Im getting exceptional performance with bios F5

f7 and f8 are both dreadful, as you can see my ram speeds in F5 are outstanding:





Dont bother flashing F8 unless you are using an APU, its optimised for apu's more than anything else.
But who in their right mind would buy a top tier motherboard like this to use an APU???

Not sure why that would be @POE_UK - maybe @ket could tell you possible reasons? Maybe best to stick with F5?

Yea m8, im defo sticking with f5 its running great.

Maybe Gigabyte support can tell you why F5 BIOS good with memory but F8 is terrible?
Probably some subtiming has changed it's auto value (one you don't set manually) What you see in BIOS is not always what is being used either, so you can't go by that.

Dunno if you know, but with agesa 1006, AMD revamped PBO menus

Thanks @ket - so maybe @POE_UK currently has them in wrong slots for best performance with F8?

@Lost_N_BIOS, yup, thats very possible.

Tried everything with F8 it still runs like a bag of spanners, so ill be sticking with F5

F5 FTW

Honestly gigabyte should hire people from asus to make them the bios. Had my ram stable for days @3600 14-15-15-15-30 with all the subtimings from the calculator. Got hci memtest running almost 24hours with 0 errors. Today before coming to work played a bit and got a BSOD. Ran memtest again and got around 10 errors in one minute. Wtf nothing changed. Anyone have any idea?

And btw when stressing the ram i run 1024mb instances just in case someone has any doubt

Yes your cpu cannot maintain 3600mhz ram speeds, thats not uncommon, in reality memtest needs to be run for a good 8 hours, the difference from 3466 cas 14,13,10,11 to 3600 14,14,14,14 is none existent, in fact 3466 will probably run faster

@POE_UK i dont get it, if it couldnt run 3600 it wouldnt run for almost a week with 0 issues and then start having issues. Its maybe something windows related? Im using win10 pro activated. I dunno if it updated or not this week. May check that later when home

Doesnt mean much mate, it can take hours for memtest to show an error, windows uses different bits of your ram everytime you boot, once you hit a bum spot you will get a bluescreen
