AMD has reportedly released new AGESA Microcode for Ryzen
AMD has reportedly released new AGESA Microcode for Ryzen, which is designed to improve RAM compatibility on their AM4 platform. This new code should soon be released in new UEFI/BIOS files for AM4 motherboard soon, though this will depend on how long it takes motherboard makers to add this new code to their next UEFI/BIOS releases.
As always, we recommend that users use best practices when updating their UEFI/BIOS, updating within your UEFI and not your OS using a memory stick with the new BIOS files. Your motherboard manufacturer will have guides on how to update your BIOS in the safest possible way.
AMD’s Generic Encapsulated Software Architecture (AGESA), is a protocol that is used on AMD64 mainboards to initialise the system. This software is responsible for the initialization of CPU cores, memory and HyperTransport controllers, which should mean that this new microcode will improve DDR4 memory support.
