BEWARE: Latest Gigabyte X370 Motherboard BIOS Can Permanently Damage AMD Ryzen CPUs, Sets Voltage Up To 1.7V

..Gigabyte posted a new BIOS on their support page for the X370 Gaming K7 and X370 Gaming K5. The specific BIOS versions are F5 for the Gaming K7 and F7 for the Gaming K5..

..The issue isn’t technically with AMD CPUs or any other motherboards. It purely related to Gigabyte X370 motherboards...


Hmmm. That's my motherboard. Just changed to F5 BIOS a few days ago. Have to check it out.

UPDATE: Yup, the voltages are "INSANE". Almost 2 volts (1.45 is the most I want to go). So, time to turn it off and re-flash the BIOS.
