ASUS AMD Beta BIOS Releases

[I.nfraR.ed]

It's currently not possible to test it with Prime95, because I don't have AMD retention bracket for the Megahalems and it's only put on top, plus I don't want to stress the board right now.
However, Cinebench score at 5GHz 1.44V was pretty normal, no throtling and I have no airflow around the VRMs. The board is on a stand without a single fan installed, except 2 Enermax Magma on the cpu, running at lowest possible rpm. Will test with proper cooling soon, just need some free time, it's my 24/7 system.

Problems with the board are not huge. I can think of only these described, plus AOD doesn't work before you enable and then disable again Turbo control within the software.
But core frequencies are not dropping like with Bulldozer even if you don't do it. You had to apply the same Turbo on/off trick to stop cores from dropping on Bulldozer.
Now you just can't change multi before the trick.

So, please tell me if I have got it well:
1) Turbo control can be disabled only while in Windows
2) Multiplier too can be changed only in Windows because of 1)

Is it right?

Bye.
