Asus Z490 stuff

[morello1n]

I am able to DL 0707 for Z490I here: https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/m...-ASUS-0707.zip

I'll give it a shot and see if it improves memory stability...

sigh it hasnt for me:


HMM latencymon stats are much better, was saying it was unsuitable for realtime due to acpi.sys i think it was

fwiw I have never gotten any memtest errors, even with previous bios that would crash often. So far so good for me.

Yea my kit is 4x8gb-4000mhz-cl17 that might be why, might need some tweaking to get working in 4x8 configuration

Yeah, fwiw 7070 didn't allow me to run my F4-4000C15Q-32GTZR at the XMP (4000 MHz, CL15).
On the previous page, [ I posted full bios settings ] for how it works at 3600 MHz CL14; I settled there for now.

yea 3800-c16 seems to work fine for me, here's hoping a UEFI updates comes that improves DRAM stability

Did anybody find better overclocking results with 0707?

On the old 0607 it took 1.38 (BIOS) LLC7 to get stable at 5.2 but with 0707, I'm able to do it with 1.32 (BIOS) LLC7. Ram I haven't been able to get any higher frequencies though.

Did you look at the LOAD voltage between each bios version and confirm that the load voltage is the same?
Because a 60mv vcore decrease between two bios versions, on the *CPU* is completely impossible.

I unfortunately did not. I'm not sure what caused the change but I threw the same stress tests at it and they all went well without any WHEA errors.

Only physical change I did notice that were my temps are much better now than before. I guess I'll chalk it up to me doing something wrong the first time around?

Hi, it seems that the CPU Current-sensor is a little busted on the M12A? Pulling above 254A will cause the sensor to stop reporting which also prevents CPU Power from reporting accurately. I found a voltage that first landed me just below 254A using P95 Small AVX2 which worked fine (you can see 253A and 314W load in the screenshot below). I then increased that voltage slighty (~10mv) which caused what you can see as well, a 32A 40W load @ above 90c. Sounds about right?

I know for a fact that this was not an issue on the Z390 Apex (seen above 260A) and afaik this board uses the same controller just with a rebranded name. Something to look into fixing?
