Update.
Received the board back from service. Missing CMOS reset button. Part of it just wasn't there anymore. DOA.
RMA'd the board back to MSI. Got it back just a couple days ago. Installed and it seems to work fine, but....
As soon as I try to press the cmos clear button, it literally falls apart. Button doesn't work.
I can pull the battery and clear it that way, but that involves pulling the GPU to get at it.
I can seriously not recommend this board. I don't know if other MSI products are like this or if I just got lucky.
I don't plan to purchase anything from MSI again. Do you hear me MSI. Either this board has bad quality control
or your service department is not doing their job.
Why not, if you keep your fans at minimum, of course if you have decent cooler, it is nearly impossible to hear them. I have Noctua NH-U12s with extra fan on my 12700K, 4 case fans, and bellow 600rpm it is impossible to hear them even at nigh in quite room.what's up with the slow response to get the fan to spin up?
When using MSI Center, manual fan mode, it takes 7 seconds to even start spinning.
Why such a long delay?
normally, my fan does not spin under idle low temperatures. I have set it this way.
With the latest bios 7D25v17, has anybody observed their CPU losing overclock settings (mainly core clocks) after resuming from sleep (ACPI S3)?
EDIT: it seems the issue is Linux-specific; it doesn't happen on Windows.
So the motherboard is not to blame here.
Already tried that. I confirmed it's an OS-related issue as engaging the sleep mode in Windows does not trigger a change in core clock settings (when overclocked) after waking the computer back up.There's a new BIOS out now (7D25v18), you could try that one.
I have strange problem with new bios (7D25v18) and in old version 17 it all worked ok. So I have set undervolting by 0,120 and with old BIOS it all worked ok, I have lost minimum performance but system was cooler by almost 20C. With new bios whatever I do undervolting just doesn't stay. I even tried to disable undevolting protection in bios but in that case cpu stucks at 3,6Ghz and it doesn't want to go higer than it. If I enable it than it jumps back to normal turbo boost freq.
Undervolting issue?Did they fix the undervolting issue?
There's a setting in advanced cpu settings that pertains to undervolt protection.... in some bios versions it was enabled by default, meaning that any undervolt set was not applied.Undervolting issue?
