Coming together. Trying to swap over nothing at all from my main build except for the 5090. In case I don’t really care for the platform. Im hoping it exceeds my expectations though, and if it does it’ll be going in to the big case .

Naughty kitty.

I’m putting it together on the test bench with a 480 and a single D5. My cat thinks so many dimm slots are only good for standing on easier. Also, don’t mind my ghetto waterblock mounting. It works!

Hi, I’ve been looking around for the 120hz 3d panels as an entire unit to replace my awful 1600 x 900 display. Seems to be quite hard to find and pricy. I did make an attempt to try and find all the parts individually but that also yielded no results. i was wondering if anyone has tried any other 1080p panels, even if I can give it a custom resolution utility oc to 80hz I’ll be happy. I’m guessing it would need to be LVDS too. I do have a GTX 970m 6GB if that helps regarding compatibility if was able to find a cheap 120hz display. any help would be appreciated, as this current display looks awful.

I ended up just reseating the ssd into the 2nd drive bay & since then I’ve had no problems.

Have we heard of widespread meltdowns in AI farms / data centers where these cards are pushed 24/7/365? The connector is problematic, but I am curious about locations that have large, widespread deployments in use all the time. --------------------------------------------------------- Sugi's run on PR with no optimization tweaks like those who "play" 3Dmark 🤣

Thanks so much for the info. I'll set it up that way as soon as it arrives.

thanks for your interest . ya that's right that happened to me before but in this case it gave 8 beebs . but in this case there is no beebs and shutdown after few seconds

It is a problem. Do the process without the 1070 in. System tries to boot in PEG mode and fails. If you had an 880m or earlier, maybe it could boot

The Asus SP rating on AMD is less reliable because it can vary by temperature when the calculation is performed. It's kind of weird. The hotter the CPU is at the time the calculation is performed increases the SP value. I have only seen a change in the SP rating by 1 with my CPUs. My 9950x has an SP rating of 119 it goes down to 118 if I flash the BIOS when the system is totally cold. It may be different for the 9950x3d2 but 118-120 is about average. My 4585PX is SP120. However, the VF curve doesn't fluctuate as much. You can look at the Prediction area at the lower right to see what voltage value is displaying for a manual core ratio. Try setting a fixed all core ratio of 55.00 and look for a voltage value of 1.400V or less in the Prediction box and see if it will boot with the FCLK set to 2200. If it will not boot with 2200 FCLK I wouldn't want to keep it Use that first video that I shared with you the other day in this thread (added below) for tuning a per core PBO Curve Optimizer. Stronger cores will have a lower voltage value by default and will accept a smaller negative offset then the weaker cores. You want to see as little variance between core quality as possible when you look at the VF curve page in the BIOS. Being able and to set a deeper negative offset on individual cores that have a higher default voltage value on the SP rating page isn't a good thing to see. The wider the SP rating variance is on each core in a CCD is less desirable.

the gtx 1070 was installed but that shouldn't eb a problem I think . I followed the instructions . usb to fat32 with A03 and got the needed file renamed it and sent to the usb then pressing end and putting the power . now all the fans starts and laptop just not doing anything for 30 minutes tried five times . no beebs or anything

24x multiplier gets you roughly 3.2Ghz and is quite easy to acheive. I can do up to 27x on one of my 920XM, other one can do 26x. 24-25x is the "sweet spot" for temps and power consumption

Try restoring defaults in bios and see if that helps.

Since installing the bios when trying to boot I seem to get this. Normally a reboot sorts it. could it be something to do with the new bios, as prior to installing I wasn’t having this issue.

See if you can increase the multiplier on your current cpu. I don't think you can but I never got to test without a XM CPU as that's all I have.

I think the cable can be swapped but it requires removing the plastic bazel which is glued in. Better to keep LVDS display as spare and get a eDP assembly. The 3D panel is quite nice for its time, way better than the 1600x900 display. With my BIOS 970M should work in both PEG & SG mode.

I’m shocked about that! My 5090 Astral OC was an open box from BestBuy so I was nervous since it was $3,800+ with tax, I wanted a return policy just in case, I tried the whole local Facebook market place thing, I almost got scammed with a core-less/memory-less 5090 (AKA Fifty-Nundy) , and this worried me. It’s also very hard to see the chips and core on the Astral models when you hold it sideways and try to peak between the PCB and cooler. When I first plugged in my open box 5090 Astral, I had no display at all. And I was like dang! I got a dud! But turns out I just didn’t have the display port seated all the way in to the GPU. I had to loosen and lower the card down like 0.5mm so I could clear the back I/O material on my case. Then it finally came to life! 😀 But it’s very worrisome buying GPU’s these days. You never know what you’re gonna get. Even if we tested a card that seems okay, it could suddenly artifact or be defective in some way that avoided our initial inspection. For the first few days, I just left it running stock and let it ride. I think mine was 100% returned due to buyer remorse though. It has held completely stable, and OCs good enough for me. Crazy they are stripping 5080’s though!! I’m very surprised by that.

Thank you for releasing this! just installed on my X R3 after receiving today. tons of new options to play around with. this bios is going to be incredibly helpful for overclocking when I purchase an extreme cpu soon, alongside when I get bored of the 970m 6GB I’m about to install which was from my M15X

Yeah I hope AMD is a smooth transition. I might assemble this thing on the Praxis test bench, run a single D5 pump, and single 480mm GTX, this way I don’t have to take anything out if my V3000+ plus case, and I could do some testing and make sure it runs okay. What exactly would a good or decent bin be? Is this based on SP? Or max ram OC with Gear 1? I want to push the fastest Gear 1 speeds possible. 😁 And I’m not settling for a turd chip. I’ll accept average or slightly above average is fine with me. But $900 for a turd is not acceptable.

Update: looks like the spare interposer was in the unused hdd caddy inside a rubber box, smart way to store it but only found it when preparing the caddy for tomorrow. either way the £16 interposer coming tomorrow will be used for my 2nd drive I plan on fitting soon, so not a total loss. going to install windows, update bios, fit my 970m & the remaining ram.

Blindsflash should work fine in most cases. Did you blind flash the A03 version without any GPU in the slot? No other version will work. I changed setting for the iGPU once and bricked mine.
