    Thank you, that's great news!

    No, we haven't. But, let's hope that the new BIOS that Grainger posted above helps.

    It's hard to provide proper feedback on that. On the one hand, 45-50% throttling is quite a lot, so I'd take it as alarming. However, since it's a brand new notebook, there shouldn't be any cooling issue due to hardware failure or dust clogging up the exhaust ports, etc. So it may just be normal the way it is. It may be worth checking what happens if you restart your computer, open AIDA64, open System Stability Test, but don't start any test there. Just let it sit and watch as the throttling is monitored. Now, start a game, play for 30 minutes, and check back to the System Stability Test whether it indicates that the computer was overheating without running a stress test but while playing a game. If throttling exceeds 25% while playing a game, I'd take it back to the shop and inquire the sales persons about it.

    Try to go to AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Stability, and de-activate Embedded Controller (EC) support. You need to restart AIDA64 after altering that option. Let me know if it helps. Also, make sure to not have Asus AI Suite installed on your system, and that if you had it before, then all its background services are also uninstalled properly. AI Suite may just collide with the sensor polling activities of AIDA64.

    For nVIDIA video cards the video memory information is only detected for the first video adapter. Maybe the issue is that ForceWare manages your video cards in a different order than what you expect based on the PCIe slot arrangement?

    Thank you for your feedback

    Thank you both for your feedback

    1) What motherboard do you have? 2) Are you referring to the temperature labelled as "PCH" or the one labelled as "PCH Diode" ?

    1) Single-core PC benchmarks aren't relevant in this day of age. Also, it would grealty overcomplicate the maintenance of the reference benchmark results database. 2) It's not possible to limit the number of cores or CPU threads to be utilized by the AIDA64 multi-threaded cache and memory bandwidth benchmarks. It's by design, since those benchmarks automatically calibrate themselves to use the optimum number of cores and optimum settings (code path) to squeeze the maximum bandwidth out of the caches and RAM.

    It's due to the difference in motherboard and CPU as well.

    It's not that high, so I wouldn't be alarmed by it anyway.

    Thank you. In that case there's a good chance the +5VSB reading is invalid. Check if you can see that reading in the BIOS Setup or in ASRock's own monitoring utility. If it's not there, it's an invalid reading that you can ignore.

    What motherboard do you have?

    I've just sent you a private message.

    Thank you for letting us know about the root cause of that issue.

    Please upgrade to the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme available at: https://www.aida64.com/downloads/latesta64xebeta After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade. Let me know if it helps.

    We've implemented Asus EC bank switching in the latest AIDA64 beta build: https://www.aida64.com/downloads/latesta64xebeta You need to enable both Embedded Controller (EC) support and Embedded Controller (EC) bank switching in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Stability. That will unlock a few additional sensor readings on your motherboard. Make sure to not have Asus AI Suite or any of its background services installed on your system. If you have any of those left around, a collision may occur while AIDA64 tries to perform EC bank switching, and it may just cause a system lockup or sudden system restart.

    The above mentioned new AIDA64 beta update is now available for download: https://www.aida64.com/downloads/latesta64xebeta Let me know how it works.

    Our only guess is that the memory controller (IMC) falls into an unstable state with your 3733 MHz configuration, and that causes the IMC to fall back to a single-channel operation mode. Even though it reports as if both channels were operating properly, the numbers indicate single-channel mode. Another, although quite unlikely guess: there are certain "bumps" in the memory frequency curve where the IMC needs to insert additional wait cycles in order to stabilize itself. That may cause an uneven increase of performance as you increase the memory frequency. But when that happens, the "bumps" aren't that huge as in your particular case.
