Quote Hello,

Please, if you are having Temperature or M.2 issues please update to the latest BIOS released today, March 06, 2018.


There is a proper procedure required for updating to this just released BIOS.
ie: requisite Bridge BIOS MUST first be flashed. Go to your motherboards BIOS Download pages to read more.


Humbly,
wardog

I just upgraded the system to the new P4.60 BIOS, again the transfer rates are far below normal, almost 5000MB less than in version 4.40 of the Taichi X370 BIOS. The latencies are also slightly higher, appreciably higher .. Is there any explanation?

Transfer rates and latencies of what? Can you please give more detail about what you are doing and how you are measuring these differences. Your use of the word "again" suggests there is an ongoing discussion about this - can you provide a link to it, please?

Question about flashing: If I'm already at 4.50 do I need to do the bridge flash also before flashing to the latest BIOS?

Without knowing just which motherboard you are referring to, I cannot answer.

I think I got that. Note I don't have this system up and running yet, I just have the motherboard and APU and have been researching for the build. Motherboard was bought a week ago from Newegg and has the AMD Ryzen Desktop 2000 Ready sticker on it.

In that case the short answer is "no". The longer answer is that the bridge BIOS was needed to prepare your board to take the BIOS that supports the 2000 series processors. Therefore, since it has that sticker it is already past the point of needing the bridge. Just update from 4.50 to 4.70.
