I’ve noticed that from time to time, questions about BIOS settings, BIOS updates, or chipset drivers appear on the forum. In many threads, you can find questions and valuable tips - unfortunately, these useful tips often get lost among other posts, which is why I decided to create this thread. In t…

PSA: I think changes in recent Windows 11 updates have created issues for Asus GPU Tweak III, even the latest version v2.1.3.3. I began having issues - the PC would hang upon reaching the desktop, or hang when shutting down. So I did a complete reset, installing all my normal apps including GPU Twe…

Did a Bios reset today after installing the new Noctua 420mm aio. Got my fan speeds set, AXMP enabled, Fclk 2000 Mem/U 1:1 but put PBO to Enabled over my usual Advanced treatment. Will get some sim time in and see how this setup does. I feel like I’ll go back to the advanced way of tuning but worth …

A bit of background news today about the BIOS industry - virtually all BIOS has a company named American Megatrends International (AMI) behind it. AMI was acquired today by Lattice Semiconductor… Good news is they state they maintain a commitment to an open ecosystem. I doubt there will be any notic…

I also tune my GPU along with tuning BIOS, using MSI Afterburner and checking and monitoring with HWInfo. A whole slew of new sensors just became readable in the latest beta of HWInfo, including individual VRAM sensors on GDDR6X and GDDR7. Will be interesting to see if there are any surprise hotspo…

With AMD motherboards for Ryzen processors, you really don’t need to change much. I have the same CPU as you, so the settings from the first post in this thread, based on an MSI motherboard, should be all you need. I think you should be able to adapt them to your Gigabyte motherboard without any pr…

Thank you. Do you recommend disabling SVM and IOMMU, also known as Core Isolation? I saw that it can affect the security of the system. How is the performance without that?

You can disable virtualization if it’s not needed. On AMD platforms, this means SVM and IOMMU. Disabling SVM and IOMMU can improve overall PC performance, but one Windows feature will no longer be available: Core Isolation – Memory Integrity. [image] Memory Integrity and Virtualization-Base…
