Crosshair VI Hero: UEFI build update thread

[jbasemoine]

Been struggeling around with ram for quite some time now. 55 weeks and 4 days to be exact :P
With 6001 i managed to set ram to 3600 (max speed) with 1.42 Volt and manged to get a cold boot (yaaaay) but system was pretie unstable.... (booooh!!!!)
So i switched back to 3466 1.4volt and had some preformance isseus but nothin major!
Lately some stuiff started to work real bad, like internet browsing (loading web page could take 10 minutes) and other "normal tasks" like watching movies took a while to load or would not play right...
After some discussion with some friends (also are ryzen owners) i dongraded my ram to 3200 mhz 1.35volt and lower timings since then the system have never felt more stable then this ever before!
System boots up 3 seconds faster (12 seconds cold boot instead of 15) get 4 fps more in games on avarage, and i get 400 point more with 3d mark benchmark, copieing files now copie with the correct speed etc.. etc.. etc...
So i'm more then happy that my ryzen FINALY feels like worty upgrade! but i'm sad i spent to much money on my 3600mhz ram :P

Hi Fox,
I find that my 12V, 3.3V & 5V are usually just a little over, rather than under. Have you checked voltages from HWINFO? It should be more accurate.

I switched the PSU. With the new bequiet P11 850, the voltages are a bit more stabel, but still under the line.
Now I get 11,904 Volts 3,292V and 4,960V


@jbasemoine

With 6001 I have cold boot issues every single restart.
Random BSOD also. Not that often like with my old PSU but its still a shaky system =/
For the Ram, I can set voltage to 1,4v but the system only put it up to 1,37.
The whole electricity-thingy is strange on my board.

Any word on a new bios, or will they wait for the new cpus?

Is there a list of changes and known issues to go along with it?

I've posted them on previous page...

Thanks! I am a bit behind on this thread. It is good to see they are still working away on improving this board.

Haven't tested the latest bios yet, but i dont think it includes the recently released amd microcode that addresses spectre.

Anyways, I just need to say that the naming convention for bios's for this company is stupid. Seriously, the beta bios is 0001? Why?

> numbers should reflect newer bios's. It's intuitive, logical, and easy to implement. Stop huffing markers Asus and implement some sane versioning.

Change log is huge and I'm not sure what's different compared to 0001. It has at least the same upgrades as 0001, probably the same down sides as well.

I'm guessing the 0001 was pre-beta where the 6002 is basically the beta version of 0001?
