New z690 hero (1304 Bios)

[Juice2643]

Has anyone else tried to update to the newest 1304 bios on Z690 hero?
When I try to ez flash it keeps having trouble reading the file for some reason.

Maybe re-download it from this site and try again as it worked fine on mine

Weird , I re-downloaded and it read the file this time.
Hope this bios is better, I've heard good things.

This BIOS makes things worse for me when XMP in engaged, instant BSOD on startup, gone back to the previous BIOS with 4 X 16 sticks of Corsair Vengeance DDR5 4800 XMP 1 MODE 2 stable at 4600mhz

I went back to 1003 , only thing that works for me is XMP1 then under RAM timings set MODE to MODE 2, I am stable at 4600 if I go to 4800 it is a BSOD on tartup

Maybe I do not understand your question. But if it is about going back from 1304 to 1003, you need to have enabled "reverse" in BIOS, and then just flash 1003.
