desperate because of X299 chipset architecture
Hey there,
Testerd the Gaming 9 with F6F, but still without luck setting up raid0 array. I managed to create it, but than it vanished. And it was only RSTe array, not VROC array. VROC is available on F6D version, but is not present on F6F.
Okay, so after a lot of testing. VROC isn't working. It doesn't see Intel 750 NVMe drives. RSTe does work like charm, though, there's no real reason to use RST/e, when there's VROC, right? That's terrible.
I've updated to F6F, and at first I still had the issue with the core and mesh multipliers going to default values after waking from sleep. Then I decided to try removing the CMOS battery with the power cord unplugged for several minutes, then putting the battery back in. That fixed it. It's now behaving very stable with F6F.
So, those having weird issues with core and mesh multipliers after waking from sleep might want to try unplugging the power cord and removing the CMOS battery to see if that helps.
Hmmm, I'm still having the core and mesh multipliers reset to stock defaults on wake from S3 on F6F, and I did clear the CMOS battery.
Any other settings you changed from default? I saw there is a setting called something like "S3 Mode - [Enabled|Disabled]" option someplace in the BIOS menu. It defaults to Disabled. Did you change that?
No, I didn't change that at all. I've pretty much got mine setup just like the Gaming 9 basic overclocking video that mdkpt just posted. I did have one instance where my system crashed while trying to maximize my overclock, and the system booted back to revision F6E, likely because it copied it over from the backup dual BIOS. I flashed it back to F6F. It's still keeping the core and mesh multipliers to what I have set (48 and 32) after wake from sleep.
VROC doesn't work at all [see my photos], system won't see the drives in VROC menu
EZ raid works only when VROC is disabled
EZ raid works only with RST Premium enabled
VROC doesn't go well with RST Premium enabled [freezes BiOS]
System won't boot up/is fully inaccessible and only CLEAR CMOS works, when I try to enable secure boot, thus secure boot is totally unusable on this platform [X299 Gaming 9]
EZ raid freezes with disks out of the RST control [talking only about PCi-e NVMe drives, Intel 750 1.2 TB at this case]. Disks must be RSTe controller, for EZ raid NOT to freeze
That should be for now
There, I have two new infos. The VROC most likely work, though, I have no way to test. Here's why.
VROC is a part of Intel Rapid Storage Technology enterprise. [iRSTe]. Which makes it impossible to run w/o RSTe enabled. That's okay, that works. But also, VROC needs Intel VMD [Volume Management Device], which after enabling in UEFi, reveals the VROC monitoring menu [one can't create raid array in here, and here goes nothing]. So, I think that since UEFi/Secure Boot and all of the shit is required to run many Intel prop. technologies + also read here, that
C-2. UEFI RAID Configuration Step 1: In BIOS Setup, go to BIOS and set CSM Support to Disabled (Figure 6). Save the changes and exit BIOS Setup.
However, Gigabyte told us that VROC depends on Intel's RSTe driver, which is software you run on top of Windows.
Here I got to a point, where I wanted iRSTe + Intel VMD + CSM Disabled and work together. And that's where the problem is. This combination doesn't work to [only?] me. It freezes the UEFi/BiOS, and PC, and won't allow it to boot up. With all the BiOSes available tested.
Is any of You using this combination and is it working for You? Matt, can You fix this somehow? I know it's kind of hard to get 2 Intel 750 SSD drives to test it out, but I'm afraid there's no other way .

I will try to test i have 2 750 but they use the U2 conection i do have on the dual Xeon machine will try to test

That would help me a lot with my headache. Spent already two days with this issue. Erm, VROC does work with 7900X and so? You need Skylake-X, not Xeon Skylake-X? [they're not gonna make Xeons afaik, that's why they made i9?].
And one more very important thing! Please do create a profile of Your UEFi/BiOS and save it to external FAT32 formatted flash disk. Turning on VMD + turning off CSM + enabling RSTe in Perpipherals may result in Your need to CLEAR CMOS. After You CLEAR CMOS, You can load Your current profile and voila, You're good to go.

One important note about using U.2 to M.2 adapters. Only one of the M.2 slots on the motherboard routes to CPU PCIe lanes, the middle one labeled M2M_32G. I believe it shares lanes with the second PCIe slot, labeled PCIEX4_1. The other two M.2 slots route through the chipset.
For VROC you want all lanes going to the CPU, not through the chipset. That means only using the middle M.2 slot and all other drives going through PCIe slots (and not PCIEX4_1 if you're using the middle M.2 slot).

Dear earlyadopter
You're an effing genius! So, when I use the PCi-e to M.2 adapter, and there I use M.2 to U.2 adapter, I should be golden?
Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!
And one more question. Aren't all capable of VROC [m.2], only the middle one requires VROC key to work in VROC? [that's what I understood from the manual]

Freezes BIOS for me too. I'll pass it onto the BIOS guys.

New BIOS for Gaming 9/3 on the OP. Also added a list of 'open items' to post #3 so you guys have a quick reference for items we are working on.
Hey there Matt. Well, hope this helps. Btw. my PC is acting weird. Every second start it turns off instantly, than it works. I turn off the PC, than I turn it on and it turns off instantly. Another turn on works like a charm.
Another thingie is, that whenever I put electricity to my PC and I have LED function off, all of the LEDs are turned on for a brief moment and than turned off. Is this a proper behavior?
And one more, the flash of BiOS/UEFi. What's the difference between fast and intact. Fast does wipe settings, intact keeps them? It's nowhere in manual. Tbh, almost nothing that is interesting is described in manual :/
Hmm, sometimes I have seen this when training memory... Are you using XMP? You may want to try disabeling XMP and seeing if the problem goes away. If it does try manually setting the RAM.
If I unplug/replug the 24 pin connector all my LED's turn on for a second as well.
Intact copies the Intel ME, Fast does not. Either way the settings should be wiped. I'll ask if I can get an explanation of what the advantages/disadvantages of not flashing the ME is.

Thank You Matt! You're being very helpful [really].
I use default settings on memory, so XMP is disabled, I guess. I will rebuild my system this week [got GTX 1080 Ti WaterForce Xtreme today from Germany ] and will use the BeQuiet! SilentLoop 360 in order to free the PCi-e ports, so I'll try it everything, with new BiOS.
P.S.: I'm changing Asus ROG 1080Ti OC that I'm overly happy with [clock, PCB, power, looks, RGB, etc.], just because of that damn 5mm, that are covering my 3rd PCi-e port. The options were EVGA Hybrid and GA WaterForce Xtreme. I hope GA won't fail :/
