Intended more as a cautionary tale more than anything I think its important to highlight that GB still haven't released any firmware for their X370 boards updating the AGESA code where Asrock have and I can say that PinnaclePI AGESA 1.0.0.4 (its new, not the 1.0.0.4 you might be thinking of) is very solid fixing a whole hoard of bugs 1st gen Zen CPUs had. The lesson here; Asrock are awesome with firmware updates, GB, as ever, are absolutely horrendous.

Doesnt matter wich site Gigashit brings his 'announcement' they tend to lure u with promises but cant follow suit I use my 370 K7 ~ 1700@3500 low voltage 1.25v for simple www and so on Bought a Asrock little tinkering and fiddeling with bios and no lockups or whatsoever
And Ket still i ow u my gratidute , your patched/slapped bios works lightyears beyond that bogus Gb crap
I wouldn't say I did that much, just identified the problems, repeatedly tried to tell GB where the problems were (which I'll add even for a cash-strapped R&D fixing would not be difficult for 90% of the problems if they had a competent R&D department) and cleaned a bunch of things up and optimised some other stuff. To me thats not really doing a whole lot but I get it is still going way above and beyond what I could have done.

Still your bios isnt crashing all the time like the 'genuine' gigabitter does And after a last contact with their costumersupport it showed me that they only bring up false hope even the us-forum gives false assumptions regarding timetables of a new bios In wich i lost all faith , so i bought a taichi and a 2700 wich runs fine for the highend things And that Gigash*t only for for internet and simple server , VM and so A 1700 OC'ed to 3500Mhz low power consumption , all thx to Gigablabla who's x370 K7 is a nono
Gaming5 and k7 are hysterically bad, in fact all the gigabyte x370 boards are, since ive used the x470 gaming7 wifi board ive had not a single issue everything works perfect, but gigashites poor reputation from the last 18 months is putting a lot of people off buying their x470 stuff though. you did right to buy the taichi they are awesome boards both the x370 and x470 variants, not much bling but very stable.
PinnaclePI AGESA 1.0.0.4 Memory latency is 1ns higher SecureBoot has been fixed Still no Windows 10 Options so UI looks stretched Added CLDO_VDDP in Memory options
Will run few tests, but after F7a, this is their less-broken firmware to date.
