Hi.

I have Acer Aspire 3 A315-23 AMD CPU/GPU with BIOS version 1.21 and Windows 11 x64, the GPU driver Radeon Adrenaline is the latest 24.9.1.

Are there will be new BIOS versions with new features or visible changable features, without accesing them from key combination. One feature that i can't turn on is the Resizable Bar or SAM, there is no option available even in advanced tab menu. Only the Above 4GB MMIO is there. In GPU-z shows BAR0-256MB (which is the minimum) and no Above 4GB MMIO enabled wich is not true because i've enabled it in the BIOS. I know it's not the driver because before i had Windows 10 installed and the chipset and gpu drivers were from the acer site secificaly for my laptop.

    Hi, you already have the latest version BIOS 1.21 from 2022/11/17. AFAIK no BIOS updates are planned. AMD's Smart Access Memory (SAM) technology is available only in DELL PCs not Acer BIOS.
