Recently (2014/05/08) a newer version of the firmware update was released.

Name: OC Panel
Update file: ROG_OC_Panel_FW_v1.0.3.2 & Firmware_0402_HEX
direct link: http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/accessory/ROG_OC_Station/0402FW_and_tool.zip

Follow all steps mentioned previously and update is not a problem.

Why does Asus not update main page so we can see these updates?

Seems the same as all my previous Mobos for the past 14 years where after a shot period they stop updating things and support falls away.

Hello

I bought a Maximus V Extreme NOS in February 2021. I choose this card to build a quad Cross-Fire of Radeons. It took me some weeks to discover why this card does not boot without a CLEAR-CMOS just before. Cause was LN2_MODE jumper positioned to ON in place of OFF 😉

As all people I read in manual that OC Key firmware can be upgraded.
So started Holy Grail quest for another weeks.

First I tested OC Key as is. Nice even if I do not find many informations about my Radeons.
I read in this thread that some people got problem with USB keyboard.
I must admit my keyboard was assigned automatiquely to OC Key.
Is because it’s an IBM Model M keyboard connected thru a mini-DIN plug ?

Anyway my OC Key is version 1.0.0.5. If this final version so I have no more to do ?

Trying to develop the procedure:
- Take care to disable xHCI.
- Take care to be admin.
- Take care to stop antivir, firewall and so background services.
- Updater version = 1.0.3.2
- FW version = 0.4.0.2
- File selectable by updater is ONLY *.H00 so no error possible ?

Any advices welcome !

Same problem here. I let it sit for 30 minutes but it was pretty clear it crashed. Now I get no display on the panel at all. The firmware updater still detects the unit, and it will get stuck at different spots (highest it's gone is Adr:034).

Bricked? Any workaround? I removed the unit from power for a week and tried again, no luck.

same problem here

Start again from the beginning. I would download the firmware file again it may be corrupted.

Thanks HiVizMan!

Do you have any info about what is new/fixed in this release? Any chance that it fixes the "0 RPM" issue?

Best regards,

Bogdan

Sorry mate I do not know there was no release notes available, what I can do is ask on Monday.

The WinZip firmware archive contains three hex files, *.H00 *.H01 and *.H02. The firmware update only selects the *.H00 file. Any idea what the other two files are for?
