Where is the BGS option ? I cannot Find it, is this something that the crosshair only have ? I bought the Strix X370 awesome I'm running ar 3466Mhz at 4ghz, I didn't find the right spot for 3600ghz yet.

Finally a move forward to where higher speed Memory is worth more than bragging rights and wallet depletion.

Still I wish more effort went into a bigger L1 and a huge L3.

I don't have an ASUS board to answer that specifically. Have you updated to the latest BIOS with AGESA 1.0.0.6? The settings may not have the same name, but there are sure to be equivalent settings.

Your settings at 3466Mhz works like charm for me, I replicate the exact parameters on your graph, thank I had BF1 at 3200mhz on average of 115 - 120 now is 124 - 137 I got a ryzen 1700 3.9Ghz and the Strix x370 totally worth it.

Pretty impressive!
 
Is BSG the 'new and improved' version of the old AMD bank swizzle?

If I recall correctly, bank swizzle was a 'remapping' to minimize or reduce page faults. It should be rather simple to monitor effects/impact via task manager.

That said, some applications are page-faulting nightmares that are unlikely to benefit from any tweaking BUT it would seem to fit nicely with DDR4 addressing and AMD's push for 'unified memory' in the arch ...

unless you get caught in some type of 'remapping, page-faulting' loop not unlike the early days of NUMA multiple DIMM bank 'Hades'.
