Supposed to be a new microcode with this, but looks the same to me after flashing the bios. 5E. ??

Yep, 5E inbios for 50654 and 12C for 50657.

Right now the best performer is MC60 and the safest is MC64. MC65 is not booting OS's on Asus Boards. I only know one mate reporting MC65 proper boot on a MSI board.

They also updated the Raid Firmwares to 17.7 and 6.2 and internal MEI to 11.12.0.1622.

My bios ME is still 11.12.0.1558.

The LED EC1 FW was updated to ...0202.

U have to update the mei module to 11.12.0.1622 but inbios mei in 0504 is 11.12.0.1622. So u need the specific mei module update files which aren't available at Asus Encore page, but if u wish I can link them to you.

This 11.12.0.1622 version is for new cascade lake x, but if u have a 7xxx or 9xxx cpu, ud better update to 11.11.70.1622 since the new 11.12.0.1622 doesn't cover some vulnerabilities in these older cpus.

I stuck a 9800x I had previously to get the encore up and running. Haven’t installed windows yet. Waiting on a 10900x or 10980x. Looks like it’s going to be a while.

I tested the new bios... and I have to say I can't recommend. In contrary of the claim to improve overclocking it required slightly more vcore and scores i.e. Cinebench R15 were significantly lower. Like instead of 4845 ish to like 4685 so roughly 150pts on a 10980XE. Went back to the privious bios with the same exact settings and everything back to normal. Well would not have been the first time intel messes up their micro code.

Should try this 0504 with the old microcode, see if it really comes from the new microcode

If you want to test 😉

Thanks for the offering, but I don’t buy a premium product with a premium price to play beta tester. The changes from the bios with improved system performance is a straight lie because the opposit is true if someone would have tested it in a common benchmark.

Yes it's clear
I don't have the Encore yet, I can't test but I would be the first to test this to find out what it is
