ASUS AMD Beta BIOS Releases

[_Cyber_]

a first, fast conclusion of M3N-HT Deluxe 3106:

fixed:
* disabling CnQ does this now on all 6 cores, not only two
* CPU-info in bios shows now 6x 512 L1 cache (not 2x)

not fixed:
* P3 state is still invisible for OS! This is in my opinion a bad bug, System only clocks down to 1600MHz (instead of 800MHz), if the missing P3 state is unlocked with PhenomMSRTweaker TurboCore does not work any more
* Downcore Option in bios only offer disabled and 1 core instead of disabled, 1 core, 2 cores, ... 5 cores
* Difference between setted VID and real Vcore semms a little bit better - here a "translation Map" VID -> Real Vcore:

0.8125V -> 0.8V (including this line and all further lines 1600MHz)
0.8250V -> 0.816V
0.8375V -> 0.832V
0.8500V -> 0.848V
0.8750V -> 0.864V
0.9000V -> 0.896V
0.9500V -> 0.944V
1.0000V -> 0.992V
1.0500V -> 1.056V
1.1000V -> 1.104V
1.1500V -> 1.168V (including this line and all further lines 3200MHz)
1.2000V -> 1.216V
1.2500V -> 1.264V
1.3000V -> 1.328V
1.3500V -> 1.376V (including this line and all further lines 3800MHz)
1.4000V -> 1.440V
1.4250V -> 1.472V
1.4500V -> 1.488V
1.4750V -> 1.520V
1.5000V -> 1.552V
1.5250V -> 1.584V
1.5500V -> 1.616V


This only occurs under CPU-Load - this values are with running prime Large FFTs in background.
If I stop prime it looks i.e. like this:
1.5500V -> 1.568V


in bios I've setted Vcore to Auto. Any hints?

still not implemented:
* TurboCore cannot be disabled in BIOS

as soon as the bios offers the P3-state to OS the bios would be quite OK, the other points are only minor "enhancements" which would be nice but not necessary at this moment.

I've not tested any multiplcator-settings or Referenceclock-settings in bios, the only options which I am setting is the NB speed to x13 (2600MHz) and the HT-Link locked to 2GHz. I only overclock with K10stat and the VID / multiplcatorregisters of the CPU.

anyway, thanks at this moment for the work, keep on!
