AMD Zen 2 (Ryzen 3000) - *** NO COMPETITOR HINTING ***

Will z390 boards get PCIE4 bios updates?

intel being intel. probably not.

Will z390 boards get PCIE4 bios updates?

Probably, they'll be called z490 and will be available to purchase from all good computer parts retailers

Huh, how would that occur? Intel do not have any PCI-E 4.0 capable CPU's, and when they do you can bet they won't work on a Z390/Z370 board.

IPC anyone?

I don't know, that's why I asked. 9 series worked on z370 so maybe 10 series will go on z390

Sorry to hear this. I don't think it's normal. What are you doing with the laptop to cause its fans to spin all the time? Normally, the fans begin to rotate when you load the CPU or GPU a lot.
For a comparison, my Acer Nitro 5 is perfect in this regard, I hear the fans maybe not more than 5 times a day, and they become audible for no more than 5-10 seconds.

Which is your laptop's brand and make? I would try to write to their support for new BIOS/firmware, and then RMA if not helps.

I am doing nothing. The laptop is literally idle with its fans going constantly, I guess they ddin't think to put a zero-RPM mode in it but the point is that small fans are always annoying, unless they're programmed to not spin up except in a few circumstances where they're actually needed.

Comparing IPC on an epyc chip for Ryzen desktop may well be a mistake. 4 days till AMD event now?

I hope that new law the US made,does not affect AMD since it has kind of screwed over Huawei and Google. It affects how much tech US and Chinese firm can transfer between each other,and AMD is involved in this:

A week today to go

Exciting stuff!

Chipset fans, etc. are usually always on rather than temperature or load controlled and often make a bad whining noise one thing I do find with Windows 10 is that more often than not when I first turn on it is doing prep in the background for the next lot of updates or other background tasks (the anti-malware service likes to hog a lot of CPU time sometimes) which keeps fans working harder for longer on laptops, etc. (and impacts battery life) putting my main laptop back to Windows 7 it rarely even spins up the fan at idle versus 10 where it would take like 40 minutes of uptime before it was quiet at idle.

I was going to say the same thing, it smells very familiar.

Windows 10 is terrible for spying and background tasks and servicehost updates, even when you tweak the registry and disable the tac-ons. I wouldn't be suprised if reviewers get affected by their benchmarks, unaware of the resources being run.

I've often wondered on that point - it isn't unusual for the anti-malware service for instance to spin up and sit there using 40% CPU for half an hour, etc. of its own accord.

I call fake, we're going to need a picture of the opened box sans AS bag I'm afraid.

I wonder how this Trade War between the US and China, affects PC Components, mainly AMD Ryzen 3000.
The tariffs are escalating.

Those and the indiscriminate updates against exploits like MDS. I love Win10, though. It's so stable.

Hey, nothing fake about that box. That's a real box. It is, however, just a box

Yeah, you can't fault it for reliability. People tend to become a little complacent with these things.

Interesting use of the logo on that box, AMD Ryzen 3000 Desktop Ready.
