welcome everyone and it is friday and today we're going to be checking out bios's for cpu mining and
how to set them up for hive os and linux based operating systems as well as you can do it in
windows as well if you like to overclock that way but we're going to be looking at our msi x470
gaming max motherboard and an asus tough gaming x570 motherboard i do
have my monitor and everything set up right there so let's get into it
all right guys welcome Rabid here today we are going to be looking at the motherboard biases in
the x470 and the x570 msi asus and see what the difference is and what you actually have to do
now i did do that hive os video where we used my workstation which was a gigabyte but people seem
to be having issues with the x470 msi motherboard can't get their settings in so that is why i am
here today i'm going to be showing you how to do your settings in that x470 msi motherboard
and as well see how we're here we're going to do this asus x570 as well now we're going to
look at the two brands each manufacturer does have their bios a little bit different again we've seen
the gigabyte one in that last video but i will put a clip to that one in the end of this one
so all three motherboards are here here we are first up is our asus bios here and most of the
asus boards they're all the same depending on the version number now whether you update get an older
one whatever it could be a little different but for the most part everything is called the name
the same across the asus biosis so first thing we are going to have to do we have to go to advanced
options that's f7 here we are in f7 we're going to go over to advanced now if you're doing a first
fresh setup you're going to have to go down here we're already on it apm configuration and this
is where we actually set our motherboard to power on an ac power loss so restore ac power loss mine
is still on default it is off so you will have to go into here and turn that on now what this
does do is when you lose power to your house or you turn your power supply off or something
and you turn it back on or regain power it will automatically reboot your rig so again
just like your gpu mining rigs you always want to turn this option on first thing next on our
list we are going to set the clocks to our cpu so we're going to go over to from main to ai tweaker
you just hit the right button my psu just ramped up so i'm not sure how bad you guys can hear that
so we're going to go down here here you can see cpu core ratio per ccx we're going to click on
that and this is where we manually set it so again 36 means 3.6 gigahertz now shift plus we'll make
it go up and just uh minus we'll make it go down so here we are we're already set up across them
all this is where you set your overclocks you're going to do it per ccx and make sure it does all
set at 3.6 again you can set it whatever you want it's all up to you depending on power i
find these to be nice efficient settings and what i do run all my cpus at next up we're going to
have to set that core voltage so we're going to scroll down here until we find the voltage right
here it's going to be auto by default you just go down click on manual scroll down and again
shift plus makes it go up and the minus makes it go down i run everything at one volt you can
get away on some of them most of them actually silicone lottery 0.95 but i said one rig did
have issues so i just put them all at one volt maybe i'll go through and fine-tune everything
they might all run at 0.75 or something so or 0.97 but we'll see right now everything is one volt now
we're gonna have to go into overclock our ram now what i mean by overclock profiles that's your um
xmp profiles or depending on manufacturers dc omp so we're going to come down here i saw dram
here somewhere where abouts was it overclocked here i'm right here so memory frequency now here
that does not list it as xmp or anything you actually set it to what you want to run at so
this is 3200 megahertz ram if i wanted to run it at 3200 i would just scroll down to right there
and now this i'd hit enter and that's megahertz again i am not overclocking it this is the same
as running xmp 3200 megahertz so when you buy ram you know it says 3200 megahertz ram by default it
is not set to that you manually have to add that in your bios but i do find that running the ram
at its full speed does reduce the efficiency and doesn't maximize your hash rates too too
much so i'm just going to escape out of there because i am running this default 21 33 megahertz
and not running the actual xmp profile or docp depending on the manufacturer now some people
depending on your experience level they like to change their stock voltage here as well
i usually leave mine on auto and don't really touch it what the stock voltage actually does do
is think of your motherboard and your cpu as the body and the heart so your cpu is the heart
your sock voltage is actually the voltage that goes to all your peripherals your io and
everything so you can adjust the voltage is almost like adjusting your blood pressure do you want
more voltage or less higher blood pressure or less blood pressure that's kind of how the sock voltage
does come into play so i leave mine at auto i don't usually touch it because we're not really
using any aio so technically you could reduce that but again i'm not gonna touch it here we are
in our msi bios this is the x470 gaming plus max motherboard to be uh perfect so you may depending
where you end up you could be in this one which is easy mode just hit f7 just like our asus and this
is the advanced mode it could boot up either one now you do have your settings oc and m flash under
your advanced tab here and flash that is to use a usb drive flash your bios to a newer version or go
back down to an older version now different bios versions have been noticeably more stable other
times also others can give you more hash rates so it's good to test around with all the biases
of your motherboard at the same time if you don't know what you're doing it's not really recommended
to flash your bios unless you absolutely have to so we're gonna go into settings here in our
advanced menu uh scroll down here again advanced and now we're gonna go to power management setup
