Motherboard ASRock X370 Gaming-ITX/ac and AB350 Gaming-ITX/ac

[ruddevil]

ASRock A320M-HDV R4.0 board was the first to get the 1.2.0.7, followed by X370 Pro4 and A320M-HDVP. The fact they release it for an X370 board brings optimism that the B350 would get it too.

I can put a 5XXX series in my asrock ab350 ITX now??

Yes. Definitely. But you have to cross flash your bios to x370 ITX bios. Or you can also wait AB350 ITX bios to be released.

Interesting. So after 2 years of release hiatus, ASrock released 2 versions where they split the support between Cezanne and Vermeer/Renoir. Looks like the AB350 Gaming-ITX/ac will have similar split versions. The AB350M Pro4 mATX model only needs one version to support all of Cezanne, Vermeer and Renoir.

Beta BIOS with AGESA 1.2.0.7 has been released for Fatal1ty AB350 Gaming-ITX/ac. Version 7.20 supports all of Cezanne, Renoir and Vermeer.

I got my 5600 this week and installed it today. No issues so far.

My AB350 Gaming-ITX/ac initial BIOS was 5.60. I first flashed to bridge 7.00 (AGESA 1.0.0.6) and got no problem booting Ryzen 3 1200. Finally flashed to 7.20 without any issue. UEFI looks are different between 5.60, 7.00 and 7.20. 7.20 has blue hue instead of red. I noticed the Fatal1ty branding has disappeared starting with the bridge BIOS (7.00). I replaced the 1200 with 5600 after that and everything is working perfect so far.

Validation can be seen here.

Hello, I just bought a Ryzen 5 4600G and with the latest bios (7.40, 2022-11-09) works perfetly fine.
I'm really happy of my upgrade path (Ryzen 3 1200 -> Ryzen 3 3100 -> Ryzen 5 4600G), this motherboard is really amazing.
The only small issue I have with Windows 11 is that's impossible for me to run any RGB software that works with the integrated controller on the motherboard, I can only use from Bios, but it's a minor thing.

Edit: The last version of Asrock RGB Software (from the Motherboard Download section) is finally fixed and works perfectly on Windows 11. Install and reboot, it should automatically upgrade the RGB controller firmware, if not you can do it yourself from an administrative terminal:

cd C:\Program Files (x86)\ASRock Utility\ASRRGBLED\Bin
wICPFLASH.exe /File=nu51_1.10

Reboot and should work.

Anyone have issues updating the AMD all in one driver that Asrock recommends, when updating to newer bios versions? I got my board to bios P5.30, but when trying to install the all in one driver, I get a pop up that says " Setup has detected and incompatible build. Setup will now exit." Any tips on where to start with this issue? I've already contacted Asrock CS, just looking for any additional info.

Anyone have an unknow device in the ACPI tree? Device manager report an hardware id ACPI\NULE0000.
I installed all the drivers, even the AMD All in One, but no changes. When I installed Windows 11 I didn't have that issue, it's something in the BIOS? Thanks.

Edit: I found the issue! Was Opencore, my ACPI was not perfect, so I have this random device wich is gone if I boot directly on Windows 11.

Has anyone an Opencore EFI for the motherboard that works fine with the latest Ventura 13.3? I have upgraded my GPU to an RX5600XT and now after the apple logo with loading bar, I have a 20 seconds of black screen, after that all works smoothly.
Ok, I fixed updating the EFI with latest OpenCore.
