Crosshair VI Hero: UEFI build update thread

**skline00** · 12-14-2018 01:14 PM

The Precision Boost Overdrive option seems to have been eliminated in the new 6401 BIOS.

Any good news about Ram Clocks with 6401?? =)

**SaLSouL** · 12-14-2018 06:06 PM

Some people are having great success

Thanks for your reply and link.
Maybe I give it a try

-------------------------------------
Tried the 6401

CPU still works fine @ 4,0Ghz on 1,365v
But my Ram (Dominator Platinum 3466) still wont run above 3200mHz
It boots with 3333 into Windows but its not stable. (safe + fast settings)
Maybe its, why they are dual ranked. But Samsung B-Die

Well, 3200 is ok and fast enough.
Oh, I use Ryzen Dram Calculator 1.4.0 to generate the settings.

Merry Christmas to all and a great time to all not who don't celeb. it ;-)

Hello. I have Kraken x62 and hue+ for some reason none of them it's been detected by the motherboard. Both of them are connected to the internal NZXT USB hub. I connect it to the USB of my windows tablet and the hue was recognized but the kraken not. Did anyone face similar issues? Did I mess up with the drivers?

Changelog:
Update AGESA version to 1.0.0.6
Improve system performance

You got me all excited for a moment there, then I realised it is for the Hero. C6E still needs love.

Went back to 6302 since it allows Precision Boost Overclock. 6401 does not have an option to enable Precision Boost Overclock. It does appear to allow more memory overclocking.

A new bios is excellent, here are the results of 1800x 4 GHz, the memory is 3200 4х8 gb с16, run 3466

On the C7H the menu was renamed, XFR Enhancement.

Advanced > AMD CBS > NBIO Common Options > XFR Enhancement

It only allows [Auto/Disabled/Enabled]. This is down to AMD AGESA changes and not motherboard vendors, link.
