I have a Gigabyte GA-AX370 Gaming 5 motherboard with a 3900x and with BIOS F51d and found as you said, above 4g and resize bar in my bios. Set it as you said and it rebooted fine. Not tested with games yet. But it appears to be working fine.
Update, don't activate this if you have an unsupported graphics card, like I did, such as don't activate this if you have such as an RX 580 (😄), like I have. Playing Wolfenstein: New Order, it was having glitches in the outtakes. But it's available on my Gigabyte GA-AX370 Gaming 5 should I upgrade my video card.
Uefi needs to be enabled with 4g and bar enabled. I installed win 11 which made my Quest2 almost unplayable but my Rifts is running extremely good ...getting 3 ms time frames now.

Nice video, just wanted to mention that you swapped out EZ and Advanced mode :P the button signifies the one you will be switching too when clicking it.

Using your guide I had no problem enabling SAM for my RX 6700 XT on my MSI B450 Tomahawk Max, but my system auto boots to bios. Any ideas will be highly appreciated?
Just an idea: Perhaps, your bios now switched to UEFI mode. Try to switch back to CSM and try to reboot. If that works, you need to reinstall Windows. It is important, that you switch to UEFI mode, before you install Windows. You can't enable UEFI mode afterwards.
i have an msi b450 motherboard. Its a piece of shit that doesnt work with bios updates to try to enable sam. I even reinstalled windows and got MORE problems.

Thank you very much because I just got a new gpu and was wondering if this was available for my motherboard because I have not see any videos covering Msi motherboards
It doesn't work. Boot priority is erased. Some say to disable CSM support then re-enable it. I enabled 4G and resizable BAR, saved and exited and it went straight back to bios - the boots priorities had all changed. I changed them back and saved and exited and got a screen saying no OS drive. I loaded the default bios and reset the boot order. It finally posted. This is too much mucking around.

@@heygeek3816 yeah, it booted completely with bios updated as well but after I enabled smart access memory it's no longer booting I just get beep code errors. I've been contacting gigabyte itself but their customers support is very slow
As I can see in current YT videos, SAM gives a nice boost of 10 FPS approx, while REBAR from Nvidia gives in many cases barely 1-2 FPS in other cases none. Can we expect Nvidia optimize the drivers and ReBar algorithms to give similar improvement in performance as AMD's SAM? Thoughts?
I appreciate it boss. I always thought my 3900x did not support Sam but after watching this video I now have Sam. Let's see how it does on my 6700xt.

The options will be slightly different so you can look up your particular board's options or dig into the settings until you see similar options.
