Still waiting for a new bios though, this one seem to have some quirks.

A new beta will be out in the near future.

Well, that sure are good news. Would be a shame to leave such a wonderful motherboard unattended :up:

Good Day,

We have replicated the floating CPU-NB voltage problem finally and will have a BIOS fix shortly. Thanks to the members who assisted us. :clap:

the new 0801 (non beta) is the one which contains the fix ?

No, it will take a couple of days to get the fix in the bios :)

Now if you could only replicate my 2000 c6 32m runs the board will really be cooking :D

That bios has the same date as the beta 0801, i think they are the same.

Does anyone use Linx for teste stability on yours AMD 890X systems?!... Here i can't pass well Linx on my Asus 890FX CH IV + 1090T, even at default... :shrug:

I use LinX in most all of my testing.

Give them some time lads, I'm already glad they have replicated the bug... don't think the new bios will be named 0801 again

It was removed since the floating CPU-NB VID bug was validated. We will have a new beta out as quickly as possible.

guess it didn't happen ;) Then again when have I ever publicly stated something that I had not managed to do. Things that make you go hmmm :p:

I can tell you that if it happened it did not require ln2 or DI on ram or retarded volts like some would have you think is necessary.

Need to provoke you a little to break out the screens. :)

Curious what it took if it didn't take crazy volts. Tell us more man!

Same thing it has always needed. Finesse and not brute force.

TBH i have just been doing performance compares to find the sweet spots. Be posted sometime in future.

What the, i've had issues with 'bios boot block ( or something' earlier, but now i cant seem to get out of it? :S perhaps something is frozen that shouldnt be frozen?

Was benching for a bit, rebooted, and saw the - 0.2V NB voltage. i made a safe of the bios earlier, so i selected that to see if i could fix it, and rebooted.

And then it said bios boot block crap, checking cdrom / flash drive for C4F.rom. so i put my usb stick in there, changed my 0801 bios to C4F.rom , it says succesfull, but with rebooting i get the same crap again?

it wont do any other bios. now im stuck @ -190 with a faulty bios :( , seriously, never had such a :down: motherboard before. im sure it's not dead or anything, but this is utter crap.
