Not yet but I am thinking of. Have seen a few saying(in another forum) there are some bugs that were there before.

Run down of bugs by the guys over at overclock

BIOS works quite well in terms of per CCX overclock - SOC voltage requires a slight increase compared to earlier BIOS to maintain same clocks/profile settings - CSM is bugged and must be enabled, otherwise it won't boot. - Sleep bug - 1:2 mode IF bug exists if the computer wakes up from sleep, if the IF is over 1800mhz. - Another sleep bug - CLDO_VDDG and CLDO_VDDP completely resetting to stock voltages if IF is over 1800mhz. - One user mentioned sound distortion with onboard audio after this update. - 100% fan at boot with NVIDIA GPU (is this standard AMD behaviour though? Is there anything ASUS can ever do about it?)"

highlighted some issues to keep in mind even if you arent playing with new features

Will hold off for the fix in that case

New bios for this board. Seems like 7803 has been removed, 7901 has been released with 1.0.0.6 and 7803's CSM bug fixed. Haven't seen what else yet.

I update to 7901 today, did not try 7803. 7901 seems ok so far, cinebench score is down a few 100 but it's hot in the room so that could be why.

When It comes to RAM speed the cpu makes a big difference. Was unable to go higher than 3200 on a 1700, 3900x can do 3800mhz no problem

Finally got around to putting latest bios on earlier, so far so good.

I just updated, my score had dropped a few hundred as well and thought something was wrong. Just did it again about 20mins after boot and its back to its normal score.

Anyone running a 3800XT and 7901 bios on this?

A month late but (in case it's of any help) I'm running a 3900XT on CH6 with 7901 and it's running fine.

Thanks

Running a 3600XT with 3600c14 with 7901 BIOS. No problems so far.

Overlag · 26 Nov 2020 at 10:30

part of me is thinking of getting a 3x00XT to keep this motherboard for another year. Surely the 5000 series is the last AM4 chip, so dont want to waste money getting a X570 now. Shame 5000 series wont work on this board.

We don't know yet. CH7 BIOS is up. Maybe we get a beta.

Of what?

Maybe we get a BETA BIOS supporting 5000 series. I will eventually get one if we do.

Didnt think x370 was supported at all for 5000?

Where did you see it might be coming to the CH6?

It's isn't and It's not going to happen. The CH6 is dead.

There were rumours on OCNet that somebody hacked a Gigabyte X370 board for support, but not sure anything came of it.

Someone got Zen 5000 series running on an A320 board, so it could happen but I wouldn't hold your breath.
