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
ocpak/octools
FAQ:
7950x not boosting pass 5.5G -> check that CStates is not disabled
Detailed Explanation on CState Boot Limiter
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)
strixe-e 1515
for crosshair and strix e-e:
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.

I haven't followed this thread for a couple months. I still have the an issue since the beginning.
x670e Extreme board, Bios 2604
When CSM support is enabled, all works as it should.
With CSM disabled, I get error code d6 and the white LED and no boot screens when I reboot the system.
With a cold startup, all works normally, just when I reboot the system.
Anyone knows how to fix this?
Thanks in advance

What GPU do you have in your system? Could you share the output of GPU-Z? Sounds like your GPU might be too old or the BIOS on your GPU is acting weird? I'm asking because I think I remember Sapphire and Powercolor having issue with UEFI/CSM off

Thanks for answering
GPU is RTX 4090 ROG Strix OC

UPDATE: Fixed by powering off and unplugging every device and the PC and then waiting 30 seconds and plugging back in. Reboots did not fix it but that did.
2704 that included an unannounced thunderbolt firmware update has broken my thunderbolt DP output. After years of flawless functionality, it just stopped working after this update. Display simply has no output but is detected and changing its settings in AMD software just plays the device disconnect sound. I have tried reinstalling all drivers and swapping ports, its just dead.

Bios 2704 as Final Version available
1.Updated AGESA to PI 1.2.0.3a Patch A. Please update the chipset driver to version 7.01.08.129 or newer to enhance gaming performance in select games.
2.Improved system performance and resolved the PeCoffLoader memory overflow issue for enhanced security.
3.Added support for up to 5200MT/s when four 64GB memory modules (total 256GB) are installed. The exclusive AEMP option will appear when compatible models are populated.

Asus has now posted the official 2704 bios for the Strix x670E-E to both the US and international sites for the board. I'm not sure if it's the same as the one posted to this thread.

For my X670E-A, the hash of "beta" 2704 is identical to the "final" 2704 release.

If the version is the same, it is the same bios
It is very common for a beta bios to be released as an official bios, So don't have to be afraid of beta bios

I already uploaded it a few days ago
You will also need to install the new chipset drivers
AMD chipset driver 7.01.08.129
*Improves performance for 2CCD Raphael and Granite Ridge CPUs
