot more tinker friendly than my mobo.
I've tried the Ryzen calculator with no luck. I'll try it again after this BIOS update.
Yes, what i wrote here...
Went from a Ryzen 1600 to a Ryzen 3600 on a GTX 1070, in most games i haven't noticed a difference as the GPU is the bottleneck, however there are some games that are heavy on the CPU or just depend on that single threaded performance, Insurgency Sandstorm has gone up from about 75 FPS to about 100 and that's the GPU now locked to full load, original Insurgency from about 150 to about 200, CS:GO, not that i play it much from about 350 to 600 average, i've seen it peak at near 800, crazy..., PUBG a small increase but with the 1600 the GPU was just about maxed out anyway, now it is, FC5 also a small bump but again it was always GPU locked.
The Desktop fells very snappy, fast, even when i have the CPU under heavy load, like baking lighting in Unreal Engine it still snaps everything you click on fast and smoooooooth.... not much different to the 1600 but there is a small improvement there.
I think it was worth it, i really liked the 1600, this one is better.
Having said that if you have the money for a 3700X just go for that.
My expirience with Teamgroup mem kits and I had 3 is that they did not like CL14. Maybe try CL15 for start ?? I dont have Yours XMP html file dump from thaipoon burner so cant run it over 7 versions of calculator i got
if ya send it over i can have a look
