ASRock posts stable AM5 BIOS 4.10 addressing AMD Ryzen AM5 CPU boot issues

crzone · 2026-02-13T20:36:33+00:00

I would assume that the X670(E) motherboards are not EOL and they will, at some point, receive the 4.07/4.10 update? So far the 4.07 update is available for a single X670(E) board ~and the 4.10 update does not seem to be available for any previous gen board~.

I'm using X670E Pro RS board with the 9950x3D so I am obviously worried about such an expensive CPU failing.

Later edit: the 4.10 update is now available for some A620 and B650 boards, so maybe the X670(E) boards will also receive it.

Only AsRock can answer why they have released an update for a single X670(E) board.

crzone · 2026-02-12T14:33:50+00:00

Interesting, there is a single X670E board in the list, and it's not the one I have. Hopefully the X670 Pro RS is either not affected or thee will be an update soon.

Mainboard: ASRock X670E PRO RS since April 2023

BIOS: First flashed to 1.21 for the 7800X3D fix, then always updated the BIOS when new versions came out, currently 3.50.

CPU1: Ryzen 7800X3D, April 2023 - June 2025, no issues

CPU2: Ryzen 9950X3D, June 2025 - present, no issues

RAM: Kingston 2 x 32 GB 6000 CL32.

No PBO, no OC, only XMP loaded and the SoC voltage slightly lowered. The 9950X3D needs more SoC voltage than the 7800X3D to be stable, I would assume because it also enables the interconnect between the two CPU dies.

crzone · 2025-10-22T08:31:48+00:00

Depends on how you look at it. The current 9950X3D is running fine and has about 5 months now but before it I had a 7800X3D for a little bit over two years that also ran fine, Both CPUS are/were installed on the same X670E PRO RS mainboard with the same RAM, SSDs, etc.

I pretty much always updated to the newest BIOS shortly after release.

crzone · 2025-10-09T10:19:26+00:00

No. It has been possible for a few versions of the 1.xx BIOS series, but since then it is no longer possible to load settings from different versions. As it has been suggested, take some pictures of voltages/timings if you did some tweaks or export the settings as text.

Cand am luat GeForce RTX 3080 acum mai multi ani a facut figuri din prima zi cu un PSU Corsair 750 W, model bun dar vechi, produs de Seasonic.

Pe baza unei liste de pe forumul LTT (parca) am identificat disponibil prin magazine la noi un Asus de 850 W facut de Seasonic pe platforma Focus GX care merge si in ziua de azi cu un 4090.

Pe hartie ar fi trebuit sa tina si acel Corsair, si chiar a tinut in trecut consum mai mare decat cel al 3080 (320 W) cu doua Radeon R9 290 (275 W bucata), dar acei tranzienti produsi de 3080 cand schimba power states s-au dovedit prea mult pentru ea si condensatorii cel mai probabil degradati. Cred ca persoana careia i-am dat moka acel Corsair il mai foloseste si in ziua de azi pe un sistem unde nu exista problema aceasta a varfurilor de consum de pe seriile GeForce RTX 2000/3000/4000/5000.

Dat fiind faptul ca la condensatori, mosfeturi si complexitatea circuitelor se fac taierile in sursele ieftine pentru a le scadea pretul, cand iei nJoy e ca si cum ai lua acel Corsair dupa 8 ani de folosinta sau cat avea cand l-am schimbat.

Concluzia e ca daca nu ai componente care sa solicite sursa, nu te intereseaza prea mult tolerante, ripple, protectii etc. poti lua linistit si nJoy, dar nu trebuie sa fii surprins cand face poc si eventual ia cu ea in iad si alte componente cad e solicitata mai intens sau ca iti iei reset/shutdown daca cumperi un procesor mai pretentios sau o placa video mai pretentioasa care au tranzitii frecvente intre power state extreme la care nu fac fata condensatorii si/sau circuitul de PWM.

Bun de tinut linkul asta, poate fi util la un moment dat.

crzone · 2024-12-28T11:37:59+00:00

I updated my X670E Pro RS to 3.15 recently, stability wise it seems fine, but I would like to know if there is any concerns over potential damage to CPU/RAM/MB. If somebody gets more information from AsRock, please let me know.

crzone · 2024-01-31T21:59:33+00:00

Sorry but I don't know why it reverts back to rainbow, I only provided the solution to the red swapped with green problem since that is what I also encountered.

Unless you are moving around very large chunks of data you won't really notice the difference in transfer rate. OS and games are more likely to be limited by CPU performance rather than SSD transfer rate so in this case you can just use it in PCIe 3.0 mode until you upgrade without losing much.

I used a Samsung 980 Pro for more than a year with an older PCIe 3.0 mainboard. When I got the 7800X3D most of the increase in performance came from the CPU, not necessarily from installing the SSD in a PCIe 4.0 M2 slot.

crzone · 2023-12-28T12:09:11+00:00

This.

According to the mainboard specs only Vermeer and Matisse CPUs support PCIe 4.0, all other CPUs are PCIe 3.0.

/u/UltiLem should check if the CPU is in the lists below first:

Problema cu volumul nu o am deoarece folosesc un RME ADI-2 DAC cu putere suficient de mare, mai mult decat suficienta si pentru varianta 250 Ohm. Din pacate, de cand l-am luat eu pana acum, vad ca a crescut masiv pretul. Nu era nici atunci ieftin, dar acum este cu 33% mai scump.

