QUOTE(Bonchi @ Feb 5 2021, 07:51 PM) It could be finally one of the fix i’ve been waiting since 2019 if it really is.... but then a new agesa might have a chance to mess up the current stability level.. haihhhh I'm reading mixed response on reddit. Can't confirm it myself because I don't have the issue to begin with. You tried it yet? |

QUOTE(Bonchi @ Feb 5 2021, 11:25 PM) because it's AMD... im gonna wait it out longer to see responses and review first before proceeding to avoid more complications. Rolling back to an older AGESA is not that simple... need to do USB Qflash/flashback which requires a full system strip down. This isn't AGESA, it's the AMD driver chipset package. |

Asus BIOS ain't that well laid out too anyways, at least as far as their ROG boards are concerned. Sub menus after sub menus.
Things you change in the "Tweaker" menu does not get applied unless you also change them in the AMD PBS menus. Lol. |

Zen 4 to have 29% IPC increase over Zen 3? Lofty claims AMD, very lofty.

Can only hope they learnt their lesson. But the fact that Lisa Su is 100% adamant in 1 major release every fiscal year means that they won't even have time to take a shit.

Back in Zen 2, the 3950x and 3800x had a conspiracy theory going on where these 2 SKUs got the best binned 8 core chiplets. Now that conspiracy theory has also spread to Zen 3.
The thing that people often overlook is that the so called poorly binned SKUs like the 3900x and 3700x had waaaay more sales than both 3950x and 3800x combined. The data is then skewed towards the other 2, where more people would complain their CPUs aren't boosting as advertised and cannot OC beyond +200mhz. My point is that no matter which SKU you buy, it'll always be down to luck. |

QUOTE(Bonchi @ Feb 12 2021, 09:45 PM) SSJBenLatest chipset drivers gave me "interrupt exception not handled" BSOD while listening to music. Maybe there's a bitrate channel switch or what i dont know. Oooft. That error is related to driver failure, so could also be chipset causing the BSOD. Really don't know what much else to say about your experience with AMD. But I think I'm done. Will look to sell and build another system once this PKP is over. |

QUOTE(Bonchi @ Feb 13 2021, 12:00 AM) Well... maybe my expectation is abit too high? since I came from using an intel based macbook pro, which never crash before and only ever restarted for software updates even if it's running on windows 10 bootcamp... infact i think It hasnt been shut down for over 2 years now, going to 3.... It's left on standby by just closing the screen and occasionally charge once a week.... Yes, macbook pro retina battery life is a beast despite being almost 5 years old. Just wondering, what version of Win10 are you running on? As far as I've experienced and seen, anything before 2004 had a lot of issues with Ryzen as a whole too.Thus is my expectation of a stable system..... kinda expecting a 99.9% uptime. While this ryzen is probably 90%. It could also be something to do with the RAM despite having done 100 hours of memtest86, errors still bound to happen with OC. I have now rasied the trfc value to 800... perhaps the next owner wont be abusing the ram like me and wont face such issues... perhaps it would be stable with Samsung B-die kits instead of my micron B-dies.. but I no longer gonna bother in spending anymore money on this AMD rig. But yeah I think it's better you move on. A PC's job is to help you do the things you want, not the other way around. QUOTE(targon @ Feb 13 2021, 12:19 AM) Those who always criticize intel being hot cpu Don't know, this preview looks a bit odd. Perf is actually on most cases equal if not lower than 5800x?From https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-core-i7-1...ahead-of-launch Is not a "hot" processor, running up to 18°C cooler than a 5800X under Prime95 load.

QUOTE(Bonchi @ Feb 13 2021, 12:39 AM) version 1909. Should be the latest cuz i left auto update on. Yeah.. I have had enough of frustrations already. now not sure should I wait for rocketlake, or just whack a 10400F straight after pkp hopefully ending this 18th feb. Just go rocketlake straight. For the time being, perhaps you want to update to 20H2? |

