I just updated and so far it's fine.
Memory voltage bug from last bios is still there (setting 1.35v dram voltage gives me 1.440v, I put it to 1.36 to get 1.36v which is okay for me).

I also updated. Everything seems OK.

Hey im curious on this. How do you check ram voltage when its running? HWinfo? Because XMP doesnt work on mine so I manually set 3200mhz at 1.35v.

The voltage readout in the UEFI says 1.440v when booting with 1.3530v or 1.344v for 1.3596v.
I use the XMP profile of my corsair lpx 3000 and it sets the voltage to 1.3530 automatically which I set 2 steps higher manually to get 1.36v.

Made a video on the issue. Sorry for the extreme blur, my phone is crap.

ah i see it. Did you try setting it manually like the cas latency etc without using xmp? I'm currently doing that with my G.skill ram and it seem to work alright and stays at 1.344-1.3560(something like that) volts.

Mine boots up the same.

Although one time mine failed to flash (I use the biosflashback button, wont start gets stuck at rog screen) and I just redownload and try it again then it work(probably corrupted during download or something?).
