Hi,

Does anybody knows when there will be a new bios for this motherboard Asus ROG Strix X570-E Gaming.
The latest one is dated 2019-07-05, an there is nothing about which AGESA its using.

Gigaflux, I went through all the settings in Bios 2606 and could not see any setting for ERP ready.


It's under Advanced \ APM Configuration

Hi guys,

could anyone do me a favor? would you kindly check if offset voltage on the core is working as intended?
Because if i set an off set voltage with the minus sign it increase the peak voltage during a CB run and if i set with the plus sign it decrease.

It should be the other way around, am i right?

Do a CB20 nT stock and take note of the peak voltage during the run through Ryzen Master.
Then do da same with an off set, very very small like 0.02500 and tell me if it works as intended.

Bios 2606 no mod

I used to have a stable -.05 offset before installing 2606 (Tested using Prime 95 small fft and also "blend") . Now I am at something like -.0375 with this BIOS version. Any larger with the offset and I will have 2 threads quit on me. I think something may have changed with some aspect of voltages with this version.

To answer your question, when running CB20, I also see the reported peak core voltage in RM being higher with the offset than with none. Not sure that is normal and hadn't looked at that before with my earlier BIOS versions. I guess it could reflect that the requested voltage amount is higher to compensate for the offset. Next time under loads I will look at HWInfo CPU Core Voltage SVI2 TFN values and see if that is doing similar.

Update: Compared logging values in HWInfo during CB20 runs and I found the following:

- With offset in place all of the Core VID Voltage numbers read higher compared to no offset.
- With offset in place the CPU Core Voltage (SVI2 TFN) numbers read lower compared to no offset.
- With offset in place the CPU Core VID (effective) numbers read higher compared to no offset.
- With offset in place the core clocks read higher vs no offset.

Hey first of all thanks for taking your time and this tests.

The same happens to me, and i find it really disturbing. As i said i tested with a +offset too and the peak voltage was lower (that should happen with a -offset).
At +0.02500 the score was almost the same and core clocks read was the same but at +0.05000 peak voltage was 1.18 and the clocks were definitely lower.

With -offset to 0.0500 peak voltage reached 1.32, clocks were higher.

To me this seems like the values in the bios are inverted...in fact if i limit my vcore to say 1V peak voltage is 1V and score is obviously lower.

Edit:

And now i noticed that VCORE LLC too is bugged... level 5 as the Ai Suite stands should push more voltage during full load to fight back the vdroop but instead is less then level 1.
WTH did they do with this bios?!

Today there is a new driver for Audio in the website but I can't get it to work with Sonic Studio & Radar.
I did clean install with DDU and I've tried to upgrade the drivers but the problem still persists.
They've added DTS app though

I believe it does support DTS?..at least according to @Mokichu with his past audio driver reference answers ("What drivers do I need for my Strix X570E?" Ans: "You have an Asus ROG SS3-DTS MB. You need ASUS ROG SS3-DTS driver set") and also via the main page features list for the motherboard:


SupremeFX S1220A CODEC

Dual Op Amplifiers
Impedance sense for font and rear
120dB SNR stereo playback output
113dB SNR recording input
Sonic Studio III
Sonic Studio Virtual Mixer
Sonic Radar III
DTS Sound Unbound

Not sure why they don't list DTS on the X570E specs page such as they do with others such as the Crosshair Viii Hero. Perhaps a copy/paste failure by the page editor.

If it is not meant to be used with our motherboard then why do THEY add this driver to our motherboard?
Anyway, my problem isn't with DTS but with Studio 3 & Sonic 3 that doesn't open at all now saying that the driver isn't correctly installed or that my product isn't supported while the previous driver did indeed support those 2!

On another note, there is also an update on the RamCache III

Not sure but maybe related that @mokichu informed another person who reported problems similar to yours that the updated audio driver package Asus posted for his Strix B550 are incorrect and meant for another board. This could also be the case with X570E drivers that were posted by Asus. I would recommend reverting back to your known working set of drivers or use mokichu's latest set following all the uninstall and install steps exactly.
