AMD Releases AGESA V2 1.2.0.7 Microcode to Motherboard Vendors and OEMs
AMD over the weekend reportedly released the AGESA V2 PI 1.2.0.7 microcode to motherboard vendors and PC OEMs. This particular version of AGESA gains importance to those on Windows 11, as it corrects a performance-stuttering issue caused due to frequent polling of the fTPM by the OS. The new version of AGESA is also bound for AMD 300-series chipset motherboards, where it adds official (stable) support for Ryzen 5000 series processors, letting those on the 5-year old platform enjoy an IPC uplift as much as 60% (Zen 3 vs. Zen). 1.2.0.7 is also rumored to address certain stability issues with the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, and enables BCLK overclocking on the chip, as long as the processor doesn't draw more than 1.35 V in the Vcore voltage domain. It's now over to the motherboard vendors and PC OEMs, to encapsulate 1.2.0.7 with their firmware and release to end-users.

I can still enable it in BIOS even with Zen 2 CPU but that does not mean it's actually working with an unsupported GPU.
"System requirements for Smart Access Memory supports all 3000 Series Processors (except for the Ryzen 5 3400G and Ryzen 3 3200G)" - from the AMD page.
It is an interesting topic, but if you try a web search, you'll likely find nothing really useful. Just random people claiming different things without any proof whatsoever.

AMD officially added support after launch for RX5000 series with the 21.9.1, with smaller performance gains than they got with the 6000s - and in some cases, regressions or issues
I have a 3700x, 2080ti, x570 aorus master system and on previous bios F36e (now unavailable from gigabyte's website)
windows 11 had huge stuttering on many games in certain locations due to very high cpu usage that didn't happen on win10
(RDR2 was dropping below 30fps sometimes in towns, Detroit BH similar in the first town square location etc.) with TPM enabled in bios,
upgrading to bios F36f (20/07/22) fixed it.
- i never checked 10 with TPM enabled so i don't know if it was happening there as well.
Prior to that, very few people had fTPM enabled so it went unnoticed.
I did a clean 11 install from usb drive and if i remember correctly tpm 2.0 was required to be on in order to proceed with the setup,
- so there must be a ton of folks out there suffering from this and not even realizing what's going on, ~30 fps where im getting 60+ now is a major difference, people need to be informed about this.
I just double checked and yes - it was still on after the bios update and switching it off only gave me a
"something happened and your pin is not available" message at windows logon, just reset it and windows works fine.
Has anyone tried running a 5600 on this board by chance?
[edit] never mind I see on the MSI forums they are using BETA for all Bios releases on older boards as they are not officially supported anymore.
Anyone tried them with the taichi X570?
Why are these boomers sticking up for shit companies, no standards ffs.PEOPLE ARE SO CLUELESS, I HATE SO MANY PEOPLE RN
ALL THE PEOPLE THAT SAID THIS IS A NON-ISSUE NOW AND SAID I HAVE "TOO MANY BACKGROUND APPS OPEN"IT DIDN'T WORK FOR ME, HOPE IT WORKED FOR YOU
I say seams because I read back through the thread and I'm still not sure what isn't working for you but if you need help fill in your system specs and let the world know your actual issue.
And perhaps try a less agro stance your new here, context is lacking and the vitreal boomer shit is purple and pointless.
A reporter made a post for me on a TechWebsite and they were grilling him because they said this is a non-issue now. I got the Update to AGESA ComboAm4v2PI 1.2.0.7. (Release Notes) (I am Ipzy in the comments)
Look at how condescending they were and after following their advice and nothing changed (dangerous really to flash your motherboard because of possible power outages)
My system specs:
AMD Ryzen 7 3700X Processor (8C/16T, 36MB Cache, 4.4 GHz Max Boost)
MSI X570-A PRO Motherboard ATX, AM4, DDR4, LAN, USB 3.2 Gen2, Type-C, M.2, HDMI, AMD RYZEN 2nd and 3rd Gen
Powercolor AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT Red Dragon 8GB GDDR6 HDMI/3xDP Video Card AXRX 5700XT 8GBD6-3DHR/OC
Windows 11
You debated on another forum, don't then bring that vinegar here, we didn't do anything?!.
I am not personally seeing this issue but have different parts so that means little.
Are you on windows 11 then?.
Is it possible that it's something. Else as well.
Don't know why you're replying since you don't seem to have experience with this but thanks.
Unless you can bring in more contacts
"Fill in your system specs., Calm the insulting tone"
I owned a 3800X on an x570 3 months ago ish so I have avoided this issue with the same hardware too but I don't have it now?!? So I couldn't help?! Hmmn this is going well, I'll leave you to it, hopefully someone else has the issue (in which case could they help you?!?)
So thanks, but bye then I'm out.
