Intel 12x00 series Alder lake

Unify-X is in. Kingston RAM is here, but will test this TeamGroup one more time with the 1DPC board.

I'm back on my 12700K, seems like it survived the ASUS massacre. I'll buy a 13900K on release and keep the board and RAM. Easy upgrade and I'll be done for a long while.

The ACE was nice, but this Unify-X is even sexier if you ask me. All blacked out, no RGB.. just how I like it ;)

Nice! Glad the CPU survived it, can't wait to see the upcoming Intel/AMD match.
 
Intel Confirms "Alder Lake" BIOS Source Code Leak, New Details Emerge

Intel Confirms "Alder Lake" BIOS Source Code Leak, New Details Emerge

The person or organization behind the hack remains unknown.

We recently broke the news that Intel's Alder Lake BIOS source code had been leaked to 4chan and Github, with the 6GB file containing tools and code for building and optimizing BIOS/UEFI images. We reported the leak within hours of the initial occurrence, so we didn't yet have confirmation from Intel that the leak was genuine. Intel has now issued a statement to Tom's Hardware confirming the incident:

"Our proprietary UEFI code appears to have been leaked by a third party. We do not believe this exposes any new security vulnerabilities as we do not rely on obfuscation of information as a security measure. This code is covered under our bug bounty program within the Project Circuit Breaker campaign, and we encourage any researchers who may identify potential vulnerabilities to bring them our attention through this program. We are reaching out to both customers and the security research community to keep them informed of this situation." — Intel spokesperson.

The BIOS/UEFI of a computer initializes the hardware before the operating system has loaded. Among its many responsibilities, the BIOS establishes connections to certain security mechanisms, like the TPM (Trusted Platform Module). Now that the BIOS/UEFI code is in the wild and Intel has confirmed it as legitimate, both nefarious actors and security researchers alike will undoubtedly probe it to search for potential backdoors and security vulnerabilities.

Is this a "OMG they can haxor the 12th gen now!" or a "Cool we can play around with the 12th gen bios!" kind of thing? I'm really not sure.

Crashed in WD Legion using XMP II. Loads of people complaining on reddit and ASUS forums.

Looking at the boards compatible memory, my F4-3200C14D-16GTZR doesn't appear in there. I guess I'll need to wait for more memory support/BIOs update to come out for an official fix. Will up SA and DRAM voltage if issue persists.

So after almost one year, (I have been monitoring the ASUS memory compatibility website with every BIOS release) the Strix z690 A Gaming now supports my DDR 4 CL14 memory :rolleyes:


Looks like I should be able to revert the SA VID voltage offset. I might be able to go back it play around with XMP I this time since I couldn't be arsed previously.

Might do some benching again for shits and giggles
 
The board may just auto-adjust the SA voltage for you automatically with XMP enabled now
