Wow... Was the bios that was released on launch pre alpha? Has anyone tried new memory profiles. I am very interested in scaling performance if the board can actually pull off those memory speeds.

Lots of people on Reddit claim to have been getting excellent results:

Great job from AMD and ASUS!"

So glad I got this board."

Not surprised Asus is first for the BIOS update.

I'm on 9945, running at 3466mhz @ 15-15-15-35-51trc-1T. Still can't boot 3600, so it's not quite there *yet*, but every update is one step closer!

You noticing improved performance with every update?

Honestly, I haven't done *extensive* testing, but using AIDA64s memory and cache benchmark, 3466 nets me the fastest copy speed and lowest latency so far. I've run 2966 @ 12-12-12-24, [email protected], 3333 @ 15-15-15-35, and [email protected] scores the highest so far. Cinebench R15 also sees a tiny bump (1699, my highest score so far). My 1700 seems to be an OCing turd though, as it needs crazy volts, so it's staying at 3.8Ghz for now. But in the small amount of testing I've done, I'm seeing improvements. And more importantly, it's stable. I think!

I guess memory timings don't matter so much and just the overall speed throughput is what matters for Ryzen. Pretty interesting. Hopefully you can clock better with a future BIOS. Hitting 4ghz and running memory at 3466 would be quite a feat

4Ghz is beyond hope for my CPU I'm afraid. My ram is awesome, since i paid extra $$$ for 3600 @ CL15. If I can get that running at 3600, I'll be happy. Almost there, thanks to Asus releasing these test bioses for us to tinker around with. The new ones open up a slew of individual memory timings, the ability to choose 1T or 2T, etc in addition to the AGESA updates. CH6 owners should be all over those, especially the hard core tinkerers!

I have F4-3600C16D-16GTZSW modules with the C6H. Using the 9945 bios, I am running 3600MHz with 16-16-16-16-36-1T. It boots consistently, and in general use has been flawless, but I need to tune further to pass torture testing.
You will need to learn some new approaches with using things like CLDO_VDDP settings, trDRDsc_sm, and tuning ProcODT is more important.
