I have an experimental bios mod for this board that forces the PCIe BAR from 256MBs to 2048MBs, I'm curious of the following and need testers:
1.) Does this help performance? Is it similar to or perhaps even recognized as "AMD SAM support?" This isn't technically a resizable BAR, but it is a much larger one, and I'm curious if it's what AMD is doing behind the marketing talk.
2.) How do NVIDIA cards handle this? Do they work? Do they benefit?
EDIT: After a brief test I can say nvidia cards work with this, benefit is... uncertain as of now. Need benches.
Testers wanted. Please post if you can help, and I'll provide binaries via PM.
If you have another Z390 ASRock board, I may be able to port this function as well.
Contact me in that event as well.
Reason I am posting this here is: I used to bios mod here for this board to remove the ME, so I'm hoping some of those users are still floating around here.
