On the X570? I'd never seen that mentioned.

According to this anyway.

Not a specific one, but you can designate fan headers as pump headers in the BIOS so they must be able to handle the current.

There's a cpu fan header and a cpu/pump selectable header at the CPU socket. All the other headers are pump selectable too if I remember right.

Ryzen Master had me panicked. The "Game Mode" disables one of the CCX making the 3900X a 6 core CPU lol.

should i put it on game mode while gaming? i just left it on default. Better performance?

Im I the only one that cant get the BIOS HD version to work? I have a 1440p monitor and a 1080ti connected via DP.

My X470 Taichi has always been the same, settings on x470 taichi are low or auto, auto never detects hd .. 1440p monitor over DP, Vega 64

Does anyone run their GPU in the second slot? To either free up the USB type C slot or to stop choking the Chipset fan?

Is there any negative to doing this? I believe its a 16x slot, that's wired as an 8x Slot. (so effectively a PCIe 4.0 x 8 slot).

I run it in the second slot due to the USB-C connector issue. Can't say I've noticed any problems doing so but then I'm only running a 1080 and not some super duper expensive card.

I have noticed that Ryzen Master keeps auto switching to PBO when I start a game up, despite me not having done anything to make it do so.

PBO was enabled by default in my BIOS. Have you checked what yours is set to?

I haven't. I'll check that out. Cheers

Is PBO bad? I would have assumed on is best

PBO is good but it seems very variable how these chips boost between PBO off/PBO on/ PBO and Auto OC on. Some people are reporting higher boosts with PBO off for some strange reason.

I'm sure the BIOSes will mature a bit and iron all the odd boost behaviours out soon enough.

Whats the point of the type c front pannel usb socket. My gpu completely covers it!!

Yep there are some stupid things on this motherboard,like when i switch the PC off the rgb on the motherboard stay on. Hopfully it is a bios issue. I am on the latest bios as of today!!

roysters · 29 Jul 2019 at 00:03

Yeah. Been on 1.60 for about 3 / 4 weeks now.

Where is the Auto OC setting in the Taichi. Is it on by default and is it worth it?
