I've never had memory training be forgotten with my AM4 nor LPDDR5-based laptops and NUCs. Is this a new thing with AM5 or something? Or just a certain brand of BIOSes?
Doesn’t affect soldered memory or lower speed memory (like DDR4). Many memory controllers fail to achieve good speeds and timings at all on 4 DDR5 DIMMs, and fall back to running DDR5 at 3600MHz instead.
I distinctly recall thinking my LPDDR5 NUCs were broken since they seemingly didn't boot the first time, until I recalled the training stuff. Took up to 15 minute on one of them. But neither has had any issues since, hence my question.
That being said, it's not hard to get a hold of a reasonably modern DDR5 EPYC board. Something like this: https://www.phoronix.com/review/gigabyte-mz33-ar1
Expensive though.
