Since none of my AMD mainboards have a compatible BIOS with the new processors, I had to use the one provided by AMD, a Gigabyte B650 AORUS ELITE AX. I got the drivers and the latest BIOS half an hour before the NDA’s end, so I didn’t rush to post the review. Since I took ALL measurements from scratch, using the new BIOS and drivers (which I didn’t have because of a mix-up).

To monitor power consumption and every other important aspect of the system, I will use Powenetics v2.
