Hey guys, so I am a little green to this overclocking thing, I'm use to easy one click overclocking on old mobos but now it seems I would have to do manual input on this new Gigabyte Aorus Master motherboard. I did not de-lid my cpu nor lapped it, although now i am considering getting this thing de-lidded or return to microcenter because it is so friggin hot. I did the spin test on a glass surface and it does not spin.



Settings used after having default load optimization :


https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/threads/9900k-5ghz-1-2v-guide-gigabyte-z390-master.18837783/


I had to set Dynamic Vcore (DVID) to +0.050 to be stable at 5 ghz. +0.035 for 4.9 ghz.


Pretty much used settings in the link as well as using XMP profile (Corsair Dominator Platinum 32 gb @ 3200 Mhz) - though in bios says its using 1.38 when ram should be at 1.35 from factory but oh well.


Same profile used on all test (5 ghz):


First CPU Cooler used:


H100i Pro + coollaboratory pro (LIQUID METAL) on surface of IHS and Cooler. under Cinebench I would hit 100C on 1 core with all other cores in mid 90's


I then heard that putting Liquid metal on IHS = bad so decided to switch


Second CPU Cooler used:

Noctua Nh-D15


Super quiet in my case however under Cinebench I was hitting 100C on 3 cores! I used Thermal Grizzley kryonaut All other cores max temps in high 90's


Third CPU Cooler


This is my current cooler:


Kraken x72 with push/pull config with radiator mounted on top. Under Cinebench: 1 core would reach 100C with all other cores maxing out around mid to high 90's...with exception of one being 88 degrees (What the?).


One thing of note: under HWmonitor/info i noticed about all of my cores under VID is sitting at over 2 volts....(Confused).


Was this a bad OC guide?


Gaming temps will hit 80 after maybe after an hour (Assassin's Creed Odyssey) , otherwise itll be mid 70's at most times on first boot. Beyond the hour maybe going into 2.5-3.5 hours, I'll start seeing spikes of temps to 90's at the corner of my screen and then I'll stop playing.

Liquid temp seems to get around low 40's to mid 40's after gaming.


Using 4.9 ghz i can game a little longer maybe 4-5 hours before even seeing it go pass 90 degrees.

Wrong thread.

 

[lincolnunit]

just realized this is AMD, sorry thank you

 

[raysheri]

I wanted to get the Aorus x570 pro wifi but my ram (CMW16GX4M2C3600C18) is not on the QVL support list.

 

[pschorr1123]

And replying to myself
I take this back I just wasn't holding the Q-Flash button long enough, I managed to successfully flash the f4k firmware from the 1st page and it all seems to be working again, so I'm back up and running ...
Thanks

Sweet! Just be sure not to make any changes with RM from now on

 

[IntelHouseFire]

Anyone / @GBT-MatthewH I'm on the Ultra and I was doing some experimentation with memory timings, and the board refused to boot with them, after which I was thrown into a bios with another version than the one I had flashed - it had gone from F4i back to F3. Is this the dual bios feature? If so how do I get back to my updated bios? There's no switch on my board for it. Do I just flash the bios again?

Yes, the backup BIOS was flashed over the primary due to a failure. Just re-flash BIOS.

 

[ljmadness]

Someone can help me?



I'm putting manual cpu clock and when I do that the memory voltages back to 1.2 / 1,242.. such an expensive Aorus x570 Master motherboard, it seems a simple bug and even an update not fixes it, there is any way to put voltage without having to leave the cpu ratio Auto?
I tested Bios: F3 default, F5G, F5I and not success.

Motherboard: Aorus x570 Master
Kit memory: G.skill Trident Z F4-3600C18D-16GTZRX


thanks.

Turn off CSM support, see my previous post with CPU voltage locking at 1.2v

 

[Matrixvibe]

I saw that happen once on a laptop. Make sure all USB 3.x ports are set to 3.x and not set to 2.0 emulation mode. That was what was wrong w/ that laptop that I cured of the same prob in device manager....I have an Aorus Master X570 and I do not have that USB error on mine.

Thanks for the reply! How would I go about doing that? I tried looking in the USB settings in BIOS and didn't really notice anything.

