Did you flash v1.80 through Windows instead of instant flash? Because I did it with Windows the first time. I just decided I wanted to flash it again with instant flash on a usb stick and it's fine. Might explain why we had issues.

Do NOT flash through Windows, too many failures have been reported. This is with all brands of product. |

I usually never do this. I couldn't find my USB stick at the time and was getting impatient. Never plan on doing that again. I still don't think that was the issue considering the guy above me had the same issue and he flashed it via instant flash. I'm thinking maybe ASRock snuck in a fix a few days later on their 1.80 download. |

I just finished building a new system based on the Z390 Taichi with an i5 9600k and am using a Samsung 970EVO NVMe SSD as my boot drive in M.2 #1. The MOBO had BIOS v1.30 installed which seems pretty old to me, so I was thinking of upgrading the BIOS to the latest to take advantage of any fixes or new feature support. Should I upgrade to 1.80 or hold off?

It seems to be fixed. Just make sure you load the BIOS to a USB device and use instant flash. My NVME card has much better performance in 1.80 than 1.60 now. If you have issues you can always downgrade. I'd also recommend installing your m.2 NVME in your 3rd M.2 slot under the heatsink. NVME's tend to get hot and that's what that's there for. Also make sure you install the Samsung NVME drivers to further improve performance!

Forgot to mention Samsung Magician. Install it to make sure your M.2 is in the latest firmware.

Away from home working abroad this week but I'm fairly certain that when I did the re-install of w10 last week I did d/l a new copy of 1.80. All the other suggestions are also in play. I'll re-download and try again when I get home. |
