Here’s photos of my bios. One thing I noticed in the cpu hardware monitor is says -99c. What’s up with that?

What should be different if anything?

Someone familiar with Ryzen can hopefully pipe up, but I'd assume you'd want to try turning off AI overclock and performance enhancer to see if that helps.

That -99c is suspect. I can't remember, is performance tanking when you're seeing the high temps too? Can you physically feel the case getting really hot? Could just be a faulty temp guage (not a good thing, even if it's just the readings that are high. Lots depend on this reading)

They might have it setup to have manual as a sort of off for their OC setup. I have no experience with asus boards or Ryzen, so I'll let someone else take over. Tag me if/when you get the case pic/fan test stuff figured out.

Won't hurt to try disabled. That -99C is pretty suspicious as well

That's probably handled in a bios update.

Tarrant Tarrant from what I gather you'd want that auto OC turned on, but there should be a spot where you can set a limit. If you set the limit to something like 1.4V it should lower how high your proc is going. It might be going up to like 1.5V during intense loads.

Btw it seems this chipset has a lot of people complaining of similar issues.

I know I said I'd stay out of this, :emoji_innocent: but even weirder: The BIOS version showing in your screen-shot is 1001. ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING right?

That's not even showing on the product page for your motherboard (older and newer versions are both there), like they removed it for some reason?

(edit: and the build date for the BIOS (your screen-shot) puts it right between 0602 and 1003 on the product page)

It's definitely 1001. It's in the second screenshot he posted


EDIT updating should priority #1 now

Anyone here use Adblock Plus on Chrome? I've used it for years, only today it's started to act up. It needs me to reload each and every webpage in order for it to work, which kind of defeats the point. Anyone know what is causing it, or better yet, have another extension that works better?

Edit: You know, why not just ask here what are essential security extensions for Chrome? I suppose now is as good a time as any to review how my Internet security is and add and remove shit as needed. :)

ublock origin is the new better adblock plus

just get webroot, uses .0001% resources, if you want you can pair it up with avast or whatever other bloated antivirus.

Bios update might fix it. The BMC runs the sensors and for desktop PCs that might be part of the bios image but I'm not sure

Usually sensors don't just go on these boards
