Can you update this post to tell me if they fixed it (later)?

Also if the issue isn’t fixed in the bois update 1.1.1 then can they fix it in the future.

Gear mode 1/2 is still an outstanding issue as reported by other owners of R12's.

There's no information available on a BIOS update/fix for this issue.

Any updates for the R12, including BIOS updates, will always be posted on the drivers download page: R12 drivers page 

If you sort it by released newest the latest updates will be displayed first. I found that the easiest way to check for updates.

Currently the latest updates were posted June 17, 2021 (2 days ago) with an update for AWCC.

Wait I don’t get it some people said that 1.1.1 bois update already fixed the issue https://www.reddit.com/r/Alienware/comments/nfb6zz/massive_improvements_after_latest_aurora_r12/

im honestly confused.

There were 2 issues with the R12:

1. Slow RAM access speeds. (Memory read/write speeds)

2. Inability to select between gear 1/2 mode. (higher than anticipated memory latency)

#1 has been addressed with the BIOS update.

#2 has not been addressed yet and there's only Gear 2 mode available.

#1 and #2 are 2 different issues. Read/Write speeds and latency are 2 different things.

#1 has been addressed with the BIOS update.

Negative ghost rider, don't spread incorrect information..   There is still a major RAM latency issue - so the RAM issue is definitely not fixed

That is caused by item #2. The read/write speeds have been addressed with the bios update.

See this report by an R12 owner with the latest bios: R12 read/write speeds 

Yep r12 owner here and the ram latency is still crazy high. Still no word on a fix. It’s been a while since the latest update so who knows. 

They released a new bois update 1.1.2

what improvement in ram??
