Thanks. Plan to do that this evening although GoWR and SWOutlaws seemed to load faster.

Sorta disappointing. Ran Steel Nomad in 3DMark and got a 3940 score with the Ryzen 7 7800X3D with the new BIOS parameter while I had a 3907 score with my previous Ryzen 9 5950X.

Using a X570 Aorus Pro WIFI with BIOS v F37c and trying to install an AMD Ryzen 9 5950X CPU. After install PC wouldn't post. MOBO error led's indicated RAM. Reinstalled old CPU and PC wouldn't post. Removed memory and installed some others. PC booted to Windows. Ran AIDA64 on the memory and got...
