Motherboards/AMD AM4 by stefan @ 2018-08-13

With the Racing X470GT8, BIOSTAR has built a solid mainstream platform for the AMD Ryzen 2000 series and packs quite a bit of features. The UEFI interface is easy to navigate and within it we can fine-tune the system performance or adapt the settings depending on the installed hardware. Thanks to the total of four memory slots, we can install up to 64GB of RAM and theoretically up to 3200MHz RAM is supported; in our tests, the GEIL PC4 25600 3200MHz CL16 8GBx2 Samsung B-die based kit did run well until 2933MHz, but considering that we were running the latest BETA BIOS, things may improve in the future.

The new Racing-series UEFI interface features an easy-to-use GUI and live monitoring details on the left; the Main menu allows the user to check out the current BIOS build details, currently installed RAM details, adjust the GUI language but also adjust the date/time:

The Advanced section presents itself with the following sub-menus:

AMD CBS

Trusted Computing

ACPI Settings / WakeUp Event Control
