   Sounds like BIOS bug.  You should contact AsRock tech support for that.
In the mean time, you can stay at 5.10 as NDRE28 suggested.

	Hi! I'd downgrade the BIOS version to the one that worked well (v5.10). Sometimes, new BIOS versions are worst, in some areas, than the old ones.

	Hello, I am experiencing an issue with the PCIe bifurcation (PCIe x16 switch) feature after updating the BIOS beyond version 5.10. My current configuration is as follows: PCIe Slot 1: GPU installed. PCIe Slot 3: Uses a PCIe-to-U.2 converter to support two NVMe U.2 SSDs. PCIe Slots 2, 4, and 5: Each occupied by an SSD. M.2_M1 Port: NVMe SSD installed. With BIOS version 5.10 and earlier (including 4.xx), all SSDs are recognized correctly using PCIe bifurcation in an x8/x4/x4 configuration. However, in BIOS versions 8.xx and 10.xx: When PCIe bifurcation (PCIe x16 switch) is enabled, the NVMe SSD in PCIe Slot 4 is not recognized. When I disable PCIe bifurcation (by setting it to x16 mode), the NVMe SSD in PCIe Slot 4 is recognized, but the two U.2 SSDs in PCIe Slot 3 (via the PCIe-to-U.2 converter) are not recognized. This issue does not occur in BIOS 5.10 and earlier.Any idea?
