Power consumption is increased 2-3W at idle and more at load, not sure why. I am sure i have matched bios settings. 
Spectre protection confirmed active.



I only see v2.0 beta for Z77 ITX. Did you find downloads on their website's support page?

Anyone tried out the latest 2.00 Beta released on 5/30/2018 for older motherboards? I'm looking at Z77.

Did you updated from a 2.0 bios or a 3.x bios?

I have the same board with the 2.02C bios which has a load line calibration (LLC) option for overclock. Does the 3.40 bios has this option?

Anyway, I updated the intel microcode of my 2.02C bios version with UBU, but it's just to know.

Thanks.

I was on latest stable BIOS, 3.30.
3.40 beta above does have have "CPU Load-Line Calibration" under OC Tweaker and I think 3.30 had it too.
