I have a 1700x partnered with a CH6 and some Flare X F4-3200C14-16GFX 8gbx2 memory, running stock clocks and 2400 mem with bios 1002 the system boots fine from cold, but when i run DOCP Standard to get memory clocked at 3200 C14 it always fails to post from cold boot giving qcode errors F9 & 0d and requires a Bios reset to get in. Once in though and rebooted with settings set on DOCP Standard for 3200 it runs like a dream.
Is there a fix for this cold boot issue or do i need to sit tight for the May update?

ergh!
Not as stable as I thought. Blue screen running COD Ghosts.
Followed by it being unable to post after restarting after said blue screen.
Looks like I can not set memory OC at all without using DOCP - I was trying for just 2666 without adjusting to bclck - I don't get endless reboots, but it just doesn't use the memory speeds I set - just boots at 2400 regardless!
Bloody hell... don't know if I can be bothered to try and get the 4ghz/3gh combo with bclck ajustments running stable. may just be running stock until AGESA comes out.

I use manual setting with 4*8GB:
bclk = 100
DRAM Freq = 2666
DRAM V = 1.3v (1.35v does not work?)
DRAM Boot V = 1.35v
I don’t bother stress testing but have not had any problems. Had a quick go @2933 and @3200 but would not boot so left it @2666 as it does not make that much difference.

To current owners of the CH6, Would the extra this costs over an MSI Gaming Pro Carbon be worth it ?

Unique selling point for me on the CH6 was support for mounting AM3+ coolers.
Just looking through the mine field that is the PC upgrade and this pleases me more than anything i've found as i look for the best components to my budget as it means i can keep my loop intact and not have to refill it...
Plus the obvious cost of saving money on a new block of course.

Wow! Why on earth did it take them so long to update this board to AGESA 1.0.0.4a? This update is over a month old for other boards.
Where all waiting for the next AGESA!

It's been available for ages :/ just as a beta. In fact, it's the exact same BIOS version, just published to the site late. We're also waiting for 1.0.0.5 now

What bios you on now and did you force Gen2 or 3 on the PCIe?
1107 now, I set the blck to 100.0 so it should not affect the PCI-E. I don’t OC the CPU, just bump up the RAM by changing:
DDR freq = 2666
Blck = 100.0
DDR v = 1.3 (used 1.35v on 1002 but on 1107 it will not boot unless I use 1.3v)
DDR boot v = 1.35
and timings = 14,14,14, 34
DDR freq = 2666
Blck = 100.0
DDR v = 1.3 (used 1.35v on 1002 but on 1107 it will not boot unless I use 1.3v)
DDR boot v = 1.35
and timings = 14,14,14, 34
