In any case, just update the BIOS as soon as possible.
As for the recent AMD Ryzen 7000X3D series processor burn incident, after the statement of ASUS in Europe, both ASUS and AMD in the United States made announcements on the matter one after another.
The main reason for the whole incident was that the SoC Voltage exceeded 1.5V. At present, AMD has notified all partners to limit the SoC Voltage to 1.35V or below. As for whether it will affect some memories, it may depend on subsequent users. returns to know.
Judging from the current discussion, GIGABYTE does not seem to have any burning cases.
AMD’s statement on this is much simpler than that of ASUS, but the mention of “overclocking” in the statement is a bit unacceptable. After all, many times this is not caused by manual adjustments by users themselves.
“We are aware of a limited number of reports online claiming that excess voltage while overclocking may have damaged the motherboard socket and pin pads. We are actively investigating the situation and are working with our ODM partners to ensure voltages applied to Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs via motherboard BIOS settings are within product specifications. Anyone whose CPU may have been impacted by this issue should contact AMD customer support.”
As for ASUS, Juan Jose Guerrero, a senior technical marketing manager in the United States, made an explanation on Twitter and the ROG Facebook community in the United States.
Several AMD Ryzen 7000X3D owners have reported CPU and motherboard failures. We acknowledge the incidents/issues and have been communicating with AMD to analyze the possible causes. We have also contacted affected users to provide support and collect additional information.
Ryzen 7000X3D processors do not allow for CPU ratio or CPU core voltage tuning (CPU overclocking) but do allow for performance tuning and DRAM overclocking via PBO2 and EXPO memory. To support EXPO and/or memory overclocking at DDR5-6000 and beyond, SoC voltage has to be sufficiently increased to ensure compatibility and stability. The amount of voltage required varies between CPU samples. Some processors are more sensitive to overvoltage than others, and some are capable at running higher memory frequencies without needing as much voltage.
As confirmed with AMD, any intentional manipulation of these settings can damage the processor, socket, and motherboard. To mitigate this, we have been working with AMD to define new rules for EXPO memory and SoC voltage. To help protect the CPU and motherboard, we are issuing new EFI updates to limit the maximum available SoC voltage to 1.3V.
We recommend updating your motherboard UEFI BIOS to the latest release. Please also ensure the CPU is cooled adequately. Our recommendation is to use at least a 240mm AIO liquid cooler or high-performance air cooler. If you have been affected, please do not hesitate to contact ASUS support for your region.
Our sources told AMD that the original plan was 1.35V, but not sure why the ASUS statement mentions that the motherboard’s SoC Voltage will be limited to 1.3V. As mentioned earlier, the SoC Voltage is limited below 1.35V, which may have a certain level of impact on the memory above DDR5-6000 MT/s.
Basically, ASUS has released a new version of BIOS for its AM5 motherboards on April 21 to solve the problem that the SoC Voltage is higher than 1.35V. If you are currently using a Ryzen 7000X3D series processor, please update the BIOS to The latest version of.
