BIOS upgraded, It seems stable, can confirm the new CPU microcode per Kaby Lake (84) as from the official Intel Microcode Revision table.
Asus still has not fixed the false boot with ErP e XMP enabled...

I can confirm the XMP / ErP-Problem. It is very bad that ASUS not fix this "Feature". With this Settings I have Problems with my PCI-Express-Soundcard.

Yes, Asus is really slow with bios-updates. My HP-laptop have had numerous bios-updates since Meltdown/Spectre went public and have had the latest Intel-fix since several weeks ago. Nice the Extreme is updated, but sort of illogical from a security standpoint, as it is the rarest of the Z-170 boards ...
