X670 / X870 resource thread

[Shamino]

ill use this thread to collect some new test bioses for the boards, maybe also to explain some less understood options

to disable cores ccd go here and choose ccd xx bit map down core.
each ones stand for an enabled core
best to disable from the back, ie:
110000
instead of 0011000
after selection press downcore apply changes or discard if made mistake

7950x not boosting pass 5.5G -> check that CStates is not disabled

Test BIOSes:

new:
X3D OC Preset for those MB with asynch BCLK Support: (for simple slight perf boost for X3D)


DOCP/EXPO Tweaked: (for simple timings tightening)

explanation of segment2 Loadline:

customize a heterogenous loadline for a dual segment workload range.

example above shows loadline=L6 when current is in range of 0~40A, and Level4 when current is above 40A.

Adds for x3d

dynamic ccd priority switch with core flex, os / driver agnostic so win10 win11 ok





Algo as follows:
If condition reached and ccd0 specified, then check current mem/cache activity > threshold and hysteresis reached, if fulfilled then switch
If condition reached and ccd1 specified, then check current mem/cache activity <=threshold and hysteresis reached,, if fulfilled then switch
Default hysteresis =4

Can combine multiple algos for ccd priority so combinations are wide

works on non x3d too but of course senseless on it. detailed explanation here.

Hi, yes I do. I wish they would actually have a bit of a change log rather than the generic 2 line summary, they may as well not give any notes on bios changes.

Summary of new 706 bios on my X870E Hero;

-I didnt try the beta since 606 was trash and waited for the final version of 706.

-I am using my x870e Hero @DDR8000.  Flashed the new bios, entered my old settings manually. Saved as new profile.

-It booted normally within a reasonable train time. Did some benches, and it gave around %2-5  lower scores. I didnt try new added settings (game mode etc) all was on auto.

-Cinebench, counterstrike, aida, y crouncher etc was all lower. (y-crouncher PI-1B dropped from 11.3 to 12.2 secs for example) (Aida latency was same btw. ~59 ns)

-I said hmm, maybe they loosened the memory topology a bit so people can do 8000 mhz easily. And i changed one setting to test again.

-Boom, stucked @2F error code. Reboot, load the settings that worked at first try. No chance, stuck at same error code again. Bios reset, same settings, no chance. I tried a few more bios resets and re-enter settings manually, no chance. Somehow it booted with one of my tries. I changed one more setting, new memory train, boom, error again.

- I downgraded back to bios 505. With my saved profile. Everything is fine again...

TL:DR: You can pass this bios.

If I’m on 0705, does it’s better to try the 6 or stay on 5 ?  

[krosette]

You can try. But the new one isn't working for most of us. This BIOS is the biggest waste of lifetime. I tried for over 20h to get it to work. No chance. I don't know why Asus is releasing as stable this after all geeks testing it complained already.

Currently using x670e hero + 7800x3d temps were normal before updating to 2604. Now after the update temp are so high 60-70 under light load and when im downloading games it spike up to 89 and some time crash but it sit around 85 when gaming

Tried revert back to old bios then reapply thermal patse and then fresh install the window still nothing

[krosette]

Clear CMOS (button in the back of your mobo), load Optimized defauls, make your settings. Expo, curve and whatever you had before. 

[ThinhK]

I did that run with default bios setting but still high temps

[ThinhK]

Also i tried pbo -40 all core i was running the finals no crash but i revert it back the next day to -30

[BitingChaos]

Tried 2604 on my X670E-A. 

My system shuts off with *any* EXPO setting enabled. The system then POSTs into "safe mode" and clears a bunch of settings. I could do 6400 on 2506, now I can't even hit 6000.

I'm trying to re-flash 2506 now. 

[krosette]

Same problem like most people reading this. Flashing back to 2506 is the only option. I tried for 20h all kind of settings and different RAM and bought now an other mobo. Not because 2506 is not stable, but because Asus releasing a BIOS knowing about the problem.
