Where to get beta BIOS for Asus boards - if not here? I'm a bit surprised. I joined this forum assuming it would be the #1 source for Asus mobo related information and updates. I'm realizing though that various beta BIOS are posted on other forums, surprisingly it seems from Asus staff. I'm currently on 1003 which was finally posted officially, after it was posted already weeks earlier by some Asus staff on other places. Now, it seems again there are other beta versions posted for Z690 - again not here on Asus own hardware forum. I apologize, if I miss or oversaw something. Otherwise, would it be maybe possible that Asus employees post their betas here as well? 🙂

Here ya' go. This is where the Asus guys hang out, https://www.overclock.net/threads/official-asus-strix-maximus-z690-owners-thread.1794802/

Look for posts by Shamino1978, he is an Asus bios engineer working on the z690 boards. There are multiple Asus employees there, some of the same employees that you'll find intermittently posting here.

The builds are beta, so beta feedback is likely best left within the confines groups of those who wish to participate. Especially given as it stands they're posted fairly frequently.

Not only that, but the reason for the test builds vary. Some will only favour users looking for extreme OC tweaks or very specific changes for debugging purposes. So it depends where the user's original post was made.

Long story short, just because there's a new test build doesn't mean you need to update to it.

Have adapted the post from OCN recently.

can you tell me if there is a beta of the PRIME-Z690-P-WIFI-D4 bios ? and where to find it?

If there is one, it's most likely on OCN. But as Scone mentioned being beta doesn't mean it's better than what you have so be careful about looking for betas just for the sake of them being beta.
