p2.0 bios broken taichi x370

Hey guys, just going to throw my 2-cents into this thread and say that this is the same with the professional gaming 2.0 bios.  And that the CPU-Z / HWmonitor numbers for vcore don't line up with either HWiNFO64 or OCCT v4.5.0 .

While running a 1700 @stock the voltages run 0.36v min  to 1.28v max values on the high performance plan, as expected of a properly functioning R7. Those are the readings I get with HWinfo and OCCT.

I also wanted to add this tidbit of information from over on the amd forums about Ryzen Master also not being entirely correct and an alternate explanation... or shall we say, alternate facts

Lastly, Parsecs theory on what may be happening is probably correct, and I'm sure we'll eventually see some more software updates, as well as bios updates, which will give us a clearer picture of what is actually going on inside of our new processors.

Thanks.

just as an update
i have had a reply from asrock vendor rep on the support forum here in the uk
quote
'We can assure you that 2.6V is way beyond what the board's overvoltage protection will even allow. Simply a software measurement error, no cause for worry.' unquote

i have asked if this issue with bios 2 and software from cpuz (eg cpuz AND hwmonitor from cpuid) can be looked into ,so as to prevent over reporting volts

Install p1.60 and u don't have problems.
P2.0
Smt disable don't work
Voltage reading don't work correctly
2 settings 4 voltage settings the Mainboard calculate both an say 2,7v not 1,35v.
Pls fix it Asrock.

Pls fix it Asrock. while i agree with you saying please fix it asrock i cant agree to blindly just saying install v1.6 with that you lose agesa 1004 which carries significant postives from my point of view (which may well differ from your for our own reasons) my better option i have decided is to stick with v2 (i dont need to turn off smt,i have no issues with my ram working ) so im MY case im better off with v2 other people may well be suited to version 1.6 or the beta they were using 1.9X

My system running fine at the moment 3,8ghz 1,35v soc voltage 1,0v with ddr4 2933 cl 14 timings 1,36v.
Aots running very fine and smooth
