So just switched back to the previous BIOS on the R6E and all I can say is SIGH!!! I'm really tempted to just leave my machine vulnerable to SPECTRE and keep the performance. Honestly with my...

I saw the exact same things as you did after the patch. The higher Q depths are losing 30-50%. With realbench I ended up losing about 6% which I can live with, so it from a CPU standpoint, it...

There shouldn't be a bottleneck, unless you have the DIMM slot to PCH lanes and are using other PCH lanes. If you have only a 28 lane CPU then one of the DIMM slots won't work I think. But if you...

For the Spectre/Meltdown issues. If you don't know what it is, google it. :)

It should be noted what you have is a LIMITED Warranty. Which means the warranty is limited to things that would be ASUS' fault, like a DIMM slot going bad, a transistor dying.

The Intel issue is...

Jeez, how long has this taken??

There is a single setting in BIOS under ADVANCED. I don't remember the exact name of it but it is 1/2 down the list. It will show you all four of your PCI-e slots. You have to set the slot your...

There were three files at: http://www.station-drivers.com/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=352&func=fileinfo&id=3270&lang=en

I put it on my desktop. Opened up a CMD prompt with admin level. ...

I know you are being cute but simply put, this issue of having to do these DOS updates are going to happen for the whole x299 platform not just the ROG side of things.

Well I FINALLY figured it out. Holy hell. Turns out I'm clicking what I think is an executable file that pops up a Dos Screen and disappears so quickly that I can't even see that there was an...

I get that is what it is supposed to say, I'm just confused why the test is still reporting the incorrect version. The Spectremeltdown.exe is saying I'm protected but the Intel SA-00086 tool is...

Re-ran some benchmarks from prior to the patch to after the patch.
Cinebench saw a 3% drop. Real bench was about 6.8% drop. The real hit is to my SSDs.

Both my Intel 900p boot drive and RAID...

I guess this is my issue but i do not know HOW to do this. I downloaded it.. there was a bin executive file .. i executed it .. a window popped up with no error but still vulnerable. I'm seriously...

I'm not sure what you did differently than I did. I flashed the BIOS to 1102 and still am not safe. WHere did you get the MEI update? What were the steps that you did?

I'm obviously missing...

Here is my thing. On the security page for Asus it says those of us who have the x299 motherboards, all we need is to download the 1102 BIOS and boom all done. This apparently is not the case. On...

I did the Asus 1102 patch for the Asus Rampage 6 Extreme and even after the BIOS update, it shows STILL as vulnerable. :(

I get that there are drivers (software) and firmware (hardware). The BIOS addresses the firmware (hardware). Someone said here that there is needed another BIOS update to address the driver MEI...

I still don't understand all this, either way what I am understanding is the BIOS apparently puts in the microcode for the BIOS but we need another BIOS update to fix the MEI vulnerability so this is...

Well then I may go back to 1004 because honestly the performance hit is simply not worth it until everything is all fixed and even then... bleah.

I hope someone else can get this working cause I reflashed everything. My MEI is version 11.7.0.1057 I installed, it shows that in my Device Manager, but on this screen it shows 11.10.0.1287. At...

Went to Fernando's site to get the latest MEI update and still is showing my machine as vulnerable.

I'm thinking this is all a bunch of BS personally.

It is available on the win 7 and win 8 but not win 10 for some reason. :(

Welp two things:
1. The BIOS update in the description did NOT have "Fixes microcode" there so I'm not sure it does
2. The BIOS update pointed is no longer on the Asus website.

My guess is it...

Can I ask where you got the .inf from? Looking for a safe site.
