G'day Buildzoid, 🤔about the VRM 50A vs 70A could it be different revisions? When you look at the Screen Printing of the A SUS Spec Page The DIMM Layout is Top Right of Socket after WI-FI vs Your's the DIMM Layout is Bottom Right of Socket next to PROART with R1.03 after WI-FI Plus while both the Pics you showed have 2x 90A VDDMISC in the PCCG listing for "PROART X670E-Creator WI-FI" (Shop down here in Australia) when you scroll down to the Pic with no VRM Cooler it only has 1 90A VDDMISC

@@ActuallyHardcoreOverclocking I never checked the datasheet publishing dates as I generally find them somewhat unreliable, Monolithic Power arent the quickest in publishing datasheets alongside new IC releases either. For example I recieved some RISC-V dev boards last year with MP1612 & MP1657 step down converters that still do not have any datasheets published/publicly available, yet these converters are used in Xbox consoles released years before these boards were fabbed - which is a real shame as those ICs would be ideal step down converters for a pcb design I have in the works - but no datasheet to work from. :) I have owned a ProART X670E since it was released, it is a great board and I have a 7900X mounted in it with 2x32GB for work, I got it primarily due to the onboard Marvell/Aquantia 10GbE which performs awesome, no overheating that I have noticed (I havent exactly been looking, but I would notice degraded network perf), the rest of the X670E lineup across all the vendors is pretty sucky overall to be honest, they are all full of compromised configuration choices [its a result of what happens when PR takes priority over the engineering, sadly too prevalant these days], or just overpriced halo showpieces / tech demonstrations. :)

Can confirm, I have this board and use that feature as a funny KVM with a TB dock with laptops

Always nice to see you go over a part I have. My personal reasons for grabbing this board was the 10 Gbit LAN port, secondary 2.5 Gbit LAN and dual 8x PCIe 5.0 slots. The M.2 layout does have its quirks but isn't bad. I do wish it had a POST code display instead of those simple LED lights. Those 40 Gbit USB-C ports are indeed Thunderbolt compatible. I've attached an external 4x PCIe 3.0 chassis to the board just to see if it'll work. Yeah, it does. I'm also of the impression that you don't need to use the DP input for these USB-C ports to drive external displays either: they'll use the simple integrated GPU to drive them by default which is fine for desktop work but not for gaming. Both LAN ports support AVB audio over the network. Windows doesn't have drivers for it but they do exist on the Linux side. AMD does require some CPU attached M.2 slots per X670E spec, at least at launch. I think this as since change as they've launched the Epyc 4004 line up that uses the same AM5 socket. Having three 8x PCIe 5.0 slots on that low end Epyc would have some server value though it'd leave all the M.2 slots hanging off of the chipset and at 4.0 speeds.

i wonder if the abundance of MLCCs on the output is the secret behind the low number of polymer caps. if the main factor dominating performance in this application is output capacitor ESR and not value, it might be beneficial to reduce the net output capacitance in exchange for a better frequency response. conventional wisdom is "more capacitance more better", and when you add more output caps in parallel, you are also reducing the total ESR, so confirmation bias could lead engineers to assume it's the increased total capacitance causing the performance improvement (or just, newer voltage regulators having better control loops, allowing some of the work previously done passively by capacitors to be done actively by the controller. the output capacitors are acting like a low pass filter between the extremely high-frequency switched power demand of the CPU and the relatively slow response of the regulator; as faster regulators come out, your cutoff frequency can increase). in which case they could be capitalizing on this realization, since polymer caps are pretty efficient at turning dollars into farads, but pretty poor at turning dollars into 1/ohms

You should definitely go for an Electrical Engineer degree. It will enrich your life, make the see things from a different angle, you can even make a side channel or live sessions with EE stuff.

Realtek famously refuses to support it despite claiming their audio chips could even emulate it internally for all their boasting.

Great video as always! :D Full-featured USB4 and Thunderbolt are effectively interchangeable, so its just down to it not being Intel certified which I doubt they will ever issue for AMD boards. And oh the CMOS battery... It was a nightmare to get to it on my TRX40 Aorus Xtreme, you have to take off the entire board backplate to be able to take off the plastic bits that cover the battery... And yeah, this is one of the sanest/best AM5 boards in terms of IO configuration, though for actual workstationy use you would probably want the extra IO available on the W680 Intel version tbh, same for storage boxes and such since they will idle a fair bit lower.

