ROG CROSSHAIR VI HERO

I'm still on 9945. It's running perfect, so there is no need for me to move on to latest BIOSes.
I guess that's it, maximum we can get for memory performance/speeds. There might be just some tweaks here and there but if you're happy how it's running ...:)
 
If I remember it under the cmd part of the bios,i had to hunt for it to turn it off on my board.
 
Heres where it is mate.
AMD CBS\UMC COMMON OPTIONS\DRAM MEMORY MAPPING
I also disabled Vrm spreadspectum in the Digi + and make sure if you have your memory in A2 B2
SO far this borard has been very easy to clock with as well just glad I got it when it was on offer.
 
I swapped the boards, updated BIOS, but have some issues booting Windows 10 64bit from the Samsung m.2 disk.
It is hit or miss, I always have to press F8 and select the boot media to have a chance (BIOS is setup defaults). It then goes black and I see either the BIOS settings screen or the Windows logon.

There is lots of settings about UEFI or Legacy... not sure if this needs anything changing. There are no boot loaders on other drives.

I think it has to do with these X1, X4 or GEN1-3 settings for PCI-E. It is currently set to Auto.

Any help welcome here, I can only boot by hitting F8 and manually choose my m2 drive.
There seems to be an option missing here for m2 mode? http://imgur.com/nxl7qCg
And this is what I have for m.2 link mode: http://imgur.com/tmv6tJr

The memory on the other hand, DCOP profile 4 (apparently 2666MHz) is reported as 2.9GHz bt CPU-Z: http://imgur.com/Mtvzujz
And works spot on without issues.
Though Userbenchmark detects it as correct 2666MHz: http://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/4523746#MEMORY_KIT
Compared to MSI, anything above 2133MHz would result is crash hangs or boot failure. Lately I had random reboots with MSI X370 so I swapped to Asus now.

OK, I installed a bootloader to the Intel SSD, got the drives in good condition now:

FYI: on the first Windows install to the m2 drive, it created an MBR partition, those cannot boot UEFI. I did now remove all drives, reinstall Windows 10 64bit from USB and it created a GPT table, in fact it warned me this time I cannot install to MBR.
It created a small partition with the nvme driver and boot information, one small recover partition (400MB) and the main partition for the OS.
As boot drive I now use "Windows m2 Boot Loader"

I could do with some help on this board too please.

Luckily my 8pack 3200 ram is stable, but im having rather odd behaviour with the CPIU when I try to set the Vcore to anything other than auto (tried 1.3-1.4). It locks my 1800x to a 22x multiplier. Core temp then shows the VID at 0.9 not the 1.35 when I have auto selected. Manually changing my multi does nothing.

I was trying to stabilise the Vcore. CPUz was showing it bounce from 1.2 to 1.51 in auto which I didn't like.

1403 bios.
 
OK MSI Titanium and Asus Hero X370 both random power loss.
I ran the MSI for a few weeks before it started, kept updating my BIOS. The Asus ran for maybe two days before it started. What would be a BIOS without the latest AMD code?
 
My board keeps changing my ram settings buy itself,all I need to do is reboot at its back to mormal

Sounds like it's failing the training on boot. Try setting the DRAM and DRAM Boot voltage to 1.375v.

There is a cold boot issue with this board for a lot of users, there's a fix in BIOS 9920. With this BIOS it POSTs with standard SPD timings and then applies the BIOS timings afterwards to get around this issue.
 
Mine does that too! I'll take a look at that setting aswell. :) If i turn it on from being off it will boot, go off, boot, go off, and then boot ok at the third try. If i restart while using it its also fine.

There's also a setting that will re-try training several times before defaulting. I forget where it is, under the CBS menu maybe?
