Has anyone updated to Bios 1503? Please report stability results her.

I updated to 1503, do have 1 issue with it thou. 

I have corsair dommentor rgb ram, well now on start up only one dimm lights up? 

It did not do this before I updated to this new bios, everything was normal. 

If I launch Icue, then both dimms light up? 

Very werid, I know the bios is a beta so will try the full release when it comes out. 

Other than that all seems normal to me?

14900KS here, no issues running this (so far) where I would have crashing within minutes on 62/59 default under light or no load, even with E-Cores disabled and on Intel Defaults. Running the Intel Extreme default my temps seem to be about 5 deg C cooler under my usual approx 20% HQPlayer upsampling load. 

I typically won't crash in benchmarks, but will crash under light/no load with either hard crash and reboot or occasionally BSOD with various messages. Stable for 5 hours straight now.

So far it seems positive. Quick XTU benchmarks are in the same range as before. I'll report any weirdness.

So this is what I am talking about with my Dimm's, after updating to this new beta bios. 

I have tried uninstalling Icue and reinstalling, also rolled back my bios to previous verison, noting fixing it. 

Like I have mentioned, the one dimm that is not lit up at start up, will light up after I run Icue??

Nice rig  😊  have you tried the Memory manufacturer maybe he has some trick up in its sleve?.

[pinkfloyd1173]

Thanks man. 

I dont think its Corsair or the Icue software, Like I said all was fine till I updated to this new bios. 

I am not into OC'ing and stuff like that, so pretty much everything is stock on my rig.

I had that happen AMD.. I Forgot the Asus MB but was a 3900x board. Anyway I had to raise or set the Ram voltage to fix it. It kept dropping just low enough during start up so the LED wouldn't work. (hopefully fixes your issue but I wouldn't hold my breath...)

[pinkfloyd1173]

Thanks for the reply man, 

I would like to try this, but how would I go about doing what you haved said? 

Thanks in advance.

Bios > extreme Tweaker > D-ram voltage, it should have what the voltage is visible beside where you manually set it. Check your ram if unsure.

Thank you for this. I tried it. It still does the same thing, oh well, will wait for the full release of the bios see if that fixes it. I did notice something in the bios notes, which I did not pay attention to it. 

"The new BIOS includes Intel microcode 0x129 and adjusts the factory default settings for the non-K processors, enhancing the stability of Intel Core 13th and 14th gen desktop processors"

I have 14900k, I guess maybe this might be causing an issue???
