GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

[RoyFJ]

i flashed F40b for a X570 board and i couldn't change system mode from setup to user so i could enable secure boot,put it in custom,disabled,enabled,reset keys tried everything,i went back to F40c and i could set secure boot easily no problem.

Face the same issue with my first gen B550 Aorus Pro AC with latest BIOS so running without secure boot for now.

Please clarify, I read that some are having problems updating the latest GG bios AMD AGESA 1.2.0.Cc

"Update AMD AGESA 1.2.0.Cc for fix Sinkclose Vulnerability of AMD processors (SMM Lock Bypass)"

I am 2 versions behind as I fear doing bios update. I updated mine just months ago and now 2 new updates.

As I am unfamiliar with bios, especially correcting the resulting problems, I appreciate the help here on whether this bios update is safe to proceed.

Thanks

Since u are not much used in flashing bios I suggest u to stay on the latest stabe. All gigabyte bios based on agesa 1.2.0Cc are all betas for now and I'll avoid them.

Noted and thanks.

How can I tell when it is not a beta? I assume it is a stable version when it is in GG web. No?

Usually beta bios have a lower case letter (which indicate the bios beta revision) after the major version. For example for my b550 aorus elite ax v2 (rev.1.0) the latest beta bios is called F19d. That "d" means it is a beta bios and that is the forth revision (there were beta bios F19a, F19b, F19c before)..

Non beta bios should be named without that lower case letter, like F19 in my case.

I guess "AMD AGESA 1.2.0.Cc" is considered a beta then.

Nope, thats the agesa version, it's a different matter. What u have to look is the name of the gigabyte released version, Like I said before something like F19a, or FGa or whatever gigabyte is using right now as naming.

Got it. Not this "1.2.0.Cc" Thanks.

For my Gigabyte x570 Aorus Elite Wifi the BIOS download is labelled as `Update AMD AGESA 1.2.0.Cc for fix Sinkclose Vulnerability`. But the release statements says that the 1.2.0.Cc is for 3000-series processors. I have a 5800X, do I need to install some other BIOS?

AM4 500/ 400/ 300series

AMD AGESA 1.2.0.Cb for Ryzen 5000/ 5000G/ 4000G-series Processors AMD AGESA 1.2.0.Cc for Ryzen 3000-series Processors

Gigabyte has updated the info.

See new box.

Cheers,

Gigabyte Finally released Bios's for all Z690's on the 28th F30e
there will also be a new bios early august say support (but im sure it will be late august for Z690 knowing Gigabyte)

Be warned when you disable Intel Default's

AC load line on 13900k used to be 0.6 its set to 0.4 now like they do on 14900k

so will cause instability on 95% of cpu's

Gigabyte really have no idea what they are doing and i have ripped support a new one about this
not that its a problem for me as i can just fix it but it will be for most customers


I Recommend the following for 13900K or 14900K
CPU Vcore Loadline Calibration: Normal
CPU Internal AC/DC Loadline: Auto
IA AC Loadline: 0.60 mOhm (Manually Set)
IA DC Loadline: 1.10 mOhm (Manually Set to Match CPU Vcore Load Line Calibration: Normal which is 1.10 mOhm)

I Recommend the following for 12900K
CPU Vcore Loadline Calibration: Normal
CPU Internal AC/DC Loadline: Auto
IA AC Loadline: 0.70 mOhm (Manually Set)
IA DC Loadline: 1.10 mOhm (Manually Set to Match CPU Vcore Load Line Calibration: Normal which is 1.10 mOhm)

Intel Default Extreme Gigabyte Setting (Default)
CPU Vcore Loadline Calibration: Auto
CPU Internal AC/DC Loadline: Auto
IA AC Loadline: 0.90 mOhm
IA DC Loadline: 0.90 mOhm (Gigabyte have always delib set this wrong it's used to inform the cpu what the CPU Vcore Loadline Calibration is set at
so the cpu can work out how much power is being used which for Z690/Z790 is 1.1 mOhm Gigabyte delib lie to the cpu to fudge the power use numbers they did this on Z390 also, Asus have been mirroring this over from CPU Vcore Loadline Calibration for quite some time in the correct manner)

Shonk, thanks for the info, do you have a recommendation for 12700K ?

intel 12th gen doesn't suffer the problems of 13th and 14th gen. U don't need to do anything special

Thanks, I've stopped trying to make my DDR5 work at his max speed, I have F5-6000U3636E16G by G.Skill, XMP isn't stable, even if I lower to 5.6K it's not as stable as leaving it at his base 4.8K.
I always hopped a new bios will support this module

[barrywhite123]

Has anybody tested the new F30 Firmware ? Is it save to update form F29 ? @Shonk any recommendateions for the I5 13600kf ?
