Did you try a reseat of that M.2? I've had such issues in the past where the M.2 was just half a millimeter off the connector.

Edit: Or is that an integrated PCIE M.2? So no re-seating possible on the PCB itself?
Yes ,3 times,also swapped slots between the 2nd and 3rd ones and it happened with both
Thank you

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.
Are you using a av receiver for you sound ? if so ,it could be you hdmi board
also you could have a ground loop as well
power supplies make coil whine as well as graphics cards ,though mostly under load

As stated before it is all the time. When idling and actually just reading a webpage it is like beep beeeep beep beep. When moving the mouse, playing a game or video it is a near constant beep. The PSU and GPU have both been replaced already.
check for a ground loop

Hey mattgb and all, how you rate gigabyte bios support?
Asus just pushed a new bios with microcode patches for their x99 boards! Almost 6 years of patches!

I also checked the list of bios releases for both asus and gigabyte x99 boards, Asus release almost twice the amount of new bios! Either asus firmware is bad need patching or gigabyte is not updating as often?
Lol, Asus can't even ship a BIOS for last gen motherboards with AGESA 1.0.0.3AB that doesn't break things even more. Asus BIOSes for B350/X370/B450/X470 are an absolute mess.

^ this. I mean X370 wasn't an easy platform to do, and they had to rush at the beginning, but from my experience, especially with flagship boards - I had a Crosshair VI Hero before - the BIOSes started becoming usable after over a year post launch.

Coil whine on a motherboard? I suppose its possible but can't say I have ever heard or experienced it.
My Biostar X470GT8 is a HORROR SHOW OF SCREAMS!
You can't believe the amount of coil whine that board produces! The worst offender is when using the ethernet/internet to download stuff. Screams in peril like something evil is going on.
GPU usage whine, hdd usage whine, mouse use whine... It all transports to the rear audio jacks as well. They are useless as such. (front audio is clean from noise though)

But there is a solution... Stress 100% on memory/IMC and all it flees away to hiding in some corner, waiting to re-appear as soon as that is done! What a mess.
The area where that board was the most useless in makes the coil-whine disappear. (barely manages 3200Mhz memory speeds and quirky behaviour for RAM like no other board I've tested) I'm super happy to be back on Gigabyte from that boards mess off a implementation.

Sound is just through the front and back 3,5mm jack. The power supply and graphics card have both already been replaced.

Any suggestions on how to check for a ground loop? I'm on holiday at the moment, but in some spare time in the evening it doesn't hurt to browse the web a bit to check for a possible solution.

The sound is originating from the area where the RAM is and is heard from within the case (not through speakers or headphones).

I'm losing my middle M.2 PCIe ssd every reboot on my ultra board(bios 4f)
I have to shut down and restart to get it back .It's not my boot drive,just storage
is running at 4x speed ,doesn't matter if I switch to bottom slot ,but it drops to 2x there
boot drive is running in top slot with no issues
Thanks
I've also had that issue a couple times.

Additionally anytime I reset my PC it boots into BIOS, as it can't detect the M.2 PCIe SSD in the top slot.

My lovely new Gigabyte X570 is ready for some action. I'm back in the Gigabyte camp after some 10 years, I guess it was Elmor's departure from Asus that made me do the switch this time around.

The power of engaging with the community can not be underestimated.

Anyone notice that the mic input volume on their board is really low? This is the first time I have plugged in a mic. Using an AntLion Modmic 4 and when plugged in to the microphone jack I have to max my mic volume and boost to get a decently audible signal.

I think that's just the modmic, they need a stupid amount of power. I have my modmic5 at 100% with a 30db boost. My Astro headset is fine with 10db. I was dissapointed as well, was hoping the board would power the modmic fine.

Just a report that [PBO]-[Enabled/Advanced] + Ryzen Master->[Auto Overclocking + 25->200Mhz] is borked on AGESA 1.0.0.3ab on Aorus Xtreme F3e BIOS. This is regarding PBO in general on this BIOS. Doesn't work as advertised.

When you enable PBO your "capped" at max 4400Mhz. You can't exceed that clock. [PBO]->[auto/disabled] doesn't have this limit.
Clocks can reach closer to advertised speed with [PBO]->[auto/disabled] for the Ryzen 3800X(4425-4475Mhz have been experienced) but when you enable PBO you get some kind of artificial limit of 4400Mhz that can't be boosted above no matter the settings you try.

This results on worse performance with [PBO]-[enabled] than [disabled] and sticking with the Stock PB boosting as you then get some speeds above 4400Mhz on desktop or lightly threaded loads.

Ryzen Master seems to cause some weird effects when you tinker with it compared to regular BIOS settings. (cores are more prone to go to sleep and software get stuck on reading 4400mhz in idle with real high voltages all the time(basically breaks all but the Ryzen Master readings))
In the screens in particular I enabled PBO in BIOS with advanced mode [AMD OVERCLOCKING] and then started Ryzen Master utility and went to enable the [Auto Overcloking + 200Mhz] feature to test it out if I could "unlock" some of the limits. All it resulted in was borked results. Worse than before. Nothing improved, things only got worse.

I posted some results a few posts back and found that PBO only worked for multicore load when you set PBO to Advanced and set the Limits to Motherboard. Single core boost capped around 4150 but the all core gained 100mhz vs auto. Also this is the only settings that I have found where the idle voltage will not be stuck @ 1.456. However, the single core nerf @ 4100 is underwhelming to say the least. Bios F5g.

I'm confident AMD will get this sorted eventually

Ah ok thanks. Maybe the input on this one is just normal. My last board the mic input was super hot and you had to have all the headset mics at 25% volume or they would distort.

Hi Gigabyte owners, my CH VI died iam looking to buy a 570 , hows This brand bios support cause on the asus side it was freaking terrible, lots of bugs and bad voltage readings, also the fan control was the worst ive ever seen.



Iam currently looking at the 570 Master to pair it with a 3900X , would love to have a stable experience out of the box and not having to wait for a year untill the fans works ok ish :p



What you guys think ?

Gigabyte has been doing amazing things over the past couple years with Bios support and help directly with us the users. GBT-Matthew is also a direct contact for Gigabyte on here. Just as the Z390 Aorus owners thread any time issues are found they get right on fixing the issues. I would get the Master I have the Z390 and X570 Master and both are awesome boards.

Hey more question Matthew, how does the 6 layer pcb master do for 3950x? Asus claims their 8 layers are better to control heat than 6.
3900x seems no problem for master, how about 3950x in your internal tests?

use a cheater plug 3 prong --> 2 prong adapter on your PC and whatever is around the outlets near it
also I know you said you changes your Power supply but it could be that as well
