Nice board. Thx for the review.
Great Review as always Kenny.
Digging the white on it alot..
Maybe i am reviving a old topic, but if anyone is having trouble with this motherboard regarding the cpu frequency, you just need to disable core c6 state in the bios:
Advanced > CPU configuration > Core C6 State >Disabled
Looks like AMDs are having trouble with this. Mine for exemple just hang with high loads, disabling this fix the problem. Disabling Cool and Quiet also helps, but the CPU peak in 60-65º all the time.
That suggest you need to look into a better cpu cooling solution. constant 60-65 is too high. It is hanging from the Temps.
