on some older BIOS revisions of the x570 Steel Legend, I couldn't do XMP but had to manually set RAM speed and voltage and then it worked fine ..

BTW ThreeDee

How did you add your RIG in your firm? I can't find where can I modify my Profile, neither I can find a button to edit my posts, that's why I have to make a new one to ask you about this extra stuff. Thanxs in advance!

I think it might be RAM related, I still didn't try it without XMP.

Yet it would be sthg to be solved if it's the case since with the older BIOS up to the 1.10 version, I have no problem at all enabling XMP with my PC functioning without hassle.

Board model: B550 PG itx/ax
BIOS version: P 2.10
CPU: 3900x
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX CMK32GX4M2D3600C18 32Gb

Notes: Any BIOS above 1.10 (that I know are more focused on the 5000 series) gives me primarly problems when I start my PC from a Cold Boot or when re starting it. It will crash when trying to initiate windows, if I enter in SAFE MODE I can restart and everything seems fine. No issues while using it.
I will try what happens if I disable XMP on my RAM with the newer BIOS like the latest I have now installed.
It's annoying because I really want to use some of the newer features that new BIOS brings to the table like SAM for instance and I can only manage stability while starting my PC with 1.10 Bios or prior ones.

After prolonged testing, I have to say that it's still not right. The sound crackles in the games. When watching youtube, the sound is fine. During gaming, the computer sometimes restarts. VDDCR_SOC Voltage is always set to fixed. So we have another scum in line.

ThreeDee referred to the on-chip controller, which limits the clock. I have now come to terms with this. I ran my memory through several test series with different BIOS versions and reached the 4000Mhz mark. For stability reasons, I chosed 3833Mhz with the current BIOS 3.4.
If Asrock is anything to go by, it delivers a masterpiece BIOS for the X570aqua. But I don't expect that much enthusiasm.

Board model: X570 Taichi Razer Edition
BIOS version: BETA 1.42
CPU: Ryzen 5950x
RAM: 32Gb (4x8Gb)G.Skillz Trident Z Neo 3600mhz CL14 (Samsung)

Notes: The above post is right regarding the 4 DIMMS and OCing. I can't get the 4 of these above 3800 when fully installed. Running 2x8 at a time though gives me significantly more overclocking room, but I have yet to find a combination that gives more consistent performance than its XMP of 3600 @ CL14 with slightly tightened subtimings. I just want it stable so I can play with my 16 cores lol ;)

This board and I had a rocky start to our relationship for the first few days. She would not, under any circumstance, acknowledge the existence my NVME drives regardless of slot placement or correct BIOS settings (end result: I bought a new 970 Evo Plus, turned off CSM completely, booted in under Win10 USB drive and installed Windows, which then correctly identified all my drives without me having to wipe my system; even after swapping CSM settings back to their factory setting. I spent extra $, so its a good thing this board has a 3rd M.2 slot and my GPU covers up the PCIE slot that gets shut off by the use of M.2_3)

Aside from that, it's really been great in terms of its power delivery and thermal mitigation. I shelled out $400 for this mostly for its VRM capabilities, tolerating the RGB aspect only inasmuch as it doesn't threaten my temperatures.

That said, ASRock: I really appreciate the BETA release with the AGESA update. I am doing really perverse and unspeakable things to this processor's curves via the UEFI alone as well as with the currently in-development Clocktuner utility by 1usmus. Most of the other board manufacturers have recently released a full update for their boards...any idea when we can expect one for the Taichi Razer£ I'm reluctant to do anything too extreme with a BETA release; as per your company's multiple warnings, but I wanna go play with the other kids. =(
