I downloaded a WINPE -Lookalike (the "Sergei" Boot CD, Stripped-down-version of Win10), that enables me to include all mainboard drivers at startup.Īfter "Sergei"-windows starts successfully, and I confirmed that all my peripheral got installed well (including Chipset drivers, Raid etc.), I can now click on Start->Reboot, and all works Because PC1 & PC2, both react in the same way on a Reboot-Request from the installed Windows 10 Pro, this looks like some sort of a Win10&AMD-Chipset-Driver-Like issue. Working-Reboot under following condition: Reboot, NOT WORKING (After 15min where you see the mainboards struggle to power-up, the mainboards somewhere in time decides to completely shut down) I just build two PC's, both have the identical behavior you mentioned, but I found a certain condition that enabled a successfull reboot:
If you have problems then you can always install the previous version F4 back again.īut just to be on the safe side, I would open a Gigabyte Support ticket and asked two questions:ġ- can I install a previous BIOS/UEFI once I updated to the latest version?Ģ- Should I update my BIOS/UEFI to the latest? Just to see what they recommend.Įither way, as mentioned before, if F4 is working fine without any issues then I would just stay with it.īut with Ryzen Processors it seems to be a good idea to have the latest version installed.
If this is true, then I would install the latest BIOS since it updates the AMD AGESA on the Processor plus gives support to AMD Raven Ridge APU in case in the future you need to use one for whatever reason. I noticed that the BIOS/UEFI notes doesn't mention that you can't revert back to the previous BIOS/UEFI. The latest BIOS/UEFI for your motherboard is : Generally speaking, if the BIOS/UEFI version you have now, which is the original version (F4) that came out, is working fine on your computer, then I really don't see a need to update to the latest BIOS/UEFI unless you start having problems.Įven though that view of not updating your BIOS/UEFI unless you have problems seems to be changing some what. So far, from my own experience, I have had really good quality hardware from Asus, Corsair, & Cooler Master products.Īt least you replaced your "Flawed" diamond with a "Flawless" one. But otherwise, best purchase I have made as far as buying a computer case. I did needed to replace the side panel fan that stopped working. Two on top, one in bottom front (to cool the 5 Hard drives I have installed), one in the rear (120 mm), and one on the side panel plus the PSU fan and the double fans (120 mm) on my Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO CPU Cooler.
But I need to remove the board to see which type it uses before purchasing it.Įxcellent computer case. So I going to see if I can just purchase the USB ports and solder new ones on the electronic board. But when they include shipping and tax cost, the part cost almost as much as the computer case. But at Cooler Master the part is not that expensive. But I do need to replace the top panel electronic board with the USB and computer buttons. That means you're throttling during most compiling, encoding, decompression and some gaming scenarios.I have a similar computer case, the Cooler Master HAF X. It took less than 30 secs sustained load for it to throttle at stock settings. while waiting for my NH-D15 to arrive I was running the Hyper 212 EVO from my old computer on my new 9900k.
You'll never get full performance out of a 9900k with your Hyper 212 EVO. You need to dissipate around 200W of heat if you're running at 4.6 Ghz and your cooler has a TDP of 150W. You'll be throttling in any stress test with a Hyper 212 EVO on a 9900k. Nice and quiet and good enough for me! The black looks nice had the RGB fan hooked to my ASUS mobo rolls slowly through the colors.A Noctua NH-D15 on a 9900k maxes out in the 70's degrees with no OC. With a i9-9900K and a 4.6GHz OC, I can run the fan at low speeds and have the temp max out at around 70C. It works fine as long as I don't go crazy overclocking the CPU.
