Thank you for the details. I have got the burning question on the red 1.3v when I set the expo. Now it's clear! Maybe share some tips on mild overclocking for beginners like me?
DUDE!!! lol your awesome, only video I found that had ASRock motherboard that showed me what I needed to do. I had to get my wife to make the usb shareable as I tried 3 different usb ports wondering why it wasn't showing anything lol. Liked & Subscribed
That's pretty easy to do. 1 - Insert thumb drive 2 - Format thumb drive 3 - Download bios to said thumb drive Easy Peasy......it can be a little intimidating at first but it is way
Excellent explanation, thank you. The red 1.3 volt SOC setting ~ Way back, months ago, I noticed Michael Larabel, Mr Phoronix, had issues with an AGESA and an early zen-4 16 core + RDNA latest version, and it had something to do with that 1.3 volt SOC setting, and he ended up doing the GPU test on a previous gen Ryzen, and he told us once they fixed it, or they told him how to fix it, he would revisit that test, but so far, he doesn't seem to have done so. I infer ~ I presume ~ that manual 'undervolt' of the SOC would fix the issue he was having. That did seem to be what the issue was all about, but the question just seemed to slide off the back of the workbench because of the stream of new things... ? Yes, I'm a Linux-head, and I'm not going to have or use any of the Windows tools to set my next machine up. I will HAVE a Windows install, but that's going to live inside a VirtualBox. That's not relevant to the stuff we're talking about here. The issue was that 1.3 volt SOC setting, which was not friendly to the newest latest Radion GPU. If memory serves, it did boot and it did run, but it was getting video scores that were pretty exactly half what they should have been. That SOC voltage was the issue.
I have the exact same motherboard as you and for some reason when I set my expo to 6000 MHz and go back into windows and look at task manager it’s 4800. No matter how many times I try to set it or clear CMOS it just won’t stay
@@lervoide yes save and exit I found if I leave the dram configuration on auto but then on the main page of the OC Tweaker change the thing from 4800 to 6000 that saves but expo doesn’t it’s weird

@@RandomBlake I was having the exact same issue and could not figure out how to fix it until I found this comment. Upping it to 1.4 worked for me too, thanks for sharing your fix!
i get to where it says jedec and xmp but does give me a option to apply xmp it just says memory slot right above those profiles i have a b460 pro4 with 2x8gb ddr4 ram pls help
I got 3.06 bios version, not sure if it caused my pc to black screen (new build as well) reinstalling windows atm ugh. Took everything out and resetted bios
Thank you for this video! I would like to know where I can find a manual on using the ASROCK bios because I don't see any explanations about the BIOS in the manual? I just bought the: B760M Steel Legend WiFi and before turning on my computer I would like to know a little about its BIOS!! Thank you .
you think my xmp trident g skill tridents 7200mhz will work with b650 steel legend at that speed for a ryzen 7800x3d or the up coming 9700x* i dont know which to decide yet
I’m building the same setup as you, but with the 64gb kit. Can I use this ram on the initial boot to get to the bios for installing the update? And then after that proceed with installing windows? I saw in your build video in the comments you said you had to use a slower ram kit and cpu in order to get the initial boot up and bios updated.
If ever you read this can i set this profile and still lower dram frequency to 5200 and what about dram performance mode do i leave that on amd agesa default?
Hey hi, I have a problem with AMD expo , when I go to OC tweaker it only detect 16gb RAM, it says "CORSAIR Hynix 16gb 1 package rank", not two. I have 2x16 Corsair vengeance, both rams are detected but not in OC Tweaker, hope u can help me :(
Hello! Thanks for the video. Does Windows 11 recognize the wifi on first installation? Since I'm living in a dormitory, I won't be able to use a wired connection.
Basic WiFi drivers should be installed on first boot. I set my new build up using only WiFi. Hopefully it doesn’t delete them when I update to the newest bios version.
I just installed a new "X670E Steel Legend" MoBo on my new rebuild. Bios version 1.28. There are 4 new BIOS updates available. Should I download and install them all or just the last released version?
I am not an expert, but EXPO is for AMD CPUs, and XMP for Intel CPUs if I am not mistaken. I have an ASRock AMD (AM5) motherboard, so I saw no XMP profile, only an EXPO profile that seemed correct for my ram sticks.
Hi I just built my first PC a few months ago and have unfortunately been getting nothing but crashes to desktop, blue screens, and even a random shutdown when I play games like baldurs gate on 4k resolution ultra settings (it has even crashed on lower settings as well). I’ve tried reinstalling drivers, replacing gpu, replacing PSU, and still the same issues. I have a b650 wifi, 7900 xtx taichi, 7800 x3d, 6400 32gig ram, 1000 wat phanteks (just replaced to 1200 wat), updated all drivers and windows. I think the only thing I haven't tried yet is disabling xmp and reducing ram speeds. I’ve been reading it’s best to reduce to 6000 but I’m a noob with timings, voltages, etc. Any suggestions would be much appreciated! Thank you!!
Ram issues are sly, they aren't always easily noticeable, I would try and reduce the speed of your ram slowly in iterations until it all appears to work okay. This happened to me, had to lower the speed but everything worked okay
Awesome in-depth explanation tutorial! It not only covers how to update the bios, but covers voltages (including soc)... very thorough and well done!
Dude this is the only resource online that helped me figure this out. Thanks so much for posting this.
Your a life saver. I actually love you. Although you should have showed the formatting and extracting the rom file but other than that 🙏
Great worked for me !! Thanks!!

been nice if would have explained the steps putting bios on the thumb drive

asrock is what EVGA was : ( i miss evga ) but love asrock
did you create the XMP profile previous to BIOS update and it is saved or is it preloaded?
Does it change anything when you are doing it on x470 asrock taitchi platform? im trying to find a safe video! im on 4.70 2021
I heard you don't need usb on instant flash ..f2 bios instant flash pick latest and update ??
What should I do if it’s not showing any xmp profile

2.02 can not trigger xmp after restarting while there are such option in bios. have to downgrade to 1.28 and xmp is back
2.02 can not disable iGPU either
Worked on my 2.02

Just the latest.
How did it go? Just picked up this board a couple days ago
@@just_tom00 the board is chugging along without a hitch. everything is running OK ~
So if ram profile profile doesn’t show then I don’t have xmp ram
I am not an expert, but EXPO is for AMD CPUs, and XMP for Intel CPUs if I am not mistaken. I have an ASRock AMD (AM5) motherboard, so I saw no XMP profile, only an EXPO profile that seemed correct for my ram sticks.
@@rikschoonbeekya I don’t see any kind of ram profile for me.. probably the cheap ass ram doesn’t support it
Hey does it matter if you use usb 2.0 or 3.0 to upgrade bios
as long as the pc can read the usb, it doesnt matter?

It just keeps telling me no image found
That means either the USB drive is not FAT32 format or you have downloaded the wrong bios for the motherboard.
