Some important news for intel 600 series board owners ASRock has asked me to share with you all on the forums  ASRock Releases New BIOS Supporting Intel Next-Gen Desktop Processors for its Intel 600 Series Motherboards  ASRock has announced BIOS updates for its Intel 600 series motherboards to support the soon-released Intel desktop processors. ASRock has been completely dedicated to EZ update/setting. As the first generation of LGA1700 socket motherboards, most of ASRock Intel 600 series motherboards are equipped with BIOS flashback button that allow users to update BIOS with USB Flash Drive easily. Furthermore, ASRock add Auto Driver Installer(ADI) to the newest BIOS of all Intel 600 series motherboards. ADI ensures the ability of Ethernet connection and provides a convenient way to install all drivers needed without any annoying application needed in your OS. That is to say, no need to worry about not having the CD ROM or support CD, you could set the system up in the blink of an eye. The latest BIOS update will be available to download from our website or simply updated through ASRock APP Shop.

May I ask a silly and possibly ignorant question... Just built a new PC with the H670 PG Riptide motherboard but does not turn on. It says 6.01 on the sticker for BIOS. Is the outdated BIOS the reason why nothing is turning on? (nothing except the BIOS flbk button) If this is not the place to ask this, I apologize in advance. |

I just bought an ASRock Z690 STEEL LEGEND WIFI 6E/D5 with an Intel 13700k CPU. I do not have a 12th CPU... is this a problem for using this motherboard with the 13th gen CPU out of the box? I.E. how do I update the bios, will the 13th gen CPU at least boot to some bios update screen option? Thanks! |

| I went to do a build with the same cpu. Won?™t post, it sure to flash bios without it posting. Frustrating, I?™m probably just old and don?™t know how to do something. Started my return to Newegg, I?™ll follow through with return unless I hear some quick fix. |

To answer the above, BIOS Flashback is the way to go. Read the associated ASRock doc of your motherboard having BIOS Flashbackfunctionality It worked for me with a clean USB stick with latest BIOS 13.03, and pressing the bios flasback button. Was not able to POST before (normal I had forgottent to update the BIOS), POSTED nicely after the BIOS flashback. Now I got 1 question with this latest (and only valid as of now) BIOS, with my 13600K checking with XTU: Standard 13600K I understand is: PCore 3.5Ghz with Boost 5.1Ghz ECore 2.6Ghz with Boost 3.9Ghz Without having changed anything yet in the BIOS beside activated the RAM XMP (no overclocking done by me) my "issue" is that looking at XTU without doing anything but being logged in Windows 10 (no user program running, task manager showing 4% CPU used overall), I get: PCore at often 5.11 and even above going to 5.23Ghz ECore always at 3.91 NEVER going down to 2.6Ghz I would expect being able to go down to the basic frequencies for ECore at least as PCore is rarely going to 3.9Ghz but still varies. 1- Are my measurement conditions wrong ? 2- Is the BIOS 13.03 overclocking slightly by default and/or preventing base frequencies to be set ? In case of 2 any hint as to BIOS config to allow base ECore frequencies to be "activated" ? ------------- Intel i5 13600K ASRock Z690 PG Velocita |

Hi, just wanted to ask, yesterday a new bios has been released for Z690 Steel Legend/D5 with number 9.03, the only change in description is "Update Intel microcode.", there is any information related to that microcode, like improvements or security patches that could impact performance? Thanks in advance for the answer. |

Just about to start my first build! Is there a tutorial out there how to flash the bios on z690 steel legend wifi 6e? I read that I should flash the bios prior to cpu install. Will I have to flash the bios on the asrock steel legend before installing the cpu? From what I gather, all you need to accomplish that, is power to the motherboard, and a freshly formatted fat32 usb stick with the latest version of asrock bios uploaded to it, and rename the file(cant remember off the top of my head.), insert usb to proper usb port, and press the bios flashback button until the led lights up(and continue to blink until it is completed)? At which point you shut of and unplug the usb? How do you shut it off at that point? just flip the switch on the psu, then begin building? I'm sorry for all the questions, just nervous and don't want to mess it up! Thanks! The only instructions I could find involved having a monitor and everything set up. Whats the EASIEST way to bios flash this particular mobo? I've seen in some build videos that people sometimes set up certain components together on a test bench prior to building in the case. Is it necessary with all new components, and whats the best way to accomplish this as a first timer. ------------- Just leanring! |

| I'm a proud owner of the AsRock z690 Extreme. It's so great to have free update for such a cheap but powerful motherboard. I also thank Intel for extending the life of the z690 chipset. At last, they have understood that having to change motherboard to use their newest processors isa serious obstable, and many people just don't want to upgrade, even if they have the money, because they fear that their components won't work correctly anymore without reinstalling Windows. |

Yep! Double check the website for new BIOS versions for your MOBO. For my microATX Phantom Lightning/D4, my BIOS was like six versions behind. ------------- -Stephen For when you think you have enough, add some more |
