@GBT-MatthewH

Have you had any other reports of coil whine on the X570 Master? Can I RMA my board for the defect? It's extremely annoying to have a high pitch in your ear all the time.

I thought i was going crazy i think i have the same issue
x570 Aorus Pro


did you fix the issue??

 

[CaptnJones]

I just noticed it but in bios on my Aorus x570 Pro in the xmp profile instead of 3600mhz it shows 3500mhz is that a glitch?
I have Corsair Vengeance LPX CL18 3600mhz 2x8Gb

There's hardly any info on motherboard fan control out there for those of us who're trying to build silent PCs, so I figured I'd start. I'll stick to the features provided by the BIOS/UEFI, because a) this is a Linux build and b) I avoid motherboard vendor software even on Windows. Questions & improvement requests in bold.


+ All fan headers can be controlled and switched between PWM and voltage control.


~ Newer BIOS versions grant limited control over the chipset fan (3 fixed profiles). This feature isn't as useful as it sounds, since my chipset idles at 60+ °C [Is that normal?], so it's not even off on "silent". That's with a Noctua NF-A14 mounted below. In the current configuration the chipset fan is just as loud and annoying as I'd feared.
...
.

Can you please do me a favour and run heaven benchmark for 15min and then check your pch temps?
Im also having issues with high pch temp. Mine idles at 71-72°C

 

[CaptnJones]

Yeah im us ing HwInfo. Played Pubg the other day for less than an hour and the pch temp went to 86°C :/
Could it be a temperature offset like it was with ryzen 1st gen where the temps were showing 20°C more ?

The other chipset temp is around 55-56°C on idle.

 

[CaptnJones]

That's pretty warm man, what kinda case/airflow setup you have going. On my P5 and my Wetbench I stay around 50-60C. Granted its just open to the room temp air.

Maybe repaste it?

I have the nzxt h500. I tried all sorts of fan setups and nothing changed the (X570) chipset temps. My gpu is covering half of the fan - also noted when i moved the gpu to the other pci-e slot the idle temps would be around 10°C lower but even still when gaming for about an hour they'd still rise for 20°+. If i turn on my gpu fans to 70% i can actually cool the temps while web browsing - after 20min i got the temp down all the way to 59°C from 70.


This is how it looks like when i leave my pc on overnight - room temp 27°C

 

[CaptnJones]

Is anyone having problems/restarts, data corruption due to whea errors in the PCI/PCIex bus with the latest bios? You can log them in the HWiNFO64 screen, leave the program running.

I get them almost everytime i do a heaven unigine benchmark - gtx 1070, latest nvidia drivers
No restarts just the error show up on hwinfo

 

[CaptnJones]

Hey guys is it possible that i've received a faulty motherboard?
For the past few weeks i've been having trouble with audio cracking/popping, sometimes even out of synch.

R7 3700x
x570 Aorus Pro
Gtx1070
Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x8 3600C18
BeQuiet Pure Power11 600w Gold


I've tried everything from clean windows install to trying an AMD gpu i just can't get rid of the problem.
Running the latest beta bios

I'm not having these issues on my older intel haswell pc. Any suggestions what to do before i ship it back for an RMA?


edit: My system just rebooted - Kernel 41 error

 

[CaptnJones]

The Ultra like the Pro only has one Bios (no switches on the board at least)
I tried clearing the CMOS with the jumper, pulling the battery, etc etc.
Tried holding down the qflash button, the LED on the board never lights.
Previously the RAM LED's would start strobing when power was applied not it just sits there cooler running and CPU light on.
At the time it happened I was trying to swap out of Game mode in Ryzen master, it wouldn't enable the second Chiplet until I entered the Bios, after it booted I noted the Fabric clock was wrong (set to 3733 with 3600 RAM, it had been set to that earlier but I'd resolved it) rebooted again to fix that in the Bios, and that was it, never restarted.
Hopefully I can get it RMA'd reasonably quickly.

You 100% about that? Because I never had to clear the CMOS jumper when the pc wouldn't boot cause of ram settings. I just wait a few minutes, shut it down and turn it back on and it boots. Have the x570 Aorus Pro

 

[CaptnJones]

Has it been fixed yet if you remove your ram from the mobo your bios gets reset?

Since you do not appear to own a Gigabyte X570 motherboard it appears . . . Could you take your complaining elsewhere? These boards have tons of performance AND utility as you incorrectly state, regularly TROUNCING INTEL performance. Yes, please wait for us early adopters to work things out for you and dream of owning a X570 Ryzen. I am so very happy with my Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master and was already helped in this forum and have no issues asides from aRGB lighting post above which has already been fixed.

Well thats you but I and a couple of others have had a ton of early adopters problems. I might have even gotten a broken mobo (my audio is crackling every now and then), my ram despite being supported by the motherboard im getting kernel power error 41 reboots when i use XMP profile. The bios is reseting when you unplug your cables/turn the switch on the psu to 0. When you restart the pc it takes almost 15 sec to for the pc to boot (on the motherboard leds are switching from DRAM to CPU). You have to disable sleep mode in power plan because when the pc goes to sleep mode you wont wake it up anymore... That's just a few problems i've been having. I've spent over 1000€ for these parts and i was at least hoping for it to work as it was supposed to.


edit: oh and i forgot the Latency which is absurd

[CaptnJones]

@CaptnJones
I know it doesn't help you much but I'm not seeing latency issues here - https://i.imgur.com/28bPm4U.png - or audio crackling - and since F5L bios I'm finding XMP is stable for me (in second and fourth slots)

Aorus Master F5L, Ryzen 3900X @ 4.3, Corsair LPX 3200CL16

Tried a clean windows install at all?

