I'm overall pleased with this motherboard but I've got to say, the FAN header placements boggle my mind. Most of them are mushed in to one tiny spot in the bottom part! My case has a cutout near that spot but my PSU partly blocks it. It's even worsened by the thick USB3 cable etc.
I see that you also have the "Unknown motherboard" error in AIDA64. Does anyone know what causes it? Seems really random

Yeah... Fan cables look tidy when you manage to put them in there but I actually had some trouble, initially.
I suppose the "Unknown motherboard" label could be because I'm using an outdated version of AIDA or maybe it's just a Beta BIOS bug.

Hi @Zendal
Did you enabled the new option under DRAM Advanced Settings called DRAM Latency enhancer? If not try msi config as an option.
I have pointed the fan headers position to MSI. hope on next versions they do something about it. My major concern and can be fixed by a new BIOS is to be able to set my NVMe RAID system without setting SATA to RAID mode. I can do it with my ASUS Strix X570-E. Overall now I feel that I upgraded from my Crosshair 6 Hero, I can use my Samsung B-Die to 4133, with the Strix I cud only set it to 3400Mhz unstable.
Here some SS at 3800 with settings:

Yeah, I noticed the new parameter and tried it, thinking that was making the difference, but no luck. Does your latency change at all with that parameter or did you just update the BIOS and got better latency?

4,5Ghz Stable on all cores?
This board should handle it but 4.5Ghz on all cores is hard. My max stable was 4.4Ghz with 1.265 V.
Not much input here, looks like only a few people own this board.
I just moved back to Auto OC with this CPU. And good powersettings.

Yeah, all cores but the cpu passed only CB20. It's enough for me. I played games without any issues. The difference in settings between these boards is only I used LLC on ASUS but on Tomahawk didn't.
Reached 4.5GHz with 1.35V. LLC2. Passed CB20, temperature peak 82C. In gaming 60-65C, idle 50C. Cooler D15.

Just saying hi, new owner here and been pretty impressed so far - beta bios doesn't seem to be causing me any issues and I've just come from being only getting the memory to 3600MT/s on my x570 Aorus Elite to a quick and loose 3733@CL16 on the Tomahawk - no other components were changed and I'm sure there's a bit more tightening I can do.
More than happy at the mo after the debacle of wrestling with GB's BIOS making me think my IF would only do 3600 and that I had a "nothing special" SoC

I think this is not GB fault. It's AMD with bad system Environment.
After years of Sandy Bridge CPU an Environment i had bluescreens, boot issues with Secureboot mode and and and.
AMD needs to concentrate on this Department. Just check your system with LatencyMonitor. All my USB 3.0 Ports have ISR Counts. If i install a Win7 usb driver i have 0 ISR Counts but my system took ages to boot.
I could solve this issue by using the Asmedia 3.1 USB Port over a old USB3.0 Hub. It's facked up. AMD is the issue.
Because of this i hate my Crosshair VI. This will be my last ASUS Product.
Looking Forward - to try the new chipset and Environment.
We now have 3 Tomahawk owner here ?

I'm also a Tomahawk Owner but still in the process of acquiring my gear.
Mobo: MSI x570 Tomahawk
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
RAM: G.SKill Ripjaws V PC3200 CL14 B Die
PSU: Be Quiet! Dark Power Pro 11 850w
Still need:
Case: Might go Be Quiet! 500DX as the Lancool 2 seems to be out of stock everywhere.
Cooler: Arctic 240? Is air enough?
GPU (might borrow a GTX 1050 for the short term)
Anyway, my first build in years so excited to get rolling on this. Will be back looking for advice and providing my experience as well.

I got one of these motherboards aswell and came here looking for some advice
Could you tell me if I RAID 2 500gb Samsung nvme will I still have the sata ports available or does it kick the data ports off
I can’t test it yet I’m waiting for new psu to come
