C6H Test BIOS 0020 with AGESA 1007 (405200c4e299c1eed9a0044edec9aba51f37cee1d70caabe40b9485b0604521a)

In order to get back to an older version after flashing, you have to use USB BIOS Flashback.

Let me know how it works for you, especially regarding cold boot issues. Any confirmed bugs in the bug report form please




Beta BIOS 1501

* Workaround for some CPUs stuck at 22x ratio if using override voltage
* Fixes PCIEX4 bandwidth setting getting lost after power is removed
* Same DRAM boot behavior as 1403 (no cold boot fix)
* Same DRAM profiles as in 9920
* Still has the Vcore value issue when booting with Offset Mode and switching to Manual Mode

UEFI build 9920 for the C6H:

* Improved DRAM cold boot, results in slightly longer POST time
* Fix for CPU Ratio stuck at 22x on some CPUs when using Vcore override/offset
* SenseMi Skew is now Disabled by default. If you want to return to previous behavior set SenseMi Skew = Enabled and Offset = 272.
* Added DRAM profiles for Samsung B-based DIMMs with tuned subtimings, including The Stilt's settings



C6H beta UEFI 1403

* Fixed W_PUMP and AIO_PUMP speeds during POST
* Fixed Fan tuning sometimes failing
* Fixed a few issues with AMD USB3.1 ports
* Some tuning on DRAM settings, let us know how they work for you. tRDRD_Sc is still at 5 above 3500 MHz as it helps with stability. For performance you want to force this to 1. We'll consider changing this in future releases as the performance impact can be quite noticeable in certain applications.

An update on DRAM Boot Voltage, currently it should be 1.35V by default if the DRAM Voltage is changed. So if you're setting DRAM Voltage to above 1.35V, you might want to sync this setting. Additionally there might be scenarios where you will have better luck by syncing DRAM Boot Voltage to DRAM Voltage even at lower values.




AGESA 1006 RC4 official UEFI 1401

Just tested quickly 3600 memory and cold booting, seems good but you guys are going to have to help me test this before we have a judgement. Seems CPU temp reading from SIO now has -20*C offset for XFR enabled CPUs.





UEFI build 1107





Older test builds:


Test BIOS 0079

Test BIOS with new AGESA 1004a, with a couple of bugfixes. Up to 5% performance increases in specific applications. Also has P-state overclocking working with BCLK increase. If you want to keep C-states, make sure to set Advanced\AMD CBS\Zen Common Options\Global C-state Control = Enabled. There are two new settings under AMD CBS\UMC Common Options\DDR4 Common Options\ you might want to take a look at, Fail_CNT and ProcODT. Fail_CNT decides how many times to retry when DRAM training fails (F9 -> 0d), default is now 1. ProcODT can help improve your DRAM overclocking. There's a setting available also on previous BIOSes under AMD CBS\UMC Common Options\DRAM Memory Mapping named BankGroupSwap. If you have 2x Single-Rank modules you can try setting this to Disabled and you might see some performance boost in certain applications.

Test BIOS 0081

Same as 0079 but has ProcODT default = 53.3 ohm

Test BIOS 0082

Same as 0081 but with a DRAM compability patch for the below part numbers

There has been a 1001 bios available here from a sticky at the top of this forum. I assume it is that with some other fixes. 1001 set the memory from being always at T2 to always at T1. Maybe 1002 gives it as an option now. Hopefully, it also adds more supported memory sets; No new qvl list up yet though.

I cannot get the 1002 bios file to read in the bios EZ Flash. Just tells me it cannot read the file. I was running 0902 and was having some trouble completing a render blender without crashing so i tried the 1001 version. Everything was running faster(and hotter) and was still having the occational crash. before i could load up the 0038 to see if those timings worked better something overheated crashed and scrambled bios. I was able to reflash the 0902 with the Bios Flashback feature (thank the maker) computer seems to be running ok, no crashes so far (not sure what changed between this 0902 setup and the last run of it). However my RGB onboard lighting is totally glitched out and not functioning. i just saw there was the 1002 version up officially now so was hoping that might help reset the LEDs. I downloaded twice now but just cant get bios to read the file.

Asus CH VI bios 0902
R7 1700X
16GB G.skill Flare X 2666/18-18-18-43 (was the fastest version of the Flare X ram i could find when it was first released. I should have waited)
Gigabyte GeForce 750Ti 2GB Windforce
WD 250GB SSD
WD 1TB HDD

Here are the release notes (ish).

New BIOS 1002

Nothing fancy just a couple of bug fixes like CPU Core Voltage setting can cause previous unsaved value to be loaded, a voltage setting issue with TurboV Core and primary display selection incorrect when plugging in bottom 4x slot.

Same for me about 1001. Can you try rear bios usb. When i tried 1001 from bios options, it said can not read at %70 i tried rear panel it's updated. Plug your flash, push and hold 3 sec bios button(if you did not try this)

I tried the same, both ways, and it completely killed my PC. Had to go back to version 902, hope they do an official release soon!:(

Just a longshot (and forgive me for saying this) but have you tried to rename the file to C6H.CAP?
When i purchased my board, i did the "USB back button BIOS update" thingy to 0902 and afterwards, i was able to flash 1001, 1002 (beta) and now the official one without a single problem.

Of course, i did all these while renaming the CAP file to C6H.

Maybe this could work?...

Has anyone tried 1002? After getting my system to be stable with 1001, I'm afraid to update to 1002. I'm leaning on no since the only issue I'm having is with my f4-3200c16q-32gtzr to oc at 3200mhz. Best I can do is 2666. I read from Asus that they probably wont have a major ram update until May. Luckily, I've saved each bios on my flash drive, well I only have the last 3 revisions. Ahhh hell, I'll update and if I'm able to boot, I'll let you guys know.

I had the 0902 and could run 2666. But now with 1002 only 2400. It might be t1 timing.

I'm at 3200 14 14 14 14 34 om Gskill F4-3200C14D-16GTZR on 1002.

i didn't think there was an issue getting 2 dimm's to 3200, i thought it was getting 4 dimm's upto 3200 that was causing problems.
