    Happy New Year! Just a suggestion, but I thought, maybe for benchmarking the next major upgrade (ie. Ryzen 4000 series), you might just record a video on your camera/phone of your current BIOS settings, and just play the resulting video back whenever you've performed a new BIOS update. With so many sections in the BIOS, it is surely a pain to have to type them into a document, let alone having to write them down by hand. Best part about this method is that you can record yourself voicing your concerns and thoughts of things to try when the next BIOS revision becomes available, or even when it becomes time to do a total upgrade.
    As for me, I would hope that future mobos, particularly premium ones, would at least attempt to save your current BIOS settings into a profile and translate as much of it as it can, over to be compatible with the new, BIOS update. Given how things can be removed or added-in by the manufacturer, this would make things so much easier for the user.

    Thanks for the review - really appreciate it. I'm still running an Intel i7-4790 from 2014. I'm now looking to upgrade - not necessarily because I "need to", I just "want to" :) I mostly use it for dabbling in various coding projects (heavy focus on machine learning at the moment). I've been eyeballing the Ryzen 9 3900. I definitely don't need bleeding edge performance, but having 12-cores would be awesome! The 3900 is very reasonably priced too.

    The X470 needs the latest BIOS so that it will recognise a Ryzen 3000 CPU.
    One potential error that can happen, if you don't read the BIOS releases history is that some BIOS's depend on you loading a prior BIOS before loading the newest BIOS.
    With my GigaByte X470 AURUS Gaming 7 Wifi, I had to install a previous BIOS, then load windows and run a program which fixed USB compatibility issues before I could install the newest BIOS.
    The RUclipsr "Good Old Gamer" fell for this trap and was stuck for about a day with a system that wouldn't work properly, until he read up on this fact with his 400 Series GigaByte board.

    If you are looking for RAM to go with your Ryzen 3950X the I would advise you to get this:
    www.overclockers.co.uk/team-group-8pack-edition-16gb-2x8gb-ddr4-pc4-28800c16-3600mhz-dual-channel-kit-black-my-08q-tg.html
    I have it running, without any problems at MCLK 1867 (3733) and FCLK 1867.
    I don't know how long the price will last though.
    The nice thing about the RAM is that if you have clearance problems, the top of the RAM heatspreader can be unscrewed while still retaining the heatspreaders on the side.
    It is Samsung B-die.

    Nice video but you may have to re-evaluate your cooling solution a little :) Oh and the numbers AMD print on the box (4.7ghz) are mostly fiction and falsehood. It may boost to 4.7ghz on a single core when its idle but whats the point when the system is doing nothing. Keep up the good work and merry christmas

    Hello Rene I come asking for advice. I've recently bought into the Thinkpad meme and I'm very happy. I've gotten my filthy little mittens on an E595. You are a big expert on Ryzen Mobile thinkpads and linux in general. When I look at the clock speeds it looks like it's not boosting. I've updated the bios and installed the microcode and linux-firmware. I have it in single-channel at the moment. I have an inkling it is boosting despite only showing 2,3Ghz and cpuinfo saying boost isn't supporting because I have a memory trace of reading Ryzen mobile APUs boost- they just don't show it in linux. Invisible boosting? I ran Geekbench5 and got a whopping 950! Wow! I'm running the phoronix-test-suite build-linux-kernel 1.8.0 . What result could I expect with it being in single channel. Any advice to see if my laptop is boosting or to make it boost.
    Thanks bro and I looki forward to your next few videos and streams.

    @michaelnager6059 4 года назад

    Yeah, in that case with that cooler you are throwing performance away hand over fist with regard to the 3950X (I have one as well).
    You should allow a MAXIMUM voltage of 1.3 Volts (in my case I can run the 3950X at 1.29375 Volts at 4.3 MHz all core.
    If you are running stuff that is not heavily multithreaded then you can turn SMT Off, run it as a straight 16C/16T CPU at 1.3 Volts and a clockspeed of 4.4 GHz.
    Yours is now that second ASUS board that has severe problems with RAM, which my GigaByte board does not.
    If left to itself, your ASUS board will use way too much voltage and will degrade the performance of your CPU significantly if not kill it outright within a year.

    • @renerebe
      @renerebe  4 года назад

      I never had a defect CPU in my entire life. I will try with 1.3V just for the fun ;-) I run massive parallel Linux compilation stuff, so SMT for me, too ,-) Next week I should get a fancier Noctua cooler, let's see if that improves thermals and performance. If not maybe liquid cooling in 2020 ;)

      @@renerebe Well if you are not wedded to the case (and with a twin chiplet CPU I would not be) then you should get the Noctua NH-U12A cooler which I have.
      It is BETTER than a 280 mm CLC and is only bested (and not by all that much) by my AlphaCool Eisbaer LT360. A 360mm CLC where I have replaced the fans with three Noctua NF-A12x25 fans.
      A RUclips site called "Hardware Unboxed" put a 3900X (12C/32T) CPU into an ASUS motherboard and left the voltage on AUTO.
      They managed to fry their CPU. Just a word of warning.
      Because my 3950X is just a test system, if you want, you can send me an E-Mail at "NagerMike@Gmail.com" and I can let you have a look around my configuration with TeamViewer.
      BTW the Michael part of "Michael Nager" is obvious, and Nager is the German word for a rodent, and a mouse is a kind of rodent.
