As iam always an early adopter, i had a rare chance to get my hands on an 11700k early and first i tried with already installed 2002 on my MB. It was very bugged, booting took 30 seconds till i saw a picture, IF i got a picture at all, trying to OC fails immediatly, couldnt alter few settings in the bios like Sync all cores to 53, as soon ive set it to 53 it revereted back to 50 automatically. My 3090rtx was powered with X16 1.1... so i decided to flash the newest firmware 2004 with bios flashback but after i saw the Updating Intel ME and the screen turned black and the mainboard switched off, its impossible to power it on again... its not starting anymore. I did flashback several times now ith 2004, always the same result. No starting of the Mainboard.
Asus, PLEASE !!! if you put something into public, test it yourself before doing so ! you make ENOUGH money on a Mainboard which was 990€. I expect quality not only in Hardware but also in the Software you put on your boards.
update: i fixed it by updating BOTH bios on the board.

When updating z490 MB with 11th gen CPU it takes much longer than normal. So long it seems like it is not going to work. At least in my 2 experiences flashing z490 Apex and z490 Unify. I would say 5-10 minutes. I just walk away and let it do its thing.
Also boot were memory trains can be extremely long. Again so long it seems like it is a failed boot. I am talking well over a minute, maybe even 2 min depending on ram and settings. Like high clock dual rank b die @4533 takes forever to train initially.

Oh I didn't realize that you hadn't been using a 10th gen CPU previously. Maybe try one of these bios https://www.overclock.net/threads/asus-rog-maximus-xii-extreme-z490-discussion-owners-thread.1747862...
I am pretty sure though I flashed one of the bios using the 11900k and the bios I was flashing did not support 11th gen. It could vary from Apex to extreme though? Not sure.
With that said I wouldn't recommend using z490 MB with 11th gen CPU. It works but you will not get the most out of it if you are into mem OC. It is still buggy.
