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.

Anyone know if there is a way to lower pch voltage from bios on a b650? When using the m2 connected to pch, pch temp goes from usual 55C to 80C or even more. Seems like a lot just by using the m2 slot.

There's not much you can do about it. I replaced the thermal pad, which dropped the temperatures significantly.

PCH temps will certainly rise when drives are connected due to the increased current draw. 80C is within spec, but you might want to look at the airflow and the thermal interface material if this is at idle, as already suggested

ASRock is already out with AGESA 1.3.0.0a. With so many AGESA versions coming out in just a few short months, I have no idea how you people find the will to update BIOS and redo & retest everything so often 🙂

are you on lastest version of windows?

Yes, the very latest

You are most probably using more negative Curve Optimizer than your CPU can take. It always causes a total freeze when that happens. Working Curve Optimizer values can vary between different bios versions.
