Description: MAXIMUS VIII RANGER BIOS 0801
1.Update Intel ME version to 1168
2.Enhance DDR4 compatibility
I am using ASUS VIII Ranger and I found no obvious changes from previous version which got pulled.
I am using G.Skill Ripjaws 4 3000 Mhz RAM (2x8GB) kit.
On previous pulled BIOS, Memtest used to fail on 3000 Mhz's default voltage. But it passed when voltage was bumped by 0.02V. I will test stability tomorrow. It's too late here in India. Gotta sleep.
On optimized default settings, it runs at 2133 Mhz. But when I use XMP profile of 3000 Mhz, it takes 20-25 seconds for monitor to show ROG logo and start the boot process. Why such delay to boot at 3000 Mhz when it boots in 2 seconds if I set the speed at 2900 Mhz?
These days it's fashionable to release half arsed products and let early adopters do all your beta testing. Damages reputation.
