Please check the product support page for your board and download Ai Suite 3.00.14 or 3.00.13 (if available).


If you have a Ryzen-based system:

KB4057144 fixed the problem caused by MS patch (KB4056891) so I installed the old ai suite iii and it works as it should.

EDITED:

This *DID* work for me too (Sabertooth X99). Removed the 3.00.10 version cos it didnt work anyway - Run Windows update and reinstall old Asus utils seems to work!

UPDATE:
After a few hours use and a few reboots, it all stopped working. No updated has been applied - just, as before, clicking AISuite did nothing. More worryingly - none of my fans appeared to be responsive to temperature changes.

So - have removed the Old AI Suite and reinstalled 3.00.10 (after Windows 1709) it seems to be working, although I've lost USB 3.1 stuff.

Clearly this is all still "Work in progress" - but its a pretty poor show for some "I2C" fan controllers

For some reason, I can't can't break 4400, neither manually attempting to OC via the BIOS or with AI Suite 3. I'm running Windows 10 Home 64bit on a 4770K, and every time I try to go over 4400, Windows crashes immediately after the login screen to a glitched BSoD. I always have to go back into the BIOS and set the values back to suit 4400, as seen in the photos below. I understand that AI Suite's 5-Way Optimization requires the computer to restart 2-3 times but I had to abort and reset the BIOS value again after it crashed and rebooted 6+ times. Anyone know how to get AI Suite past this hiccup or Windows 10 to allow OC'ing past 4400 in general.

When I used Windows 7 years ago, I was able to get a stable comfortable 4500 and could have pushed to 4600.

You have to increase CPU system agent I believe. +0.300 offset for the haswell series.

I am stopping using aisuite myself now, only used it for the fan thing, now i just do it in bios, easy peasy.

Guys it’s apparent from this thread and from what Asus has said that AI Suite 3.00.13 isn’t working and will negatively affect your system. Please don’t install it and then post about how it doesn’t work! We know it doesn’t work! Download 3.00.10, if you are lucky enough to have a board that supports it...

Why the sarcasm? It's a more recent stable version than the Beta from the forum thread that everyone links... and it works great. AI Suite 3 downloads are all the same across all motherboards, they just don't put the download available for older boards because they want people to think they have to buy new. All older motherboards could have updated Utilities and drivers for windows 10. MSI does it.

I wasn't being sarcastic. I was serious.

maximus hero VII (z97) here.

AI SUITE 3 Beta, or the "lastest" version AISuite3_3.00.13_DIP5_1.05.13 doesnt install if totaly remove my MB Ai suite 3 version ( V10102) +cleaner (which so far doesnt seem to do sh#t.. ) the install just pop a bit in the task manage then disapear ( i have a bunch of error already posted in this topic )

For beeing able to install the beta or the "lastest" version ( coming from another MB ) i have to FIRST have installed my MB ai suite 3 version.

The problem now, despite everything ""working"" is that the software now doesnt correctly check the temperature anymore ( didnt had that issue before the win 10 intel security thing update )
So during CPU load, the temperature isnt right at all ( while strangely its accurate from 30° to like 40°-ish ) so the fan profile isnt correctly applied..

This is the latest I have heard regarding my ticket:

============================
At this time, ASUS and Microsoft are already working together to resolve the issue with the 1709 Fall Creators update. A lot of our hardware and software, even drivers are having issues with this recent update. Microsoft already admitted that this issue came from their end and we at ASUS are working as well to have a complete resolution for this issue. Microsoft is planning to release another update that will resolve the cases through Windows Update or a small downloadable patch to fix the issue with the 1709 Falls Creator. We don't have the definitive time of the update release and I do apologize for the inconvenience. Please bear with us.
=============================

I have to say I am not surprised. At this point, I expect there will probably have to be a BIOS update as well before this problem is finally resolved. Maybe it's a good thing it happened, in a way. ASUS was not doing any maintenance on the AI Suite on my board. Many modules, such as DipAway, never did work right, and ASUS never fixed them despite multiple tickets logged from my end. Now they'll have to fix some of that stuff. I had pretty much disabled everything except fan control and USB Boost/UASP.

Edit: I notice that every response I get from ASUS refers to Windows 10 updates. I am still using Windows 8.1. I did not want 10 precisely because I didn't want to be forced to accept MS updates willy-nilly. But this one caught me out. Now I'm nervous. I just did a search of of all the KB numbers from my January updates, and I can't tell which one of them is causing the problem. I wouldn't know which one to uninstall if I went that route. I've asked ASUS for clarification. I'll post here if they tell me anything useful.