 

[IntelHouseFire]

Yes, the backup BIOS was flashed over the primary due to a failure. Just re-flash BIOS.

So the backup chip is only used to restore the primary, and you never technically load directly into the backup bios? Just want to make sure one of my bios chips aren't permanently bricked now.

 

[pkincy]

It appears that the early adopters of the new AMD chips are paying a heavy price for moving to the new boards and new chips. 141 pages of problems here and the other major X570 board mfg has 67 pages of problems. Frankly it appears that the answer is to stick with Intel or wait a few months until AMD and the board mfgrs can work things out. It seems like the system has a lot of promise but little real performance or utility at this juncture. Am I missing hundreds of happy campers whose boards and chips are working perfectly?

 

[dansi]

Is there a way to increase max boost clocks without making it stuck at there?

I find the bios option lacking
can we disable wifi/bt, disable individual sata ports, disable individual fan headers?

While master seems impressive hardware, the bios makes me nervous, sometimes when i saved settings, it hangs i almost wanted to hard power down. Sometimes when i repeated reboot Windows, bios get locked up. I suspect the gpu pcie initialisation is buggy.

also the help text in bios is not scaling properly, sentences are cut off.

 

[Júnior Nahecio]

Turn off CSM support, see my previous post with CPU voltage locking at 1.2v

Thanks @ljmadness
Worked fine, finally I can use my memory

@GBT-MatthewH

On the wish list along with spread spectrum - Although spread spectrum seems to be ineffective right now.
It is, but the interval is +/-3C. Others have asked for +/- 10C. I asked if we can open this up.

Any news on that?
Do you know whether it is a hardware or software limitation why we can't change clock in 0.1 speed? (100 MHz->100.1 MHz, instead of 100 MHz->101 MHz)
Is it a known bug, that the fan profile (manual curve) doesn't get saved/loaded via profiles?

I also get occasionally stuck after saving BIOS settings and low-resolution kind of appearance but it is very rare.
However, I'm sure that Gigabyte will improve on the BIOS in the next few weeks - the community communication with the help of Matthew is fantastic and one of the reasons I went with Gigabyte this time.

 

[dansi]

Yes i also got stuck at bios with low res screen, whenever i change some bios parameter like svm, and cstates iirc. And my gpu also fail initialisation with monitor when changing bios, i had to hard turn off and on monitor.

Not sure if this is amd or gigabyte drop the ball. These basic functions of bios shouldn't happen on mature am4. Do other x570 venders suffer bugs?

Also anyone got svm working? You want 16 cores to run some virtualization yo!

I run VirtualBox in 3900X

 

[ericchaipc]

anyone try the latest bios yet for x570 master ? so far the f5g is the better bios for my case , boost clock higher, voltage can go lower . not like the f5g constantly running at 1.4 and above .

 

[ericchaipc]

Updated 1st page with latest BETA BIOS. No change log, just the newest files I saw on the server. As always if I messed up a link just @me and I will fix.

what fix or new thing on F5O ?

 

[Athyra]

I'll report on my Aorus Pro F4l results (latest one as of this post, updated from F4k).
Changes since F4k (which I noticed):
- I was able to hit very slightly tighter ram timings (a previous profile that had gotten errors now passed at 300%)

Reproducible behavior:
- Changes to bios require a hard power off in order to boot into windows after saving, otherwise can still go back into bios, but windows wont boot
- Same as F4i, if Chipset Sata Port Enable is set to Disable, then regardless of other settings if cpu mult is not auto then dram is locked to 1.2v
but if it is enabled, dram-v and cpu-mult work as intended
- CSM Disabled still has slow bios response

I don't know if they changed the implementation but on the B350 Gigabyte boards with AUTO-DUAL-BIOS you only reset CMOS or pulled the power to retry to boot from the MAIN_BIOS. If it's bricked it will refuse to post/boot otherwise it will boot normally after a CMOS reset.
If the MAIN_BIOS was bricked you had to do a Press "reset" and "Power" at start ~10seconds to switch BIOS to the backup. It was always a hassle. Might need to retry a few times to get it right. (though not power long enough to shutdown)

The older B350 boards didn't have a recovery function, I think these new X570 did have it & Q-flash. Q-Flash being the important one.

Q-flash has already saved me 3-4 times on X570.
