X299 Specific Per Core Overclock

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

   I've gotten Specific Core Overclock working with the x299 Taichi XE with an i9-7940.  It didn't work initially.  It was capped by the overclock ratios defined based upon number of cores overclocking.  First I'd go into that mode, and max out the overclock (I choose 48x), and then I select Specific Per Core which hides the prior settings, but I apply the actual settings I want on individual Cores.  Anywhere from 38x to 44x in my case.  It does appear that I'm still capped at 43x for some reason, but changing the other overclock settings first allows me to get specific cores up to 43x at least.
I've had this working with the 1.0 and 1.1 versions.  It appears this is broken in the latest 1.4 release.  In that version, all the Core overclock to the max value set for any of the Cores (which causes immediate thermal throttling).

	Is this issue fixed in the last bios? (1.40) Just swapped from a Gigabyte Designare due to issues with the thunderbolt ports,and setting multiplier according to the number of cores in use was dead easy there. I haven't figure out how to do the same on this board. The per core option doesn't even show all the cores (i have a 7980xe) Thanks

	[URL=][/URL]Have you contacted ASRock about it? I contacted the, about the Per Core option, not working properly, they responded within two days (its been escalated now) BTW: it appears to work now after fully resetting the CMOS. I have it set at 46 for up to 8 cores, 44 up to 12, 43 up to 16 and 41 up to 18. Edited by jyavenard - 12 Apr 2018 at 6:10pm
