Hmm, i actually never updated the firmware for the HDMI as it said i already have 1.36, but looking at their own PDF their picture displays the same thing.. look here on step 2: http://asrock.pc.cdn.bitgravity.com/TSD/TheGuildofsupporting4kx2k@60Hz.pdf
Should i update even though the tool tells me i have 1.36? |

I don't think so, my board came with 1.24 I think and the utility updated me to 1.36 which is the latest on asrock's page for our board if you board already came with 1.36 just means it's newer stock than when I bought my board |

Questions for the owners of the Z170 Gaming-ITX/ac board.
Help me out here guys, where do you see in the specs support for HDMI 2.0? Or is that inferred from the 4K x 2K (4096x2160) @ 60Hz spec for the HDMI2 output? You are all aware that the HDMI1 output is rated for 4K x 2K (4096x2160) @ 24Hz / (3840x2160) @ 30Hz, not the same as the HDMI2 output? For those with flickering on the TV image, have you tried disabling any of the C State CPU power saving options? Such as, not using Package C State support, and disabling C6 or C3? You are aware that dual channel memory is required for support of 4K x 2K @60Hz? Have you tried the Intel Graphics driver version 15.40.14.4352, that claims to fix flickering with Skylake processor graphics? Available here: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25620/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-1-10-15-40-6th-Gen-?v=t There are also several Beta graphics drivers available from Intel. They may not directly address the flickering issue, I'm just giving you others to try. This is the latest one, there are links to two others on this page: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25848/Intel-Beta-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-1-10-15-40- I also found this driver, which seems to be the same version as the 4380 Beta driver, but is not labeled as a Beta.  Here it is:https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25818/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-1-10-15-40- |

you typed all that up and posted different links but couldn't check that HDMI 1.4 is capped at 30Hz for 4K and only HDMI 2.0 can do 4K@60Hz? yes, it's inferred from the 4k@60Hz support claimed on all marketing materials for this board, the manual and the spec listing on asrock's website Also, as it is clearly stated in the manual, I think all of us that are complaining are aware that there is a difference in which port should be 2.0 enabled and that you have to use the correct one for 4K@60Hz Asrock has just been too non-responsive on this issue that has been around for months. |

Hey ocFTW, the BIOS version 2.10 seems to have fixed issues for me.
It just took ASRock 6 months to make the product work as advised...
