Crosshair VI Hero: UEFI build update thread

[Tavsalli]

Install the latest version of the ASUS page, When I run the rams at high speed (2933mhz & 3000 mhz), I get a 0d error code. The 0d error has been reduced, but it continues to come out. How can I get rid of 0d error? There is no error at 2800 MHz.


Note:I get a 0d error when starting the computer. I have no problems in the Windows environment.

I'm running the same ram that you are Ryzen just doesn't like it any higher then 2666mhz you can run it at 2800mhz but memtest64 will give you errors best to keep it at 2666mhz

I stick with Bios 3008.
Its the only Bios, thats working mostly without errors for me on my overclocked rig
Cold boot only, if I unplug my computer. Rest of the time its fine.

I hope, 3502 will be a good choice for other CH6 owners, but not for me.

Personally, 1602 was the best BIOS I have tried. It required a bit of tweaking with the VDDP, which required more than I am using on 3502, but I was able to reach 3560MHz for my RAM, where no matter what I try within reason, I can't get my RAM stable above 3500MHz on 3502.

Also sticking with 3008. 3501 and 3502 did not allow even 3466 to be stable no matter the voltage or timings according to HCI memtest. At lest with 3008 have been able to run BLCK: 100.6 with a 39.25 multi while using the 3466 bootstrap so ram is effectively 3487 at CAS15 and 1.39v @ 15-15-15-15-35-50-1T. For my setup, the bios versions peeked at 3008 so far. Latency for my ram according to Aida64 comes in at 64.8ns. So no complaints from me.

Moved from 9920 to 1501. Used exactly the same settings. Booted np.
vddp 0.855, dram 1.35 (auto), CPU offset +0.0375, Soc offset 0.0500

Temps very jumpy at OS start.
On 1403 I sat at 47c with 3466 mem clock(and a crap set up).
on 9920 I sat at 50c jumping to 58c with 3600 mem clock
on 1501 I sit at 52c jumping to 63c for first 3-4 mins then settles.

This one seems more stable. 9920 felt glitchie in parts with hindsight. Like it just froze occasionally, not much but it was there on certain boot ups. I am only on my 4th boot up here so maybe I am wrong on this one.

Through put is a lot higher as well as very low latencies. This showed out in game benching +1 average fps, and +2-3 maximum fps on 4k using a single 1080. I use formula one 2016. it has a nice benching run built in.

no failed boots as yet, but it is early. I wont memtest, because if it failed I would probably be looking at a divorce along with a hunt for a new job.

I attached aida64 results
1501 with 3600 on a speed system top
1501 with 3600 on my normal system middle
9920 with 3600 on my normal system bottom

EDIT
F n H this bios revision is good. I set my system for a speed result in aida64, all redundant process stopped except bit defender. All my previous results have been on my normal running system. I should add I changed a couple of settings in the bios, one of which was twr to 10. Seems stable I will run a memtest after all.

awesome work man !!.....looks great .......

Hello guys, I have C6H WIFI and i upgraded to 3502 UEFI.

I never had any issues with any version of UEFI from 1501 to 3008 (only, cpu speed reading was wrong) and with overclocking CPU/RAM. I just upgraded to the lastest 3502 UEFI and strange thing happened. I was overclocking CPU and I was testing OCCT Linpack stress test, in three days of testing and like 10 tests of 20 mins and two of 2h. Everything was fine, at idle fans were spinning at 5%, at full load at 90%, after stress test at idle 5%, temperatures were fine. But after two of them case fans didn't stop spinning at idle. They were at 90% even if CPU temp was 25C and CPU fans (Kraken x62) were very low, only case fans were spinning at full. I want to add that after test at idle CPU was between 5-10%, and temps were 30-40 not sure what happened there, no background app was on. But normally CPU after and before every test was at idle at 0-2% with temps 25C, only after that one test with BIOS 3502 keep CPU at 8-10% at idle.

Question is, is it because of latest BIOS version 3502, should I go back to previous?

Ugh! This plague of a motherboard strikes again! After being stable with my RAM at 3500MHz since last Saturday. The system blue screened today and absolutely refused to boot at anything above 3200MHz for the RAM, regardless of the voltage and timings. Damn, I hate this POS!

I do not think the issues are 100% with this board. The major problem is still with AMD and the AGESA code. Even though Coreboost is disabled in the bios, have seen HWiNFO, most current version, state the cpu boosted to over 4.0GHz. The manual oc is set to 3.95. The BCLK has even been shown to go as high as 102.6 even though it is statically set to 100.6.

Sometimes the system has held together during these boosts. Sometimes the game freezes and then crashes to desktop (nothing showing in event viewer). Other times event viewer will state that a memory issue caused the error. Until AMD nails the code, abnormalities will pop up. Unfortunately even after a year we are still early adopters.

Same thing for me, 3502 turned out to be very unstable. Reverted to 3008, which is stable for me as well.
