i will use this as a collection of test bioses/tools/info targeted towards Raptorlake + z69/790
NOTE for Z690: You must update ME on your Z690 to properly support raptorlake (if you are on dual bioses then you need to do this to both bioses)
1) d/l and install ME driver

2) update ME with ME Update Tool (I know there are newer versions but its not up on Asus official site yet so >= this version is fine)
https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/03CHIPSET/MEUpdateTool_16.1.25.1885_T.zip
3) update to Latest BIOS of your choice
Note 2 for Z690: i have some Z690s that are already LOW in battery so you are advised to use a new Battery during this upgrade.

Hi Hopper,
At higher frequencies it pays to adjust in smaller increments. These things can take time. Don't neglect IVR voltage. 👍

Yea. Still testing when I have the time. It’s slow going so far. Appreciate your help!

Hi ndssp,
Not as of yet. There is a test BIOS containing newer ME and lighting firmware, however (070).
