GENOAD8X-2T issues

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,

My new homelab setup is:

Asrock GENOAD8X-2T/BCM (Bios 1.13)
AMD EPYC 9124
4x 32GB Micron MTC20F2085S1RC48BA1
2x KINGSTON SNV3S2000G M2 NVME

I have 2 active problems with this board:

1. BIOS never sees Kingston NVME in slot M2_1. All is enabled, PCIe mode selected - nothing. Switched with other identical NVME - still nothing. M2_2 slot is fine for both NVMEs. Tried to force Gen4 PCIe, still nothing.

2. I installed 3x Noctua NF-A14 PWM fans to slots FAN_3 to FAN_5. These are 4 pin fans. They constantly get fan failure events (speed reading issues according to BMC). Changed thresholds to 0, NA - nothing. At least I found out how to turn off max fan when failure, otherwise they were constantly changing speed to low -> high -> low ... CPU fan is in slot 1, also 4 pin fan, no issues.

Been reading the manual end to end, myself, chatgpt... but still nothing.

	I found it very weird jumping from 1.13 to 10.05 beta. Release management seems to be very poor, change description is very laconic. Where are proper release notes with list of changes? 10.05 beta fixed both issues. These are major issues and no notes! ... not even talking back porting fixes to public releases.

	Too early, seems BIOS is still buggy. NVMe from M2_1 seems to show up only after proper power cycle. After a restart and it's gone again. Is there a support who can help with that?
