New Agesa released 1.0.0.7B, massive memory speed boost for Ryzen 7000 on AM5, up to 8200MT/s now stable on Ryzen!

version 1516 beta is out for my extreme but gonna hold off until its not beta, had bad times updating in the past with msi and asus, not risking another expensive board

I flashed 1516 beta onto my Gene, its perfectly stable, I wouldnt be surprised if its the final by the end of the week, but to be honest, it doesnt bring anything new for me, cant get anything more out of my ram.

Updated the bios on my Asus Priart X670E and... it can't even boot with the settings it had before updating to 1.0.0.7b. So if you have fully populated ram slots, don't update to the beta bios with 7b, you'll have trouble getting same settings back as before. Currently spent the last 3 hours now testing and it won't accept 128GB at 4000Mhz anymore, 3600Mhz or nothing. As said before, pretty much a nothing burger and if you do have lots of ram, more likely to fluff stuff up instead. Be warned large capacity memory users.
 
Note - Do not disable Memory Power Down with Memory Context Restore enabled on AGESA 1007B. Known issue. To be addressed IN AGESA 1008. Take care!

From Reddit ( confirmed AMD employee ) if that makes a difference.

It's OK to have BOTH enabled or BOTH disabled.

Posting as a reminder for me, but might be of use to others.

having MCR enabled but PD disabled has always given me problems like BSOD's etc, ive never been able to run in this config, for now I run with both enabled, shaves like 30 seconds off the boot time and im willing to accept the un-noticeable performance hit of 1ms off my latency by having PD enabled.

Yeah support for fully populated with 128gb(4x32Gb at EXPO/DOCP) is terrible. My support contacts at various manufactures and at AMD all state the same, they are not supported running at EXPO/DOCP when all 4 modules are installed. Motherboard manufactures state that using in 4x32gb config will only work if the memory is set to auto, frequency set to auto and timings set to auto and the motherboard will figure out what it can run at reliably.

That reminds me, i have been meaning to have a play with some 24gb modules at EXPO/DOCP to see if that can handle 4xModules making 96gb. Same amount of modules but with less chips "should" in theroy lower the burden on the IMC.

From what i was aware, the AGESA update with the 8000 memory modules was for the new 24Gb modules to be supported at that speed not 32gb modules. I thought the upper limit on DDR5 in 32gb modules was 7200.
 

TLDR : c34 @7600 is still no better than c30 @ 6200 / need to be running @8000 before any gains are seen

I don't know what people are expecting, higher speeds with lose timings is no better than lower speeds with tight timings. Who knew????

But have to get 8000MT/s because bigger number make Intel go zoom somehow.

Do let me know if there's any success with that. :)

I may or may not grab new RAM if that's a viable approach. But for me, 96GB isn't enough RAM for what I do so will need to wait on larger capacities anyway. And by that point, just might stay on 3600MHz, but jump to 256GB RAM. As I don't think I gain much in terms of more RAM speed anyway vs the capacity for most of the stuff I do, just minor improvements that I can live without. It's basically the VRAM issue in GPU's, if you have the VRAM, you can run it (slower), but if you don't have the VRAM, you can't run it full stop.

Agreed, its a waste of time unless they bring out 8000mhz CL30 kits, 8000mhz with those timings and running 1:2 is no different than running 6000mhz at CL30 1:1

Theres all these guys on another forum rushing to push their ram on ASUS boards with the beta bios, and posting results, I posted my ADIA64 cache and mem benchmark score with laughing faces showing my ram at 6200mhz CL30 was beating theirs at 8000mhz, they are running no tests, id be surprised if it was even close to stable.........thanks, but I dont want an OS drive full of write errors all over it.

HINT: the forum name is very similar to this one but ends with net
