Asus Strix X470-F Gaming owners thread

Updated to lastest BIOS using 3700X works fine. Alot more options in BIOS. Micro Center has a ton of 5800X but nothing else. Plan on getting 5900X when I can find one.

Do you think that CPU will work with air cooling on this board?

Just a quick hint to find out which device last woke your system up. Use powercfg /lastwake in the command-line just after your system has waken up and before any shutdown/restart occur.

Thanks, it seems like it's some kind of wake timer issue, even though I have wake timers disabled

Can you send me your html report of you ram from thaippon burner? only for comparison
What SOC voltage and DRAM Voltage are you using?


Show the timings of the memories with Zentiming as well if you are not bothered?

here it is...SOC Voltage: 1.1 / DRAM Voltage: 1.4v

It's only an opinion of the news articles' authors that it's a beta version, it doesn't say anything about "beta" on the official websites:
https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/Fatal1...ing%20K4/#BIOS
https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard...upport-dl-bios
https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/supp...0M-PRO-VDH-MAX
So it's not a beta for AsRock, Gigabyte and MSI, but it is for ASUS.

Look here:

The F60c is a Beta BIOs as stated on their Official Forum.

Look Here for MSI:

AMD 400 AMD ComboAM4v2PI 1.1.0.0 first hand BIOS will be uploaded to MSI product website as soon as it is ready!!

- B450M PRO-VDH MAX E7A38AMS.BA0
- B450I GAMING PLUS MAX WIFI E7A40AMS.B30
- B450M-A PRO MAX E7C52AMS.390

And I'm 99% sure that the current Asrock BIOS are Beta versions is well, they just didn't list them as Beta on their sites.
And I definitely trust the writer at Anandtech's info, that he says he got from Asrock, than your opinion.

Today, ASRock Is claiming that it has first revision beta BIOS firmware for its B450 series ready to go. These firmware packages should enable support for Ryzen 5000 processors on the respective B450 motherboards. Users should note that upgrading most of these motherboards requires a currently supported processor, unless the motherboard supports any sort of non-powered BIOS update function. These firmware packages are also expected to keep support for Ryzen 3000 processors as well, but not Ryzen 2000 or Ryzen 1000.

So hate on Asus if you want, BUT all these MB manufacturers released Beta BIOS version as well.

I have latest BIOS and my SMU is same as your... no worries.

That's awesome! I've actually been considering using this "beta" BIOS with my 2700X, but truthfully, my 2700X already hits 4.3GHz on a few cores via PBO already. And I have my RAM timings manually set to CL14 @ 1.35V (32GB - 4x8).

I am curious of the extra BIOS settings though.

Enabled PBO. Now cores peak 4.4-4.425 in game but still stable at 4.375ghz.

I just picked up some B-die DDR4 4400 CL19 (32GB-4x8) going to see if I can get 3800mhz with super tight timmings. Grab a 5900X when I can find one.

wow nice bro thanks, i think SMU is a CPU thing so..

For those not updating their CPU to 5000 series this BIOS fixes issues with getting boost clocks on 3000 series cpus. My 3700X which is a crappy first run edition is now hitting:
Core0-4.425ghz
Core1-4.400ghz
Core2-4.400ghz
Core3-4.425ghz
Core4-4.375ghz
Core5-4.425ghz
Core6-4.375ghz
Core7-4.400ghz
All cores stay at 4.375ghz or higher when gaming.
I havent messed with PBO setting or OCing as of yet.
Memory also seem more stable. Running DuelRank 3200 32GB(16*2) @3800mhz(1900IF) 16-16-14-28-42-1T @ 1.45v

Sorry, but i can't trust you. Do you have any proof of your claims? Screnshots?

Anyway, Asus says about this beta bios: " It's highly recommended not to update this beta BIOS when using AMD AM4 Socket for AMD Ryzen 3000 Series/ 2000 Series/ 1000 Series/ A-Series Desktop Processors."

This makes me feel better for not having installed this latest Beta BIOS with my 2700X. Sounds like I'd ****ing make my CPU incompatible, which is a shame.

Honestly, **** these MB manufacturers for not listing the exact CPU compatibility with these new updates.
