I don’t understand anything 🙂 I set the xmp profile to 3200, set it to 3266, and everything starts the first time. The strange situation at 3200 does not start, at 3266 yes. Probably a bios error

At least it's working properly now.
And it is running slightly faster which is a bonus. 😄

Mine is randomly locking up with the ram led lighting up. My build has been working fine for over a year now. So weird.

Turns out it was my sound card, which I "altered" by cutting off an LED as it was annoying me. Turns out Creative actually use the SAME circuit for ground (sound blaster z), so that eventually made my pc go crashing as the board would kick in esd protection. That is just hilariously bad design by Creative, and oddly enough, good design by asus.

Edit: Cutting off the 2nd LED seems to have fixed it. Also, Creative does not use the LED circuit for ground.

I learned after updating bios that I would need to clear the cmos, otherwise the board would not boot. You can use a screwdriver as asus cheaped out and did not provide a tiny jumper. Turn off and remove power before doing this of course.

I always set the BIOS to Optimized Defaults and reboot Before a BIOS Update then Clear CMOS after the Update using these steps:
- Unplug the PC (PSU).
- Then press the Power Button for at least 30 seconds (the on board ROG LEDs will sometimes flash after 20-30 seconds to show that all power has been drained from the board).
- Use a flat headed screwdriver to short the CLR CMOS (CLRTC) Jumper (Touch both jumper pins with the screwdriver) for at least 15 seconds.
- Plug the PC back in.
- Press the Power Button to turn the PC on.
- Repeatedly tap the DEL key
- A screen should come up telling you to press the F1 key, do that.
- Set the Optimized Default settings and Press OK (this is on the EXIT tab)
- Save and exit the BIOS.
- Tap the DEL key again to enter the BIOS and change any settings you want changed then save and exit again.

Version 3003
2019/12/269.59 MBytes
ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING BIOS 3003
1. Update AM4 combo PI 1.0.0.4 patch B
2. Fixed a compatibility issue with M.2s when using Ryzen 3000 CPUs.

I've been running it for just over 24 hours now. Hitting closer to advertised boost on my 3600 but avg core voltage with PBO + Core Performance Boost seems higher than before. Easily averages at 1.4~.

Looks like my Core's aren't going to sleep through Ryzen Master like on the previous BIOS either but it might be a setting issue on my end.

Hello guys i have the asus strix b450-f gaming motherboard with the amd ryzen 7 1700x and everytime i oc him he is unstable the tests get me black screen , crashes on games and couple of blue screens.

try memory speed auto, I have 32gb ram 3200MHZ every try to have 2800 2900 3000 3200 is fault, AMD have problems with high speeds RAM

i found a new bios for the B450-F 3103 but it's located under driver tools for some odd reason?? This bios has stopped aura from detecting my motherboard now. can the bios be brought down to last version of 3003?

Hi all i just wondering why my ram ran at 2133 as my corsair vengeance lpx speed is 3200,
1st i try go to bios under ai tweaker i enable the docp and it failed to boot,
Then i try to manually select my speed from 3200 and it only boot at 2815. It really frustrating then someone suggested that i updated my bios and see my current bios 3003 i think and i see alots of update till the latest is 3103,but i saw one of the update has the update for memory overclocking rules but decide the latest one should has all the new fixed, so i download n update the bios, it not boot in 1st time after restart from bios then it boot, and check the msinfo for the update version to confirm, so i proceed to the bios and try again to change my mem speed default is still 2133 so 1 i enable the docp, fail to boot, then manual select the speed from 3200 and endup with 2800, its a bit frustrating as a friend of mine same ryzen 5 2600 but diff mobo can get to 3200Mhz, please can someone explain why i can't up my memory frequency.
