Will resizable bar (smart access memory alternative) be enabled on X299

[PipJones]

Joining in to register my interest.

I'm using an "ASUS TUF X299 MARK 1" with 10900X and Strix 3080 OC.

Does anyone know if the recent 3301 BIOS (released 2021-01-13) for my motherboard includes the change for enabling "resizable BAR support"?

Does anyone know a/the schedule for releasing updated VBIOS for Asus video cards?

Has anyone with X299 and compatible card got this up and running? Any measurable differences?

Hi, yes, thanks - i read that. They're a little generic and I was asking for specifics.

For my specific BIOS (the 3301) the release notes are vague - all I can see is "improve system stability" and "Improve system performance". I'd like to know if the "Resizable BAR" feature has been implemented. If not, I will raise a support ticket. I have had great experience with Asus support addressing such things on my rve (*Note, i'm not suggesting they implement on the rve, just using it as an example).

For VBIOS, "Late March" is too vague for me, an actual date would be cool.

"Late March, NVIDIA will release downloadable VBIOS updates for all Founders Edition GeForce RTX 30 Series GPUs to enable Resizable BAR, and likewise, partners will release VBIOS updates for their custom models, too."

I see new nVidia drivers are out, v461.92.

@Asus: Any news on motherboard and graphics card bios updates?

It might be too much to ask for ALL Asus x299 have the Re Bar enabled but also adding this feature to the 10 nvidia series like the 1080ti? Not all us can buy a new GPU due to covid 19 issues.

Not listed on the BIOS & FIRMWARE page for the Rampage VI Extreme Encore. Still stuck on 0901 from January.

Or are we supposed to use 0700 provided in this forun? Why isn't it on the official downloads like all the other boards?

How about Rampage VI Extreme Encore?

[Eliott]

Rampage VI Extreme Encore isn't updated yet, but as @etacarinae said, 0070 bios from shamino as resizebar activated ... I'm confident that Asus will bring an official one soon.
Just now we have to wait for 3070/3080/3090 Vbios ...