Otherwise, perhaps you need to RMA.

You need to have latency monitor open for at least an hour.

I've tried literally everything. Clean install, all AMD drivers updated, even tried the latest beta bios for the mobo. Then i heard someone saying on reddit that if you install the chipset drivers on the motherboard and then install over the one from amd that there's some issues. Thought that might be it did another windows reinstall still the same issue. Then i replaced my PSU cause apparently that could also be an issue - nope. Maybe the ram is broken? Did a 4hour memtest no errors. Even installed an AMD gpu cause apparently Nvidia is the problem? Nope still high latency and audio crackling. Changed the sample rate in audio properties to CD quality - still the same. I'm getting crackling sound from my rear, front ports and even through HDMI. So maybe i really got a damaged board.

@PopReference @CaptnJones
For those who have audio crackling issues when overclocking memory (or maybe crackling in general?) For me it helped to raise VCORE SOC.


But be wary of the issue I stated here: https://www.overclock.net/forum/28097046-post1427.html


So always check if the voltage increase is actually applied. It might also help to use load line calibration for VCORE SOC without raising VCORE SOC voltage.

I'm getting audio crackling even when i have bios optimized settings loaded. The sound cracks, sometimes freezes and is completely out of synch the other time. Also when I for instance stop the video playback on youtube It's like the pc freezes for a second. I'm also issues with reboots happening because of kernel power error 41. I've tried 2 different psu's. Still happening
I've aleady talked with the shop and im sending the parts back for rma.

Re: Der8eur's video. I had to comment on it and this is what I think of it. Accurate, but very one-sided and only showing one thing. Survey excludes any PBO over-clocking or other over-clocking. I HOPE all the trolls don't start griping because I think RYZEN 3000 CPU's ARE GREAT. My comment:

"I'm in with the Majority on 3700X at 4.375 Mhz max boost, BUT, even without PBO ever being enabled, all the 8 cores usually sit at 4.275. You should have stated that most the cores sit way higher above base clock without any intervention. You look at the bad, but not at the GREAT. My chip is only 25 Mhz under advertised Max boost single core, but NEAR MAX BOOST on ALL CORES ALL THE TIME. YOUR SURVEY/REVIEW is WORSE THAN EXPECTED."

https://youtu.be/DgSoZAdk_E8

You sound like a fanboy man. Tone it down a bit. Der8auer isn't a bull****er like Adored. He's a proper engineer who knows what he's doing.

 

[CaptnJones]

is it normal for Corsair Vengeance c18 3600 to show as 3500 in the XMP profile? Is that some sort of a bug?

 

[CaptnJones]

A little update of the issues I had. I've sent both the cpu and the mobo(x570 aorus pro) back for RMA - apparently they were both broken since i got both new. I had issues with crackling sound even at optimized settings and the xmp profile was bugged aswell(was showing 3500 instead of 3600 in profile 1)
So far it's working fine no issues whatsoever.

 

[CaptnJones]

Btw, what temps should i be expecting with Noctua DH15 3900x on X570 AORUS Pro?
I am currently getting from 40c up to 85c depending on the loads.
Before on the stock cooler i even got to 100c which i notice is beyond the tjmax or 95c,
so i am worried i might have broken something, but i hope the safety features inside would have throttled it long before then though.

Also hope my previous question didn't get missed about SVM or whatever it was called causing issues with Core Temp and maybe other stuff that i don't know:S

thanks

What method did u use when applying the thermal paste? Try using the x spread method

 

[CaptnJones]

these never actually install, do they? I guess we need for official Gigabyte chipset updates.

When you're installing the newest version of AMD chipset. Go through these steps

1. Uninstall the previous version
2. go to your AMD folder in (C:\AMD) and delete all the files
3. Install the latest version


There's some bug that if you don't delete the files in AMD folder you'll still have the previous version installed even if you uninstalled it earlier.

I just installed this motherboard yesterday, and I noticed that the idle CPU temp of my 3700X is jumping like crazy. It's like 38, 50, 44, 55...etc, in succession. But when running a stress test, it stays steady around 76.
The idle temp jumps are causing the fans to constantly spin up and down. The only thing I've done is updated BIOS to F7b, and enabled XMP. Any ideas??

Go to bios and set up the cpu fan curve manually.

 

[CaptnJones]

I set these options for manual overclocking on RAM. Isn't it enough?

https://ibb.co/4P2ZdxS

https://ibb.co/3SWVTvD

And these photos for the XMP Profile 1 of my RAM:

My RAM's box:

Profile options for my RAM on the SPD tab:

https://ibb.co/XtgmvLw

This was one of the issues i also had. X570 Aorus Pro with Corsair Vengeance c18 3600. The XMP profile would show 3500 instead of 3600 and because of it i couldn't use the xmp profile (crackling sound, crashing Kernel power error41...)

I sent the board back witht he cpu and they sent me back a replacement and now it works without issues

 

[CaptnJones]

Coming from F6b to F10a



In Cpu-z before I had ST 489 MT 5388. Now im getting ST 523 MT 5505. All settings on stock/auto. Mobo X570 Aorus Pro. I think it also boots a tiny bit faster. Hope it's stable as the previous one


cheers
