Scar 18 Bios 319 Cpu performance degradation

[SciGhost]

Hi All. 

I am creating this topic for visibility & I hope it gets the attention of Asus representatives. 

The latest bios update for the Asus Rog Strix Scar 18 - Bios 319 is causing cpu performance degradation.

Users reporting they're dropping from 32,000 on Cinebench down to 29,000 or lower.

I myself have seen a performance degradation in Cinebench and in 3d Mark TimeSpy CPU score.

Previous Cinebench R23 was 34k current 31k. TimeSpy CPU score has dropped from 19384 to 18564.

Notes I am running in dedicated ultimate GPU mode, some users report that the scores are fine in standard mode. 

Anyone else experiencing this issue?

Yup exactly that it comes down to silicon lottery and lots of testing, every chip has its own unique thresholds and ideal voltages for stability. Also it depends on what your system has running in the background that might be consuming active cpu core time. Keep testing till you find your ideal configuration.

Oh ******! Did you create a boot USB or a recovery disk so you can boot Windows and reinstall it? If you press F2 when booting can you see soemthign on yoru screen the BIOs menu or soewmthing?

Obviously your Bios install is corrupted and now your motherboard can't send signals to the screen which is why it's dark. If you don't have a boot ISB or recovery media( hard drive, ssd , usb stick etc) is your laptop still under warranty?
