ROG STRIX H270I gaming motherboard's new 1001 bios is wonky?

Here is my story:
Around new year's time i noticed, my pc reboots 1-2 times a day randomly. Was rock solid before.
I blamed windows and its updates as usual.
Did every suggested fix / settings i found online, nothing worked. (stress test ok, temps ok)
(after turning off auto restart to look for a blue screen, turns out pc just hanging / freezing, no dump, no event log, not a trace of any error)
Reinstalled windows, still freezing
Installed Linux from scratch, still freezing
Removed every OS, and was just hanging around the bios, optimizing stuff, and i still got multiple freezes just being there.
Then i remembered i updated bios around the time this started. I rolled it back to 0809 and no freeze yet (24h, need more days to fully test)
Just wanted to write this down, maybe someone benefits from it.
Thanks.

Latest BIOS is 3401 not 1001. After update you should load Setup Defaults.

Can you point me towards the direction of 3401 bios for the ROG STRIX H270I gaming motherboard? I am only seeing 1001 as the newest.
Load defaults is a given after every bios change, did not help.
