Hello ROG forum,
I recently upgrade from AORUS Gaming 7 to Maximus X Hero and I'm facing some issues regarding the BIOS as this is my first time using a ROG Enthusiasts board and some features are unknown to me. All I care about is to run my CPU to Intel's stock turbo boost mode. The maximum frequency I've seen so far is 4.4 at idle and 4.3 during stress test.
Well to begin with, how I setup my BIOS ver. 1602 (shipped with mobo).
XMP -> ON
Enhanced Performance -> NO
ASUS CME -> DISABLED
SVID -> Best Case Scenario and Auto instead of enabled
CPU CORE RATIO -> AUTO (By XMP)
Maximus Tweak -> Mode 1 (By XMP)
I try to run a stress test with AIDA64, Prime95 and OCCT and after a few seconds the CPU frequency goes from 4.3 all core, to 3.7 and it can even underclock to 3.5-3.6!
I tried to tweak the BIOS by changing more values as shown below:
Long Duration Package Power Limit = set 4095
Short Duration Package Power Limit = set 4095
CPU Core /Cache Current Limit = set 255.50
But, then after almost 11 minute under OCCT stress test, the thermal maximum was reached the stress test canceled itself but at least it ran at 4.3GHz.
I then tried to do a Load Optimized Settings, run a stress test with EVERYTHING on default (including XMP) and the stress results can been below:
So what's going on? Is there anything wrong with my CPU? So far I haven't seen that 4.7GHz not even on a single core. (All if I use Sync all core on CPU ratio). And during the stress test the CPU underclocks? I also tried to swap Maximus Tweak from Mode 1 to AUTO and still, i get downgrades after a few secondsI can't recall any issues during stress test with my AORUS Gamin 7.
Note: During gaming temps are between 45-54 average.
Hopefully someone can help me out!
Kind regards and thanks in advance.