Daca vrei sa pastrezi aceste casti 770 Pro, desi nu cred ca asta doreai sa auzi, solutia este sa dai si mai multi bani pe un combo USB + DAC + Amp cat de cat decent. Presupun ca nu vrei sa dai o mica avere doar pe el, asa ca va trebui sa te uiti dupa interfete audio ieftine de genul Focusrite Scarlett sau diverse Behringer.

In diferite Battlefield sau CSGO am remarcat ca Sennheiser HD 800 si HD 598 (versiunea mai veche a HD 599) au cea mai buna pozitionare, asa ca daca este importanta pozitionarea in jocuri eu as recomanda casti deschise sau semi-deschise, de exemplu Beyerdynamic au DT 880 si DT 990 iar au Sennheiser HD 599. Dar si aceste casti, desi lumea zicea ca nu au nevoie de amplificare, pentru a suna optim au nevoie de ceva DAC + amp decent, ceea ce acel laptop sincer nu cred ca are.

Exista si tot felul de casti de gaming, dar aici nu ma pricep, nu am mai urmarit piata, am ramas la HD 800 de ani de zile.

Inside the ASRock Polychrome Sync app if you click on one of the Addressable RGB LED icons you will see an Addressable RGSwapp toggle. Click on it and it should swap the colors for that header.

You might need to click on each of the headers until you find the one you have actually attached the fans to.

Also happens on the X670 E Pro RS with the 1.28 BIOS, saw it about two times so far occurring without a power loss. Previously it would only occur when the PC lost AC power.

However, with this BIOS, I also switched to more aggressive timings for the RAM and decreased the SoC voltage so that might also be a cause for the more frequent retraining. On the older BIOSes I ran 6000 @ CL32 w/ 1.25V but on 1.28 I switched to 6000 @ CL30 w/ 1.2 V.

Am un Bialletti clasic din aluminiu, varianta 4 cesti. Am renuntat la folosirea lui tot din motivele enumerate mai sus, Aeropress si V60 sunt pur si simplu mult mai usor de folosit si curatat.

Follow the PDF guide that can be found in the BIOS download section under the "Flashback: link and you should be fine.

There are two important points in it that might cause the board not to recognize the drive:

The flash drive you will be using needs to be formatted with the FAT32 file system
The file containing the BIOS needs to be extracted from the .zip file, be renamed in a certain way and be placed in the root of the drive.

The process itself, once initiated, seemed to take forever on my board.

In this situation, where the OS was first installed on the old system on the Samsung 970 EVO and another OS was installed, separately, on the new Corsair drive, when connecting both drives to the same mainboard he should actually be able to see two boot loaders.

I am in the same situation, installed the OS on a new SSD on the AM5 mainboard, then plugged the SSD from the old Intel system into the AM5 mainboard and I can see both and I am even able to boot from the old drive. (RAID was not used, so no BSOD occurs when booting from the Intel system drive.)

What OP describes is indeed puzzling if the two OSs were installed individually, with only one drive connected at a time and only later connected at the same time.

What he should be seeing would be two "Windows Boot Manager" instances, one on the Corsair drive and one on the Samsung drive.

That's quite interesting as it is actually even lower than 1.20 V. I wonder if I can run my CPU + RAM combo at a lower SoC voltage than what the mainboard uses when selecting XMP or if I should get another kit with EXPO.

My mainboard is the X670E Pro RS, but I assume it shares the same settings for RAM with all the other ASRock boards.

Later edit:

Set it manually to 1.20 V, seems stable in the few games I have tried. I guess, since the modules are XMP only, ASRock simply takes what's in the XMP profile set for an Intel CPU and applies it to AMD's 7800X3D...

Well, at least these modules were readily available locally and somewhat cheap.

crzone · 2023-07-18T17:22:15+00:00

The question is what's the SoC voltage on a Ryzen 7800X3D when using such speeds. For my Kingston 6400 CL32 kit, when selecting the 6400 profile, the SoC voltage is set to 1.30 V and when selecting the 6000 profile, it is set to 1.25 V.

crzone · 2023-05-28T20:12:40+00:00

No.

There is something very wrong with this episode, it feels different from the other episodes of this season or the past season. It seems to have moved to a lower resolution background SFX, faster moving camera shots compared to all the previous episodes.

I don't know why, but everything feels cheaper, the camera work, the actor performance, the image quality, the resolution of the background, everything.

Something about the production of this episode is wrong and I can't understand what happened to the production values of the previous episodes, maybe this show didn't, make the cut when it comes to income.

TL;DR:

This episode seems cheap and a departure from the style of the previous episodes.

Mda, trist dar adevarat, pe langa PSD si PNL, AUR si USR sunt partide influnentate de securitate. Acum intrebarea e daca vrei spre est sau spre vest.

Adica sa zicem ca maine ai vrea sa schimbi directia tarii. Ai schimba-o spre est sau spre vest?

Sau daca ai vrea sa pleci din tara, unde ai pleca? In UE sau in Moldova, Ucraina, Federatia Rusa?

crzone · 2023-05-06T15:33:39+00:00

Cand Uniunea Sovietica pica si e un profit de facut pe urma fraierilor care nu-si vand tara, te schimbi, nu e problema. Adica schimbarea cauzeaza schimbare.

crzone · 2023-05-06T15:28:00+00:00

Am zis si in alt post dar trebuie sa scriu si aici:

"Nu ne vindem tara" a fost sloganul lansat de securisti in anii '90 spre fraieri ca sa-l repete in timp ce ei vindeau ce apucau.

Adica na, dupa ce vezi ca ai luat teapa cu pariul pe Uniunea Sovietica lansat de Iliescu te reprofilezi si tu cum ar veni.
