The problem is not the GPU temperature, it's the lack of airflow in that spedcific area with the pastic cover suffocating the PCH. Stupid design...

So, regarding the PCH temperature, try to set...

I don't wanna sound weird, but something is really wrong with the Z590 Asus motherboards and Rocket Lake.
Don't get me wrong, i love Asus products and their quality. But i didn't have coil whine in...

Uhm, i don't see any new Bios. Did refresh a couple of times, cleared cache as well.
Latest Bios for me is the 0704 (Beta).

** UPDATE: Never mind, it just showed up. Very poor release logs /...

Does your GPU have a 0-rpm mode ? If so, disable it and set its fan to 30-35% (should still be silent) in order to create some airflow around the PCH.

Both M.2_1 and M.2_2 are CPU bound. So, if your CPU has only 16 lanes and want your PCIE16_1 to run at x16, you shouldn't use M.2_1 or M.2_2.
RKL on the other hand has 20 lanes, which lets you use...

Yes, that is the expected behaviour, it's what's called "VDroop".
The voltage drops while transitioning from "idle" to "under load". The lower your LLC (Load Line Calibration) setting is, the more...

That is correct. Pluging your sound card into PCIe16_3 will occupy chipset lanes not CPU lanes.
For a 10th gen CPU, you only want a singe GPU at PCIE16_1 in order to run it at x16.

So, for *10th...

Z590 chipset lanes run at PCIe 3.0, only CPU lanes are PCIe 4.0.
PCIe 4.0 chipset lanes would probably require a fan.

SP and the prediction clock / voltage is a good indication. You can also check the V/F Points Curve. Lowest voltage wins :)

Still there. No change for me unfortunately.
Even at stock bios settings without OC it's the same noise, and same problems with windows power modes.
Only Sync-All-Core OC with auto or static...

Thank you as always Shamino, much appreciated !

** UPDATE **

I think i can confirm there is a bug in Z590 Hero Bios, with power saving when OCing using "By Core Usage".
After extensive testing i found that:


"Sync All Core" 50x + Auto...

Hey there,

Undervolting without underclocking will lead to instabilities.
You may be able to do it a little bit, it's generally recommended though to underclock too.

In general for...

Thank you for clarifying it Silent Scone. It makes sense.
So, let me see if i got this right. If for example i set an OC "By Core Usage" with Auto Voltage + V/F (and C-States Enabled) as follows:
...

This is clearly a VRM problem related to VCore changes.
I've tested it multiple times. Vcore fluctuations = Coil Whine.

Instead of disabling *all* C-States (which works), i tried a different...

I'm afraid Lighting Service is not the cause of the problem for me either. I don't even have that service running.
It has to do with low VCore in relation to VID.

Hmm, very interesting, i'll give it a try.

However i've already fixed my coil whine by disabling the C-States of the CPU.
You see, i noticed that my problem was actually the *low* VCore voltage...

Your board is a Z590 Maximus, so this is the right thread.
Please write in English though...

Does anyone have any idea why i can't read any DRAM info ? I'm getting this error, shown below, about the SMBus Controller.
I've already updated all drivers, firmware and Bios, but still no luck. No...

What a fantastic post ! Very detailed and in-depth.
Thank you Falkentyne, much appreciated !

Asus has officially released the new bios (0605) for the Maximus XIII Hero board. For some reason it's not displayed under the "Bios & Firmware" section, however you can find it under the "Drivers &...

There is no Samsung NVMe driver for the 980 Pro. At least Samsung hasn't released any, as it runs fine with the Standard NVMe one.
I personally use the standard one, with no problems whatsoever.

alright i'll give it a try, thanks ! :)

Is this another Beta Bios (0610) for Maximus XIII Hero ?

I wouldn't recommend flashing anything that is not officially confirmed by ASUS. I mean i don't know, could be just fine. It's just... Last...

I bought the board mainly for it's overclocking capabilities, VRMs, Voltage Control etc, as well as its cooling solutions.
But definitelly agree with you. Well, perhaps this board has higher pch...