@ActuallyHardcoreOverclocking On page 4 of the MP86992A datasheet, it lists the high-side current limit as 75A for up to 8 cycles (8 periods of what ever frequency the VRM is running at?). This might just be a case of marketing choosing the highest number they could justify. No idea if the cycle count gets adjusted for the current, i.e. it would not make much sense to have only 8 cycles at 75A and an infinite number of cycles at 74.5A, but maybe it is expected that it would go through a thermal shutdown at that point anyway. With that in mind, it is possible that the ASUS engineers were testing this power stage and found that it could do 70A continuously as long as it had appropriate heatsinking, given the 75A hard limit, then wrote that number down in their internal test documents, and marketing just ran with it.

I like this board too. It's my daily driver

Nice! Teardown of the B650E Taychon would be intresting.

On the X670E you get two 4 lane for M.2 or one 4 lane M.2 and USB4. With the next generation 70 class board the USB4 is required instead of optional so as I've been saying the entire time - AM5 is still just a 20 lane platform with the occasional rare better board that offers the additional 4.

problem is that if you try to implement this style of vrm and eff it up... now you got no output filtering. typically you wanna a lot of simulation and then a lot of testing to define ur goldilocks zone, and then your gonna need to be able to account at the controller for whatever future chips and agesa updates might do to your boards already out in the wild and i mean i can go on and on about this , once you have only stage of filtering to speak of, now you end up a far greater risk of feedback loop developing between the switching vrm and the psu that can cause insane swings in the vrm and those single little protection components to break the feedback are really precisely chosen, to filter out very specific frequencies at which what are called "freak waves" can develop honestly the guy who designed this knows what hes doing and knows that he knows what hes doing and everyone on the design team takes his word as like mandate of heaven

i think the post code on ws boards used to be a feature cause lots of workstations were booting from pcie network or storage cards that required csm mode enabled to be bootable. and thats just no longer the case.

15:36 I think it was msi or asrock has a whole bunch of post code back for the upcoming AM5 boards, maybe someone has seen the crys for post costs instead of LEDs back.

even if it doesn't meaningfully improve performance, the bulk capacitor placement could help with EMI compliance (or just the marketing benefit of engineers going "nice" when they see it). i wonder if that's what those MLCCs in the middle of nowhere might be fore; it's not meaningfully reducing impedance to the power stages, but it could be reducing local voltage fluctuations in those planes. i'm not an engineer, just a hobbyist, but the impression i get is that EMC testing is so expensive that designers will just go completely over the top because the a few cents extra on the BOM is more palatable than the threat of failing and having to pay for another round of testing on another revision. (not to mention getting embarrassed at the fancy EMI lab!). So i wouldn't be surprised if those parts are entirely vibes-based.

@spambot7110

18 күн бұрын

ok i'm thinking about it more and some of the placement seems too weird for human superstition. i wonder if they have simulation software that's (semi-)automatically adding MLCCs at the noisiest spots, and that's what's causing some of the weird arbitrary looking positions and values.

I picked up the Asus Prime X670E Pro WiFi (Microcenter open box for $260 vs the no discount available $450 ProArt) instead of this board due to the only real differences being, Back I/O (not worth the extra money to me): no 10gb Ethernet (no secondary RJ45 port at all), no 40gb USB-C (10gb USB-C instead), and it has a 5 Audio connectors stead of 3. Internal layout: the second M.2 PCIe is 3.0 instead of 5.0, and the CMOS battery location is below the Primary PCIe x16 slot, (potentially inconvenient) but there is an actual CLR_CMOS button (which stopped working on my board) and the second PCIe x16 is also just an x4 slot electrically, with the middle PCIe slot x4 being a true x4.

It has tb4 2 ports, 15w PD, they even include display port to display port from your pci-e gpu to display port IN of the MB, so you can incapsulate video output from it to usb4/tb4 port. Also usb 3.2 gen2x2 header to front panel has additional x6 pci-e power pin. So you will have 60 or 65 PD for your devices from this port on your system case.

@ActuallyHardcoreOverclocking

Ай бұрын

So the thing is that the nominal current ratings is already impractical for real world applications as at 50A output an 86992 will produce over 7W heat(an in my exp any over 3-4W per component is basically uncoolable). Though I've gone through a couple of datasheets for higher nominal current rating MPS parts and they basically have the same performance at 50A output. So from what I can see MPS doesn't make any parts with significantly better efficiency just parts with higher current limit settings.