QUOTE(Bonchi @ Feb 13 2021, 12:56 AM) spoken too soon, it just BSOD again now with "APC index Mismatch". Looks like it's kernel related... now it's very likely to be my USB devices especially my USB DAC. or perhaps the RAM has already corrupted some of the windows files... it's CNY now and thought of wanna play some games and the problems kept coming now. WTF. Rather odd that 2004 isn't even offered to you yet, by now 20H2 should be offered already. You just gotta go do a force check to update.Somehow that version is not available for update as my windows update manager shows that mine is up to date. Maybe I will check around... The DAC you are using, it was an SMSL M3 right? |

QUOTE(JohnLai @ Feb 13 2021, 07:26 PM) I intend to put it into my current MSI B550 Tomahawk (currently this mainboard has 5600x installed). Don't go beyond AGESA 1.0.0.4 AB and things should mostly be okay. But AFAIK, MSI didn't even release a 1004 AB BIOS for that board, they skipped right to 1.1.0.0 lol which broke a lot of things for Zen 2.Just want to know any potential issues in advance. After all, I did got a lot of surprises on 5950x. |

QUOTE(Bonchi @ Feb 13 2021, 03:52 AM) Found and updated to 20H2 which is on another menu that i had to click to download, not at “check for updates”. Hope your peculiar experience at least has helped people who are or are going to jump into Zen.Yep the DAC im using was SMSL M3. No issues running on my macbook on both OSX and Bootcamp. Just this AMD rig that keeps on giving me surprises after every attempt to fix it. Fingers crossed, I hope my experience continues to be smooth sailing too. QUOTE(JohnLai @ Feb 13 2021, 07:52 PM) Since the mainboard BIOS is already up-to-date to accomondate 5600x, perhaps I need to do a rollback. Oh so it's already on 1.2.0.0? I'm not sure how's the support there for Zen 2. Maybe plop in the 3950x first and see how it goes, after all you may not want to miss out on Re-BAR support too (for Ampere at least). |

QUOTE(targon @ Feb 15 2021, 04:29 PM) It's already a known story and been happening since day 1 launch. My earlier 5950x bsod at bios defaults settings even with no xmp applied. It's documented in a forum in OCN . But there's no REVIEWER dare or bothered to pickup or follow up on it . And what's a shame is it's the flagship CPU that has caused most misery to ppl who is unfortunate enough to have purchased a poor quality or defective silicon. And worse part, there's lots of ppl defending Amd, blaming the issue on ageesa or the AIB or whatever. The best solution is to RMA the CPU until u got back a stable chip that doesn't bsod. Blind love and stupidity. Eventhough I'm relatively error free with AMD so far, I'm not deaf to the issues people are facing.Here's a prime example and here.

I didn't read much into it, but I remember there was some talks where some 5800x were sold with dual chiplets and they're actually just 5950x with one defective/disabled chiplet.
May sound like a conspiracy theory but the fact that they rated their 5950x for the highest amount of cores with the highest clock speeds, having enough samples logically speaking isn't going to be easy especially in these times with tsmc tapped out from all corners. |

I'm fairly active on the Asus CH8 OC and owner's thread, from our collective reports there - the CPU that has the most issues are indeed the 5950x. More often than not, you will see people complaining that they can't even boot beyond 3600mhz/1800mhz IF, these are Zen 2 speeds lol!
Of course some BIOS releases has helped alleviate such cases recently, but it's not untrue that 5950x is currently the CPU to avoid, besides the 5800x which is of a silly value to begin with. |

QUOTE(yimingwuzere @ Feb 16 2021, 03:32 PM) Mindfactory is a German site so no idea if Germans are like muricans when it comes to RMA because it's not a golden sample. Too bad 5900x is like a unicorn.Sadly 5800X is the easiest CPU to get due to its poor value, otherwise I'd be rocking a 5900X now. QUOTE(General_Nic @ Feb 16 2021, 03:40 PM) yupe, I'm sticking with 5800X now because even if 5900X stock available the price now jacked up I don't know how or why they would have another XT refresh. We're half way point through Q1 21 now, 5900x doesn't exist. 5950x and 5800x are a joke and the last remaining 5600x is price jacked sky high.hoping got 5900XT version later then I would swap IF or by the time they have a XT refresh, Zen 4 would be like right around the bend. What's the damn point lol? That's also besides the fact that XT should have the best bins in the respective SKUs, considering they're having trouble even hitting the lofty numbers right now, I don't think things will change very much in the next 6-8 months. |
