Board model: ASRock B450 Pro4
BIOS version: 4.50, 4.20; 4.10 or earlier
CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 3200G or AMD Ryzen 3 3350 Pro
RAM: Transcend JM3200HLE-16G 16 GB DDR4/3200 CL22 or ADATA 16GB DDR4/2666 AD4U2666716G19-SGN

Dear Sirs,

I have a very odd problem: with a 4 port PCI-E LAN card - Dell Intel I350-T4 QP Adapter the system takes an eternity to boot - more than 3 minutes for the initial BIOS startup. After boot everything works fine.
I flashed an older BIOS and found that with version 4.10 or older (3.90, 3.60) the problem does not appear.
Older BIOSes boot within a reasonable time and work perfectly.

Since newer BIOSes come with newer microcode I think I should use always the latest one.

Board: Creator x570
Cpu: 5900x
Bios: 3.30
Ram: Hyper X 3200mhz 2x32GB
GPU: Asus TUF 3090 OC
PSU: Corsair HX850i

Bios is stock except Ram manually set to 3200mhz and 1.350 Volts. Worked well for a few hours, but since then still random reboots under load and idle.
XMP on is not working overall.

Guys I have the following config (also opened a topic for it, sorry):

Ryzen 5 1400(yeah the one that no one bought)
ASRock B450 Pro4

So, i'm using bios version P3.40 (as 3.50 was really broken,OC didn't even work with summit, so I managed to rollback to the P3.40) and I got an opportinity to get a 1600AF for only 58 bucks new. The problem is that the CPU support list says that this CPU is only supported with 3.90 BIOS and the P3.90 BIOS description says it's NOT RECOMENDED for summit, pinnacle or raven CPUS, afaik the 1600AF is a pinnacle CPU without its boosting features.

So, should I try using the 1600AF with the P3.40 BIOS or should I update it straight to the 3.90? Why this BIOS isn't recommended for pinnacle anyways?

Board model: X570 Extreme 4
BIOS version: 2.80 (Combo-AM4 V2 1.0.0.2)
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
RAM: 2x16GB (BLS16G4D32AESB.M16FE)

Works Great.

Board model: X570 Extreme 4
BIOS version: 3.50 (Combo-AM4 V2 1.1.0.0 patch D.) & 3.31 (ComboAM4v2 1.1.0.0 Patch C)
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
RAM: 2x16GB (BLS16G4D32AESB.M16FE)

UEFI update from 2.80 to 3.50 resulted in system continual random power downs within minutes of each other. Troubleshooting: I cut power to the mainboard and placed a jumper on the clear cmos jumper then loaded bios defaults. Set my XMP profile to what it was on 2.80 (which ran fine for many months without issue) however system continued to randomly power off / restart. Next, I downgraded to 3.31, performed all the same steps, however system was still not stable and same results. I reverted back to 2.80, set all settings consistent with 3.50 and 3.31 and no longer experience issues with random power downs and reboots. I would like to upgrade this board to utilize Ryzen 5000 processors while I have a 3600 installed (as believe this is the only way you can do it). Why are the UEFI updates causing such instability with my board when the settings / hardware are not changing between UEFI updates?

I just yesterday bought an X570M Pro4 with a 5600x and I used the instant flash to update it to the latest (3.3) since it had come with a 2.x version prior to Ryzen 5000 series. The update worked perfectly and it's running nicely.

Notes: tons of WHEA errors logged.
System randomly reboots under light load or high load.
Both memory kits runs fine with zero WHEA errors on a Gigabyte x570 AORUS Elite MB with every AGESA 1.1.0.0 based BIOSes (beta and non beta)


Board model: B550 Phantom Gaming-ITX/ax
BIOS version: 1.20 (AGESA 1.0.8.0 based)
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600x
RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16GB (2x8GB) @ XMP 3600 C18 or Crucial Ballistix BL2K8G36C16U4WL RGB @ XMP 3600 CL16

Notes: Sytem is perfectly stable. BIOS seems to automatically apply an overvolt to SOC @ 1,2 volts when XMP is enabled. I can manually set VSOC to 1.1 volts with no loss of stability.

i see a huge regression here.


just to report that version 1.80 (AGESA 1.1.0.0 patch C) has been rock solid for me so far. it even allows to run SOC manually @ 1,1 volts with XMP @ 3600 enabled just like version 1.20 did.

happy about it so far.

CPU: 3950x
RAM: 4 x 8GB G,Skill Trident Z Royal F4-3600C14Q-32GTRSB
BIOS: Beta 3.30

Follow up from previous post. Ran into game crashes in COD MWF which was not an issue on the previous beta 1.71 settings. Apparently I had to up the CLDO VDDG CCD/IOD voltage by entering 1.0v from 0.950v to eliminate the in game crashes. If CCD and IOD is on auto it works perfectly fine also just at the cost of more voltage running at 1.1v with a negative offset.

Was able to transfer over same custom timing config from Beta 1.71 without compromise 14-15-12-26-38-1T @3800 / 1900 FLCK / 1.47v (with customer sub timings also)

No longer have to force FLCK 1800 @ 3600 for Ram native spec.

P-STATE has drastically been improved, and no need to enter a manual core voltage offset to compensate when OCing. Auto vcore offset has improved.

PBO Enabled performance on 3950x Auto settings has improved with better voltage regulation.

When entering BIOS CPU voltage (when in auto) is reduced resulting in lower CPU temps

Issue: None through preliminary testing so far


Had some random reboots when under full load. Went back to XMP 3200 RAM timings with PBO on and seemed stable.

I replaced the 3700x with a 3800XT and 3600 on RAM, Infinity Fabric 1800 was a complete no-go .. reverted back to the 3.40 BIOS and 3600 RAM,IF 1800 booted and has been stable so far encoding videos and playing Hunt:Showdown.
