AM4 BIOS info

Hey guys, I have noticed a lot of you have been sharing your experiences with
BIOS updates and changes, improvements and bugs you have found. For that reason
I have decided to make a sticky thread that we can use to keep all this useful
info in one place.

Rules:

1. Only share info about BIOS versions you have tested.
2. Do not post questions asking for info on when new BIOS versions will be
released etc, keep it on topic.
3. Do not ask what BIOS version is best for your particular board/combo, make
your own thread for that or read the thread for the info you need.
4. Keep the thread clean and on point so it remains informative.

If this thread proves useful and stays on topic it could become an invaluable
resource for ASRock's tech support department.

Thank you all for sharing and keeping this community thriving

Board model: X470 Taichi
BIOS version: P3.90
CPU: R5 3600
RAM: Ballistix Sport LT CL-15 32GB (2x 16GB) 288-Pin dual rank BLS2K16G4D30AESC

Notes: Computer will not boot when I Push the power button. Lights, fans come on, then fans stop, lights stay on, no boot. I need to turn off then on the power supply switch, and eventually 2-6 tries the computer boots. Once, I had to reset bios. I built this yesterday.

This board came back from an RMA.

The non-boot sequence: When I push power button, lights come on, some fans turn then stop turning. Oddly, the rear exhaust fan is the only one that keeps spinning. Sometimes no fans, always the colored mb lights and power light come on.

In my experience, this seriously points to motherboard failure, especially with that one fan spinning and the rest stopping. I will replace the ram and try this again (this is known good working ram). Someone mentioned this same problem and suggested to boost the ram voltage. So, maybe this is a ram compatibility problem.

Board model: X470 Taichi

TeamGroup Dark Pro "8Pack Edition" 4x8 32GB PC4-25600C14 3200
Running at 3600 C16 Volt 1.36

NO PROBLEM

Board model: x570 Phantom Gaming 4
BIOS version: 3.10
CPU: 3600
RAM: G.Skill TridentZ Neo DDR4-3600 C16 DC (AMD) - 16GB (2x8)

Notes:
Updated BIOS in an attempt to solve cpu not boosting to advertised speeds. Still does not boost to 4,2 - but now previously working XMP 3600 profile results in machine not booting a few times until it reverts to lower speeds.

3600 memory still -kind of-works when set from Ryzen Master, but can no longer hit timings from before.

Board model: X570 Extreme4
BIOS version: 2.80
CPU: Ryzen 7 3800X
RAM:G Skill RipjawsV F4-3600C16-8GVKC

Notes: 2.80 had problems with missing pages in BIOS, Boot loops, incorrect overclocking. Reverted to 2.60.
