Please note that in order to have this BIOS update fix the sensor issues, you need to only use software which relies on our new interface. I'll try to compile a list of what's safe at a later time.

I'm looking into the issues with graphics cards only running at x8, got nothing concrete yet.

Even Asrock Taichi up to Agesa 1.0.0.4

[creatie]

Even MSI, Asrock every mobo 1.0.0.4c

[ilovebytes]

for years i stayed with asrock when it was up to a new mobo and now going from intel cpus back to Amd i gave Asus a chance. But the support is really quite dissapointing.

Speaking of one of the Top Notch Boards for Am4, also price wise, its really annoying to see that all the other brands and cheaper boards get the new agesa updates amd puts out much faster than the crosshair 7.

I own a CH7 and I'm dissapointed too about the lack of BIOS updates.... Seems that we are all abandoned here.

[Baio73]

Well, I would not talk about "abandonment"... starting from april 2018, there have been BIOS updates every month, only august hadn't.
I'm more worried about the lack of updates in Aura software... this is a main feature many users still can't use... and the last functional release is a long ago...

check out the Crosshair VI Hero: UEFI Build Update Thread, We were abandoned a long time ago minus the insignificant bios updates that didn't actually help.

[wonderiuy]

Elmor said they are waiting for AGESA 1.0.0.6 to be release on late september/begin october for new bios to be released
https://www.overclock.net/forum/11-a...l#post27608310
So we are not still abandoned

[Conenubi701]

Updated the OP.

So, it looks like AGESA 1.0.0.4 had a lot of bugs that had to be sorted out and that's why we haven't received it yet. Elmor said they're going straight to AGESA 1.0.0.6 like @wonderiuy said above. Target release is hopefully sometime late October.


Edit: Also, I hope ASUS puts 1001 in their support page so we don't have to use the mediafire links

1001 is causing several no POSTS for me. The QLED codes are different each time but gets stuck when rebooting the system after coming out of sleep. The following reboot always boots with no issue.
