Thanks, might have been a bit quick with my criticism

Interestingly, with F37d for my X570 Aorus Xtreme, my core performance ratings changed. I would really like to have more detailed changelogs. Would be interesting to know what they are doing or if it is just another "bug".

Latest BIOS for your Motherboard is the F16c.

and the f16e is released for b550 Aorus master. I reserve testing more to be sure about the usb failing and the need tto set the interface to v3 not V4 and the other stuff to make it reliable for usb connections. so far F16e with no change in AEGSA is making me more than hopeful some improvement MIGHT have happened to this high end MB. Time will tell i rechon.

Shesh, X570 xtreme and 5950x here and still having edc bug, so still pbo/co broken and having laggy like hell bios with csm disabled, that about high end. So nice to see those "5000 X3D" improved beta bios updates lol. BUT YES, gigabyte should finally give us more non beta bioses. Even AsRock has 1.2.0.A out, if I might say so.

Running Win 11 22631.2129, x570 Master. Have owned my x570 motherboard for over 4 years now, running with CSM disabled, and I cannot recall a "laggy" bios. Now running F37e. If I ever had a slow bios, it was surely in the first three months of ownership, when bios versions, final and beta, were in their infancy. Overclocking, btw, is not warranted or guaranteed by any computer component manufacturer. (Read your disclaimer.) I don't overclock, myself, but am satisfied to let the CPU and GPU overclock themselves automatically when they can do so safely and with 100% system stability. No motherboard manufacturer provides only non-beta bios versions, btw. And that is never going to happen. Last, people often imagine that a "final bios" will solve their overclocking problems, and I have no idea why. As mentioned, nobody, regardless of manufacturer, guarantees anything to do with overclocking, including the so-called the "edc bug" which some people have called it. If a person buys a motherboard expecting to overclock, he should know up front it may not work. It is always pot luck. Just because you hear of someone else successfully overclocking with a certain setting, that does not mean you will be successful.

In the first year of x570 ownership, I tried numerous overclocking settings for my CPU and GPU, but soon found that 100% system stability was a lot more fun...;) And I've got it, too, notwithstanding running the latest beta bios from GB. As CPUs and GPUs become ever more complex, the value of overclocking greatly diminishes. Except, of course, if you are someone who prefers overclocking to system stability. Remember that all CPUs and GPUs are verified and guaranteed by their manufacturers to run flawlessly at their default clocks and settings. And not 1MHz higher. I actually owned a nVidia TNT2 many years ago that shipped with a 150MHz clock but would crash every time at 151Mhz...;)

Heh-heh...my last post is flagged as Spam. It's not. I won't bother posting any more out here if this isn't rectified. Disappointing.

Yeah, this forum seems to have some problems. I also got that for editing my post to often.

Yes same issues here, any update on 1.2.0.A please? Other board manufacturers have had this out for months...

No idea, but now F18a is with Agesa 1.2.0.8.

Where is Agesa 1.2.0.A. Give us some more bioses again

Ich denke dass man von Gigabyte keine Agesa-Updates zu AM4 mehr erwarten braucht. Agesa 1.2.0.8 hauen sie nur zum Abschluss noch raus, weil dieses seit Januar bei ihnen in der Entwicklung lag.

Man muss sich nur die Zeitskala vor Augen führen:

AMD:
ComboAM4v2PI 1.2.0.8 (Jan 2023)
ComboAM4v2PI 1.2.0.A (Mai 2023)
ComboAM4v2PI 1.2.0.B (Target Aug 2023)
ComboAM4v2PI_1.2.0.C (Target Dec 2023)

GIGABYTE:
Hat nach 8 Montaten es nicht einmal gebacken bekommen Agesa 1.2.0.8 in ein nicht-Beta Update zu integrieren.
Bzw sie fangen gerade erst an die Betas zu einem veralteten Agesa zu veröffentlichen....

Schade eigentlich. So sehr ich die Hardware-Qualität von gigabyte mag, in Software-Entwicklung sind sie schlecht und zudem langsam. :(
