Epyc ES series on Huananzhi H12D 8D

[mafon]

Hi everyone!
I've bought Huananzhi H12D 8D motherboard. It has SP3 socket and works with EPYC 7002. Unfortunatelly, it does not start with EPYC 7742 ES. I am a newibe and don't want to overclock, I just want to start motherboard with ES series processor.
What should I do?
Thanks.

buy other motherboard.
Rome ES need BIOS with old AGESA.

RolloZ170, are you sure this motherboard has new AGESA?
It hurts me when I hear "buy other" because to make jne server, I have bought 3 motherboards (H11DSI, H11SSL-i, Huananji) and 3 processors (2 EPYC 7742ES and one 7532). And now I need to buy other stuff...
One EPYC does not work (seller send me bad one) and what about ES series... To start them I need to update BIOS and update needs non-ES processor.

yes, only very early motherboards before launch of Rome can have old AGESA.
you need new AGESA for retail EPYC to work properly.

i am talkng about ES, not QS.

not only about overclock, just to get them working at first.

Did anyone figure out the issue with the ES cpus? Is there a fiX?
Thank you

BIOS on this motherboard is too new, it can't boot after replacing microcode.
