MSI releases AMD AGESA 1.2.0.3e BIOS: officially supports 4 x 64GB sticks, up to 256GB RAM

Anthony Garreffa | Jun 16, 2025 1:11 AM CDT

MSI has officially released its new BIOS for multiple of its 800-series AM5 motherboards, supporting up to 256GB of RAM using 4 x 64GB DIMMs.

MSI releases AMD AGESA 1.2.0.3e BIOS: officially supports 4 x 64GB sticks, up to 256GB RAM

In a press release posted to its website, the company explains the new AGESA Combo PI-1.2.0.3e BIOS, with memory optimizations included to help support 4 x 64GB DIMMs for up to 256GB of system RAM. The new AGESA Combo PI-1.2.0.3e BIOS will support all AM5 motherboards, starting from the 600 series up to 800 series, meaning these RAM optimizations are available even for the A620 series mobos.

On some (not all) motherboards, you can run 4 x 64GB DIMMs in MSI's motherboards with the new BIOS update, and run the system with more stability than before. MSI goes as far as saying that the DDR5 memory can be overclocked to 6000MT/s or even 6400MT/s using large-capacity DRAM kits using Micron, SK hynix, or Samsung memory... all boasting up to 256GB capacities at those 6000-6400MT/s speeds.

MSI unveils its first neutered motherboard intended for safety

Jak Connor | May 27, 2025 11:10 AM CDT

There were many new and interesting products on show at Computex 2025, but one that may have slipped under your radar was MSI's new neutered motherboards, designed to reduce injuries.

MSI unveils its first neutered motherboard intended for safety

MSI had many new products on display at its booth at Computex, and one that caught Tom's Hardware's keen eye was the new flat-design motherboards, which feature what MSI calls a "PinSafe Design." In a nutshell, these new boards have had their spiky pins flattened, creating a smoother surface that is starkly different from the typical motherboard. MSI says this new design is intended to prevent PC builders from being injured throughout the building process, while also having performance improvements such as greater system stability and ESD protection.

Unfortunately, MSI didn't provide any numbers to back up these claims, so we will just have to take the manufacturer's word for it until independent testing is conducted. Until then, the neutered motherboards will, at the very least, mean less dust is accumulated in clumps on the surface of the board, along with an improvement in being able to move the board around throughout the building process. Both of these are positives.

ASUS expands its BTF hidden cable ecosystem at Computex 2025 with new mobos and graphics cards

Chris Szewczyk | May 22, 2025 5:45 AM CDT

ASUS has expanded its BTF hidden cable ecosystem at Computex 2025 with new motherboards and graphics cards. What's most interesting is the reveal of a detachable power connector which adds a great deal of flexibility for users attracted to the idea of invisible cable builds.

ASUS expands its BTF hidden cable ecosystem at Computex 2025 with new mobos and graphics cards

BTF is ASUS' backside connector ecosystem. Like GIGABYTE's Stealth and MSI's Project Zero, the idea is to move the various power connectors, case headers and SATA ports to the back of the motherboard, giving builds a beautifully clean look.

ASUS' approach has always been a bit different. There's one thing that usually stands out like a sore thumb on other manufacturer's backside connector products, and that's the GPU power cable. ASUS originally went a step further when it introduced its own motherboard mounted GC-HPWR connector which eliminated the need for an external power cable. The downside was that users were locked into using ASUS BTF products.

GIGABYTE's new DriverBIOS feature unleashed on its refreshed AORUS ICE mobos at Computex 2025

Chris Szewczyk | May 20, 2025 6:04 AM CDT

GIGABYTE has introduced a very user-friendly new feature to a selection of its refreshed AORUS ICE motherboards at Computex 2025. The DriverBIOS feature of the new boards features an integrated WIFI driver directly into the BIOS that eliminates a time-consuming hassle if Windows does not install a driver upon completing a fresh Windows installation.

GIGABYTE's new DriverBIOS feature unleashed on its refreshed AORUS ICE mobos at Computex 2025

Obviously, you need access to the internet to download a driver, yet you often need a driver to access the internet. That's a chicken and egg scenario that GIGABYTE just made a lot less relevant.

The driver makes use of Microsoft's WPBT (Windows Platform Binary Table), which is a feature that allows systems to run executable programs directly from a UEFI BIOS. The idea is that users are able to access the internet from the first boot, without having to manually install a driver.

COLORFUL intros 'X3D Gaming Mode' for improved gaming performance on Ryzen X3D CPUs

COLORFUL's new X3D Gaming Mode can be used for non-X3D processors as well, but it will help X3D processors massively as the second CCD is disabled, latency is reduced, so that the single CCD with the additional 3D V-Cache can enjoy higher performance.

In a new post on Weibo, COLORFUL showed off its new X3D Gaming Mode inside of its updated BIOS and that when enabled, it turns off the SMT (Simultaneous Multi-Threading) on the Ryzen CPU. Additionally, if you're running an AMD Ryzen CPU with one or two CCDs (higher-end Ryzen processors have two CCDs) then it will disable one of them and transfer the gaming workloads to a single CCD for optimal performance.
