MoKiChU, thank you very much! I've seen version 11.8.71.3630 on win-raid forum but there are a lot of problems and bad responses on it and i didn't dare to update from your previous version 11.8.70.3626, decided to wait update from you. Now just updated to 11.8.77.3664 on z270 Maximus IX Hero - everything is good and even slightly better than before!

Hello! Is there a way to roll back the firmware? after the update, the cpu is loaded to 100% in the Call of Duty War Zone game. maybe of course this is due to something else) I also updated all the latest drivers and BIOS. also in the game there was a patch) just interestingly you can somehow roll back)
cpu 8700k (using google translator)

Hi,

Like any firmware, it is very complicated to rollback.

However, it is unlikely that updating the Intel ME firmware could have caused your issue (I also use a Z370 motherboard (ROG Strix Z370-F) with this latest Intel ME firmware with CPU 8700K, and I also play CoD MW/WZ and I have no such problem).

Thanks for the answer and for everything you do for us! I will look for solutions to my problem; I may need to reinstall Windows; I have build 19041.207. Another question is, is there any rule about the order in which drivers are installed on a clean system?

No there is not really a rule apart from the fact that it is optimal to install the chipset drivers first. So, you can do it this way :

1) Chipset/Ethernet/MEI/SATA drivers (Intel) : [DRIVERS] Intel Chipset/Ethernet/MEI/SATA (1xx/2xx/3xx/4xx)
2) GPU drivers (NVIDIA DCH or AMD DCH)
3) Audio drivers (Realtek UAD) : [DRIVERS] Realtek Audio (UAD)
4) Others drivers & accessories drivers that you have

Thank! I will adhere to your recommendations.

can I install this on a maximus VIII hero alpha?
Also, does it matter which BIOS I am running?

Hi,

Yes, of course.

No, the BIOS you use doesn't matter.
