Yup - I am anyway. Annoyingly, Biostar released beta BIOSes for their other X370 boards, but not mine. At least for the time being I haven't been doing anything to need my RAM at full speed, but it'd be nice to get that off my mind.

Asus and ASRock have their 1006 BIOSes out for most boards at least. Running AGESA 1006 based BIOS myself. It's good I tell ya!

Unfortunately neither brand offered an ITX board, otherwise I'd have gladly gone with ASRock if they released theirs sooner. Unless it was the only option, I wouldn't have bought an Asus ITX board anyway. I can tolerate waiting, but knowing the release date would be appreciated.

Yeah I know that feeling. Also Asus/ASRock bioses are very fresh and don't think all their models have the 1006 bios yet either, only select X370 and B350 ones.

Damn, I was hoping little bit more Hynix based memories will be added, especially those most common 3200@CL16 :/

I'm sure you're fine. My RAM isn't on this list but it'll probably work ok. To my knowledge, the main benefit of this update is getting access to the T2 command rate. This is what my RAM needs in order to run stable.

As an FYI for all speeds above 2667. There is a setting in the bios called Geardown. It is enabled by default on all speeds above 2667. It overrides the command rate setting to 1T. Geardown needs to be disabled for command rate 2T to function as set. https://community.amd.com/community/gaming/blog/2017/05/25/community-update-4-lets-talk-dram

I got a Hynix 2933 kit which is not on the list and when I updated to the beta bios that includes 1.0.0.6. it worked with xmp right away. Before that bios it didn't work higher than 2133. -edit: also all stability issues were go, too.

Email today from Biostar, no beta BIOS, but expect release end of June to first part of July. That seems in-line with everyone else.
