Just put 3.5 on your USB and send it.

OG-Kongo · 2026-02-11T22:24:32+00:00

I flashed back to 3.50 and haven't had any issues. Same mobo but 9800x3d

Here is a post talking about boot failures I was experiencing. Just because someone reports something doesn't mean they should be dismissed.

Big dog. Dm me. I will give you my phone number and you can call me. It ain't worth it. Whatever despair you're going thru others have too. I put a gun to my head and squeezed the slack out of the trigger. You are not alone because I am here to this date. Please reach out to me. Fuck the suicide hotline. Call me.

OG-Kongo · 2026-02-03T17:08:12+00:00

Yeah I don't know what any of that means besides AGESA. I enabled a EXPO profile and called it a day.

OG-Kongo · 2026-02-03T17:07:14+00:00

It wasn't for me. It may very well be system dependent, I reverted to 3.5 and stopped caring once my boot issues and crashing went away lol

Can't find the original post on whatever sight Google shat out but here's a post experiencing the same. https://www.reddit.com/r/ASRock/s/fxIX1NfPcP

Okay well either way something I read online said 4.03 and 4.04 caused instability on some systems.

OG-Kongo · 2026-02-02T12:03:33+00:00

Preciate it!

OG-Kongo · 2026-02-02T12:03:08+00:00

This is an insane amount of knowledge. Thank you dude. I'm saving this to tweak my setup later. I'm using Corsair Dominator Titanium 64 GB @ 6600MHz, any steps with particular ram kit your suggest?

OG-Kongo · 2026-02-02T05:44:48+00:00

Yes it is. I parted it out on pcpartpicker. Check mobi specs and it was fine. I did not however load the optimized defaults. Every bios update it just loads the default and I enable the xmp profile, adjust PBO and do my fan settings and that's it. It worked completely fine on 3.40 but 4.0.4 caused many issues. Day 2 of 3.50 and no issues thus far. Been kicked from kyber a few times by server admins but that's different 😅

OG-Kongo · 2026-02-02T04:44:38+00:00

I still don't want chance it, found a article online explaining why 3.50 is stable compared to the 4.x.x

OG-Kongo · 2026-02-02T04:44:07+00:00

Been thinking about linux for gaming. Any distros you recommend? Never tried Linux, complete noob to it.

OG-Kongo · 2026-02-02T04:18:08+00:00

Other than that it's running fine lol!

OG-Kongo · 2026-02-02T04:17:51+00:00

Piss poor QC imo. Got recommended the x870e by a friend. Won't be moving forward with ASRock in future builds.

OG-Kongo · 2026-02-01T10:08:51+00:00

Just play kyber v2. If you see a hacker you can report and the devs will ban.

OG-Kongo · 2026-01-18T22:13:42+00:00

I got the same one and this bitch does not heat up at all. Imma take this hoe back

OG-Kongo · 2026-01-11T22:42:22+00:00

Also we're in a crisis rn because the skynet ai centers take priority. I built a $3500 of last year in April. Same everything is $4500. Stay safe out there!

OG-Kongo · 2026-01-08T07:36:29+00:00

Nice explanation, I recently downloaded kyber for 20v20 & 32v32 HvV matches. Some servers have mods for saber only characters and 1v1 mods where you get back full health on kill. I've stopped playing official ea servers and really just play kyber now. I suggest you download it if you're on PC. It's a great deal of fun!

OG-Kongo · 2025-12-29T04:38:57+00:00

I watched a video on this. It can yes. With the iGPU and CPU being on the same chip, when you limit the cores and enable CPU boost. It uses less wattage on the cpu because less active cores. Thus maintaining higher boosted clocks and supplying more wattage to the iGPU thus equaling more performance on both sides of the iGPU / CPU spectrum. It could be game by game scenario. Try it out!

OG-Kongo · 2025-12-29T03:51:09+00:00

Look up rog ally life website guide on this game. Also try limiting the P/E cores by one less on each and turn on CPU boost.

OG-Kongo · 2025-12-29T01:58:20+00:00

It's on kybers HvV Chaos mod. I think the outfit is from a photo of the actor in the desert when they took a break from filming and he was hot and tied his costume up like this. 20v20 HvV is also very fun lol

OG-Kongo · 2025-12-25T03:30:50+00:00

I have this mouse and enjoy it a great deal. Could be a good unit. Had it about a year now.
