AIDA64 causes the fan ramping issue, especially cracked copies. and you have to remember the x470 boards are brand new, i would wait untill new firmware revisions have been released, cant even find "relaxed throttling" setting on my x470 gaming7 wifi

Aida 64 has a known issue with asrock am4 boards yes. it randomly ramps the fans up to 100% due to code collision.

asrock are very good, they will indeed give you a new board within a couple of days. just take note on the aida64 problem though, aida are working on an asrock fix

Well well well, my x470 gaming7 after only a couple of days use tried to brick itself tonight, damn, luckily i switched to bios number 2 and reflashed the original bios back. so it seems the same shit is happening on x470 too, as beautiful as this board is, i am back with gigabytes antics of piss poor uefi problems. its all fun and games until someone loses an eye.

Any hint if we ever gonna get the LLC settings for the Gaming k5, got jabaited buying this one cause the Gaming 5 was unavailable, rip.... ty for you hard work

Never im afraid, ket is absolutely sick and tired of fixing these boards and rightly so i would be as well, my advice is sell and buy asrock.

Darn... Thank you

Adding options like LLC might not even work if I did, not to mention doing things like that would be very time consuming, far more so than I'm willing to put in. Also, as I still get asked about it, I don't unlock P-States with these modded firmwares because GB keep breaking P-State overclocking so its just easier to not bother with it.

Thanks for the answer @ket, i'm pretty sure it is capable of handling LLc since all components seem to be present. Gigabyte just need to stop misleading people. Advertising Extreme overclock when it's not even overclock friendly. Anyway I would like to thank you for the hard work once again making this mods. Have a nice day ,✌️

https://youtu.be/ZB7NG1PkGEQ based on this video it has the chip da regulates vdrop and LLc. Soo I actually thought it had LLc options. Gigabyte equiped it with good components.

Just checking in to see how things are going amongst the Gigabyte anti-fans, lol.

My X370 K7 has been 100% stable after I dialled my Corsair RGB RAM in at 3372Mhz @ 14-15-15-15-39 but I need to throw 1.43V at them. I'm very happy with your work, @ket So much, in fact that your last K7 BIOS is now flashed to the backup-chip. ;)

@POE_UK I missed your quote back in April regarding my RAM voltage. It needs to run that high to be stable. It'll boot at lower voltages but either the computer hangs, freezes, programmes crash to desktop or an occasional BSoD. I seldomnly run very RAM intensive tasks. Basically, I've expanded my responsabilitites at work so my video-editing plans are put on hold along side my spare time. If it lasts it lasts, if it breaks I get to buy new hardware. I'm a geek, so either way I'm happy. RAM temperatures have yet to pass 50 degrees, though.
Even going down a notch throws a few sporadic memtest errors.

The Gigabyte X470 Gaming 7 is quite the looker, I must admit. The Taichi, as well, but the pricing is quite different, I see. Locally there's almost a 50% premium over what I paid for my X370 on both those boards.

No worries @hansen_DK im running my ram at 1.5v to get 3500mhz cas 14,13,12,12, yes the lighting on the x470 gaming7 wifi is absolutely incredible, literally every port and zone has its own dedicated settings, its a beautiful board! ive seen people run their ram at 1.6v so dont worry about that, it seems gigabyte needs to have the memory voltage pushed a bit higher than asrock. the same speed on asrock i only needed 1.42v to be memtest stable at 3500.

The reason why i need 1.5v is the fact that ive tweaked every single subtiming setting, this alone needs more voltage, in fact dare i say tightening timings needs more voltage than mem clock speeds? i think im right here on this one.

p-state overclocking has become absolutely useless to me now, the 2700x does such a good job of overclocking itself you will never need p-states! so im gonna ask mr bios man if he can totally wipe this feature out of my bios rom as i will never need it.

Heh ... I just HAD to go fiddle around with the RAM timings this morning.
Not a single Mhz more, nor the slightest tightening of any timing is 100% stable. 3333Mhz + BCLK 101.2Mhz
- The End.

It will boot at 3500Mhz CL14, though. I really think it’s the IMC and not the memory that’s holding me back.
It’s weird how the limit is the exact same, no matter which stick(s) of my set of four I use in which slots.

I was thinking manual overclocking is more or less dead with XFR2 and beyond. Intel better move quick.

I felt kind of stupid being drawn to the X470 G7 but it looks really good and seems better built than my X370 K7.
I’ll skip this generation, though. Unless my setup dies.

I might even skip the next-gen GFX as well. I really want to get off Nvidia, though. I hope AMD will launch something perfect for my 1440p 144Hz monitor.

My memorys running proper quick at 3525Mhz with really tight timings, 14,13,10,11 even works great at 3600 but theres no speed benefit to be had by running 3600. ignore the 116c temp, its a bug in memtest on a 2700x, the cpu temp is 39c and 68 under 100% load with intel burn test, im running a tripple rad with neochanger pump tho

even tho memtest is showing xmp 3466 its actually running at 3525mhz on my gaming7 wifi board, seems memtest only shows stock speeds unless you buy the pro version.

memory is corsair vengeance xmp 3466 rgb samsung b die

I will also say 2 x rx580 in crossfire are much faster than a 1080 from nvidia, so you could always use one now and buy another later on.







Ive also edited the bios and enabled this synco setting, although im not 100% sure what it does its not hurting anything.

I recently had a weird issue, performance in terms of ftps went from 110 to 46-55fps in cinebench and similar or worst fps drops in games like pubg. cpu loss was not that much i went from 1680 cb to 1400. This is with a ryzen 7 1700@3.82Ghz. After flashing latest and older bios (mod and stock), and install amd chipset drivers, problem persisted, then i userd DDU to uinstall nvidia, intel and amd graphic drivers, my graphic card is gigabyte gtx 1070, but somehow i had catalyst drivers also installed, after uninstall with ddu un safe mode, reboot and install latest nvidia drivers performance went back to normal... But after a reboot, the problems came back. What i did then was:
1. Configure windows not to install automatically software for my hardware
2. Uninstall every Gigabyte software i had on my computer (@BIOS, App Center, EZ and AIO or something similar)
This really fixed my problem, in fact i scored better benches than before in cinebench r15 (124fps/1701cb), and pubg in ultra at 1080p is totally playable again with 80+fps. After i reenabled #1 (windows to install drivers atuomatically) and problems didn't came back, i guess gigabyte software was the culprit, i remember Ket recommended uninstalling every gigabyte software somewhere in this post and i thought it couldn't be so bad, well it seems it is (or can be) that bad.