this is where you set your ac power offer on deal so restore after ac power loss mine is on this
is where you would go default is off so you turn that on and again what that does is so you do not
need the power button and if you shut your power supply off or you lose power or something it will
automatically turn back on once you do turn it on or your power comes back now that we have this
thing ready to fire back up anytime we do turn the power switch off or on by itself without a switch
we got to do our overclock so that's quite simple you scroll down here you'll go to your oc method
and now you can see everything we have right here so we're going to start right here you can see
x axmp this is your round detail so it is disabled this does have xmp in it unlike the asus where you
set it directly depending on the speed that you want so xmp profile one or two i am disabled xmp
profile off now if i went profile one or two you can see the ram settings here i went one that will
set it now to 3200 megahertz and down here you can see they're both pretty much set the same now deep
inside some ram does have two or three profiles and the higher the number the little tighter the
timings are and it's supposed to be marked faster but at the same time it could become less stable
so we're going to go back to disable because i do not use that again we find it more efficient not
running any xmp profile so now we're gonna have to overclock our cpu here uh default mode i believe
this is usually set to all core i always go per ccx just so i know you can go all core and again
3600 shift plus brings it up and minus brings it down so there we are 3600 that is 3.6 gigahertz
all court do that across all four ccx's that you see here your ratios and then we're gonna have to
set our core voltage scroll down until we do find our voltage settings here we are cpu core voltage
amd overclocking now again this is usually set on auto i click on that go down to amd overclocking
which you can see there go down and here's your voltage you'll see one under the override cpu
core voltage shift plus again puts it up and minus brings it down all done you are now totally set
this is how you overclock your cpu and your ram in your bios for say hi os and linux based operating
systems and some people prefer this way as it's more stable over ryzen master even for windows
systems again everyone does their own thing so do what you do uh feel safe with now we're gonna look
for our cpu sock voltage where are you hiding here you're down here somewhere just like before that
is the blood system for your actual cpu so it was hiding right underneath our cpu core voltage so
just click down a couple and you will find cpu and b stock voltages so this is where you would
set that sock and as you can see it is slightly different than what our asus was putting out but
it doesn't matter i do not set that i just leave it auto again you can do as you please on your
own motherboards once you are done depending any motherboard actually i believe f10 for the asus
and this x11 is safe so you can go right there now you do not have to change anything to actually get
a gpu not to boot on this so you can pull your gpu off this said motherboard again i have not
tested my asus to see if it does do that so keep in mind depending on your motherboard you may not
be able to run it headless with non-integrated graphics is a gigabyte motherboard now depending
on the manufacturer of your motherboard everything could be different example
xmp profile is called xmp that's your ram settings in your motherboard for overclocking running at
3 200 megahertz or the stock settings when i do refer to that that is xmp now depending on your
motherboard like some do call xmp docp in your motherboard others like asus they actually just
have the straight megahertz you have to set the actual megahertz what you want it to be so things
are a little different as well most require f7 take your advanced mode this one does is actually
f2 so here you can see here is actually right now xmp extreme memory profile xmp it is disabled
this i find to be the most efficient settings instead of running xmp so if i hit that and i
go profile one that will actually engage it and tell it to run right here you can see 32 so 3200
megahertz but that is less efficient i like to run mine disabled off and here you can see it's gonna
run 2133 megahertz which we're already doing over here is the 21 41.86 i guess it's saying
so i find that most efficient when i say xmp profile off that means disabled in here we're
not running our ram at the exact full speed that it does uh say to use now we're going to set our
actual gigahertz on our cpu so here you can see cpu clock ratio again each motherboard will label
it something different depending on the brand but these are the main things you do got to look for
so cpu clock ratio i'm going auto this is set on all core already you can see per ccx which means
per cluster of cores which you do see in riser master each ccx are there clusters there but
here we're just going to go all core we're going to scroll all the way down until we do hit 3.6 or
36.00 in the case of this motherboard i passed it already so scroll up come on we're almost there
right there so there we are 36 so that's all core now we're not done yet we do have to actually
set our voltage so here we're going to scroll down cpu vcore that is our voltage of our cpu again i
run everything at one volt so i'm just going to scroll down to the one volt or just click on it
right there done and now you just hit f10 which is save all your settings and you're good to go
for hive os that is how you do your uh bios settings and then this time once your motherboard
your system whatever if you reboot it restart it whatever these are the settings it will load
and that way it is running in hiveos 100 all right guys so that does sum up this video hopefully
it does help some of you guys out whether you're on the msi gaming max motherboard x470
or the x570 aces tough gaming and again we saw the gigabyte one before so uh hopefully
this helps you out if some of you guys were having issues so i did make this video for you guys
again let me know in the comments did it help do you need something more are you still having
issues again remember join the discord there's a lot of helpful people in there as well
