Asus Z490 stuff

[Falkentyne]

from my testing 0607 not limits io and sa voltage at 1.05 no matter what you set yet the older bios would drive these past 1.6v auto also somthing changd with vcore vault on 0607 im thinking of going back to 0607 as i can set vcore at 1.47 bios yet in windows shows 1.44 cpuz and my multimeter shows 1.48



0606 shows same vcore in bios as cpuz an multimeter was 0.03v higher

this issue now is the volts are a ta lower on the vcore so you have to bump it up another +5 in the bios for stability and when pushing hard that +5 makes you tip over the edge on heat

im havng an ssue with the rng ratio and my ram if i let ram default an just oc i can have high ring ratio no errors but as soon as i oc my ram i start gettng ring error (cache)

not sure what is going on also my vdroop is really bad on level 5 if im set at 1.47 i drop to 1.325 on load

lvl 8 holds vcore perfect and shows stabale voltage on the multimeter but im not sure if its spiking high due to all th miss information around llc

Are you using translation software to write this post? Because some things you wrote I don't understand, or they don't make sense. "Vault"? What does "vault" mean?

"going back to 0607" <--what? Did you mean "going back to 0606"? Please check your posts for accuracy. This stuff is confusing to read.

Also the very first sentence you wrote makes no sense either. "0607 not limits io/sa to 1.05v, yet the older bios sets this at 1.6v?" What do you mean "Not limits"? Sounds like you're saying the same exact thing. Maybe you meant "0607 limits IO/SA to 1.05v on auto, but 0606 sets it as high as 1.6v, if set on auto?"

Also, Level 5 LLC: 1.47v Bios-->1.325v load--this is proper behavior. Seen this on all bioses.

Bios: 606 shows same vcore in BIOS as CPU-Z? This should not happen, unless you are using LLC8. CPU-Z Vcore should always be lower than bios vcore, even on LLC7 it may be about 11-12mv lower (example: 1.470v-->1.459v).

And you should never use LLC8. LLC8 only for testing, and only at 1.25v or lower Bios set voltage.

"0606 shows same vcore in bios as cpuz an multimeter was 0.03v higher " <--what LLC?? Again, same vcore in BIOS and windows idle CPU-Z should never happen, except at LLC8.

Overclocking RAM stresses the IMC. Higher ring ratio when overclocking RAM will require more CPU Vcore, or higher VCCIO/VCCSA. Maybe both. This is normal behavior. Higher ring ratio will give more memory bandwidth (read, write, copy, maybe latency too). It is all related.

Just found out, that "everyone" has the same issue as I do... ._., they just don't know about it, or ignore it. Max. value is 5.1 GHz, now I had it in geekbench too...

[orcinus]

All out of sudden, for no aparent reason, this morning the system woke up terribly slow. POST was terrible, Windows crashed to BSOD mid idle and BIOS is incredibly sluggish. CMOS reset did not help. There was no overclock. UEFI v is 0607,...

Hi,
Can anyone confirm 0403 or 0607 bios cpu core ratio = all core multiplier say 51 ... is totally broken and acts like auto

Idles at 51 but soon after stress hits it darn thing throttles like crazy just using R20
First run throttles down to 4.0 and if you loop R20 it gets worse down to 2.6 lol
This is pretty wild for all core setting

Only option I can use that clocks stay up to 51 or... is By core usage this does not throttle clocks down until the chore is done.
Formula 0607 currently.

in short just enable MCE yourself, welcome to the default club, sites WANT default , you get default.

Hi,
I never asked for default
Also don't know what MCE is care to actually use the words and possibly where it is listed in bios cpu power management.... for an example.

Multi core enhancement ?
I've already tried disabling that it makes no difference these bios do what they want to do and ignore settings.

Really just asked why By core usage works and all core doesn't I guess you'll break this later ?

You are completely, utterly lying. The bios code doesn't work that way.
PL1/PL2 and Tau are honored as long as all core/voltage/etc settings are left at auto as designed (besides XMP which you can change as needed)
And Asus is one of the few OEM's using correct Intel power limits as designed.

As soon as you click "Sync all cores" and enter a ratio, MCE (at auto) will recognize this and will disable the power limits for you, when MCE is at auto.
MCE disabled will enforce all limits unless you manually override each limit.

I've drawn (by accident, mind you) over 255 amps and 320 watts measured from the VRM by doing this--and CPU Package Power was 400 watts. No throttling. Just 110C. (I had CPU overtemperature protection set to 115C). And I didn't touch MCE. Just left it auto.

I'm 99% 100% certain you disabled MCE, probably because of some other board that you used in the past, and didn't max out your power and current limits.
Just leave MCE at auto and set an all core multiplier. It is then impossible for the CPU to throttle to 3.7 ghz unless you are overheating, unless you also changed the power limits from auto as well...

*And on the VERY UNLIKELY CHANCE that you actually ran into a genuine bug, why didn't you record it in a video, along with the original BIOS settings clearly shown, the windows AI Suite settings for the power limits, etc, clearly shown, and the stress test downclocking results clearly shown, so such an issue could be tracked down, if it existed? Of course the instant you start verbally harassing engineers, you lose ALL of your credibility and no one is going to care what you say anymore.

But of course you already RMA'd the board didn't you?

Hi,
Yeah after reviewing a text file from someone this setting seems to make all core work properly
Auto or disabled just breaks all core

Should i stay with default bios and not update then to 607 i have not turn on the pc yet so what is the advice no updat and wait or issue is worse in default bios

Definitely update. This is important especially from stock Bios. Many issues have been fixed.
