Somehow it flashed the bios 3009, even when I downlaode 3103, så I update bios again, and now it works.

Huh. More evidence for the "flash 30xx twice" advice I've been giving.

Is the dual bios arrangement outsmarting us and reverting? I haven't had any issue with this.

I have no idea why it did it.

But is fixed. and im just happy.

I’m having this same issue myself with the Rampage V Edition 10.
I had a 6900k happily running @4.4Ghz on bios 1801, then I made the horrible mistake of flashing to 1902 and just like you, no matter what I do in the bios, cpuz keeps showing 3.7Ghz when I get into Win10.
Windows 10 itself has never given me the correct speed, but cpuz and hwmonitor always have. But no matter what I set my multiplier to in the bios (x40, x42, x44) it shows up fine in the bios, but once I’m in windows it’s right back to showing at x37.
I went back to bios 1801 and it didn’t fix it, so I switched to the second bios (which had bios 502) and flashed that to 1801... still didn’t work.

I’m done banging my head against a wall for now... but when I get back on I’ll try to refladh the bios to 1801 twice in a row and see if that does anything.

Before I gave up I decided to try running memtest86 on a usb stick, and it did indeed show that my boost clock was set to 4400mhz.
So what I’m thinking is that somewhere between the bios and windows, turbo boost is being ignored or disabled in some way.

This $1000 cpu is pretty much a piece of garbage at this point. 3.7Ghz is crap. *
