Any idea whats in it at all ?

Basically AGESA 1.0.7.1, support for newer processors, has the dram boot fix from earlier test BIOS.

Indeed.

3008 tests OK, very similar to 9920 in performance. Stable with good memory performance.

I have one hiccup to report. I set DOCP 1 (optimal settings) which gave a 110 base clock and 27.5 multiplyer, to try that out. I then tried using my pstates OC but could not get a reported clock > 2750MHz in Windows. I reverted to default settings, then set DOCP standard and all is now working as it should.

Flashed 3008 yesterday, no changes for me. Mem still at 2933

Still have the issues with cold boot. Takes 2 attempts

like 9920, 3008 works fine for me with no issues.

Nope, nada, zilch.

Good luck!

I expect some more information soon, I'll try and remember to post back here.

SupraWez · 21 Dec 2017 at 09:49

That would be great thanks

Yaayuh! · 21 Dec 2017 at 09:57

It's just a test BIOS with latest work from AMD.

Edit: you saw nothing.

Saltank · 23 Dec 2017 at 07:47

Do you guys get a lot of static/hiss using the analogue audio out ports?

clone · 23 Dec 2017 at 08:13

I never did,I've got a soundcard and tryed the onboard with no problems.

DarkHorizon472 · 23 Dec 2017 at 08:37

Seems fine to me using analogue ports and onboard sound.

Saltank · 23 Dec 2017 at 09:54

I've got JBL LSR30X's and have some serious noise. Had to switch to a USB interface because there was so much interference, really quite disappointing tbh, for all their marketing of how good the onboard sound is..

That latest beta bios is the best one to date, i'm only 3.8 pstate clocking but I can't fault it yet. Last official has lots of fan issues for me.

Just updated my sabertooth FX to a CH6 Hero and have a couple of questions on my X61 AIO cooler, I have connected the SATA power as before and connected the two radiator fans to the CPU_fan and CPU_opt, the original X61 CPU_pwr connector is now connected to the AIO_PUMP header on the mobile and the X61 USB connector is connected to the mobo USB 2 header.
1. As I am not using the X61 CAM software do I need the USB connection as I could do with the USB header back
2. As I am using the mobo fan control for the radiator fans what do I set the AIO_PUMP setting to in the bios, auto, pwm or DC I assume the pump will be running at full speed all the time, does it need the AIO_PUMP connection or is the X61 built in SATA power connection sufficient.

Cool

Sooo do we think we will get a BIOS update to fight off the Meltdown / Spectre Exploits?

From what I have read one can be patched by software vendor, the other two dont appear to be a big issue for AMD due to the architecture differences.
