Greetings to the users of the DIY MiniPC ASRock DeskMini X600, I am opening a thread here for those who wish to have the possibility of adjusting the voltages of their DDR5 SO-DIMM RAM kits (I know for a fact that you wish to do so
) as well as the vSOC, so I am sharing with you a link to download a Beta BIOS that I got from a friend (who himself got it directly from ASRock support).
This is version "4.01.MEM01", but be careful this bios uses an AGESA ComboAM5Pi firmware version "1.1.0.2b" which is less recent than the one present in the latest official BIOS "4.03" (which has version "1.2.0.0a"), so be careful this last one will not support the new AMD Ryzen 9000 series which will be released soon (you need at least a BIOS with the AGESA ComboAM5Pi firmware "1.1.7.0" to be able to run these), I will keep you informed if I ever manage to get BIOSes with more recent AGESA firmware and which of course have the RAM voltage settings available.
One last thing, do not hesitate to share your results and tests with this Beta BIOS, or even if you have questions or suggestions about the settings/overclocking results of the DDR5 SO-DIMM kits, because knowledge in overclocking and its sharing is a very important thing...
[!UPDATE! - 20/08/2024]
So I have two big news, one good and one excellent, the good: I just received from ASRock support the test BIOS "4.03.MEM01" which is literally the same BIOS as the official version "4.03" but with full access to the DDR5 RAM voltage settings/parameters (as in the previous test BIOS "4.01.MEM01") and having the ASESA firmware updated to version "1.2.0.0a" and therefore support for Zen5 "Granite Ridge" CPUs (Ryzen 9000 series CPUs).
And finally the excellent news is that ASRock "BIOS" department has finally made the decision to natively integrate these DDR5 RAM voltage settings/parameters into the next official BIOS updates of the DeskMini X600 (AGESA v1.2.0.1 and later). I think that the many users who reported their problems to stabilize their DDR5 SO-DIMM 6000MHz and 6400MHz RAM kits (the latter even being validated in their QVL RAM for the DeskMini X600) must have played a big part in this decision, as well as the fact that I pointed out to them that in the official PDF manual of the DeskMini X600 motherboard (ref X600M-STX) downloadable on the support page, there is clearly and explicitly the description and native presence of these said parameters/settings on pages 30 and 31, which proved a voluntary (and not really justifiable) limitation of access to these parameters. In short, it is a good thing and finally a proof of good faith and understanding of their customers to put to their credit, to have agreed to come back on this painful limitation.
Of course I added the new test BIOS "4.03.MEM01" to the online upload folder, if you want to test it. One last thing, do not hesitate to share here in this thread any problems/bugs (even if they are minimal and very little annoying) that you have encountered, I will quickly report them and keep you informed of their "hypothetical" management/feedback of these.
