I think it really comes down to both gigabyte's and asus's customer support. The strix b550-f seems to be more feature filled and also has a better bios.

I bought my Gigabyte b550 aorus elite used from microcenter for $120 and can still return it. I can pay an extra like 20 dollars to get the ROG Strix b550-f gaming. What are the trade offs? I don't have PBO with my b550 aorus elite and I had to update to the latest version of the bios to even be...

I've also heard that updating a bios when it is not needed will sometimes cause unintended consequences. On a different note, I found out that the ryzen balanced power plan may not do much anymore. Apparently it was created to fix a windows 10 issue, but windows 10 fixed their issue which made...

I'll try out the ryzen balanced power plan tonight. I am pretty sure I have explored most of my bios and have found no setting for PBO. Assuming that I am not just blind, could a future bios update implement PBO?

I have AIO cooling, but I have the fan curves set pretty low with the fans going at 100% at about 75C. Should I be working towards keeping them below 70? I haven't noticed too drastic of a drop while under load and above 70C. My CPU rarely gets above 70 and when it does, it usually goes right...

I think you read it wrong or I phrased it wrong. I have the base clock set to 3.95 GHz. In task manager and userbenchmark, the 'turbo' is 3.9 which is under or less than the base clock.

Ah I see. I would like to use PBO with my cpu but my motherboard only has auto and no as options. I have the Vcore set, but I would have done offset if it was available or more easily noticeable in my bios. What is the Ryzen balanced power plan?

I have a Ryzen 5 2600 OCed to 3.95GHz. That being said, it never actually gets to 3.95GHz. My processor has a boost clock of 3.9GHz while the base clock is 3.95GHz. The speed never turbos past the base speed. Here is a userbenchmark that I ran:https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/44014390...

Hey I cleared CMOS multiple times before and after to see if I could resolve the issues. However, clearing CMOS still kept me at square one. I tried updating my BIOS to F13h which is in beta right now and that seems to have solved my problem for the moment. CPU and RAM running simultaneously at...

When I first got my motherboard, I was able to oc my CPU to 3.95ghz at 1.33v stable. The bios version I was on didn't support my memory so I couldn't enable XMP or manually oc. After updating to the latest version of the bios (F13g), I was able to OC my ram, however, I can now no longer OC my...

https://prnt.sc/qk7sv5 My motherboard is the ASUS ROG STRIX B350-F Gaming: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071SGQP1Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have a ryzen r5 2600 and two sticks of 16gb 3400 ram. 3000 is the speed I would like to reach since higher speed is optimal with a ryzen chip. This said, when I overclock the ram, the speed is split between the two sticks. Should I clock the dual channel to 6000mhz for 3000 mhz on both sticks?
