Patch is for the model listed. Don't know if it affects others as you'd need to test to know.

Guys I'm very confused. There's UEFI and UEFI Build now. Which should I install? I'm currently running 0503 and it's giving me tons of USB problems.

And could somebody tell me how to install those as well please? With clearing CMOS and complicated stuff like that?

Thanks!

Tested 0603 on a fresh Windows 10 install and now my phone works like normal on all USB ports.
I checked with my phone on all USB ports except the BIOS one. No on and off on certain ports.
Also CPU temp seems back to normal for me, had to change FAN profile. ^^

Make sure you have latest firmware found in first post.
If you installed 1.00.10, then just update to 1.00.13 too.
If you have not installed 1.00.10 make sure to update to it first and then update to 1.00.13.

Download 0603 and extract the UEFI file from the rar with 7zip or winzip.
Update to 0603 like normal (I always use the EZ flash inside UEFI, but any method should work fine).

I usually clear CMOS and "load optimized defaults" in the UEFI before and after the "UEFI update", but it is most important after.
To clear CMOS without opening the case:
-->Shutdown Computer
-->When fans stop spinning hold clear CMOS found on top of the motherboard IO back panel for 3 sec or so.


Then please consider trying what I did and install Windows 10 again when done with the UEFI update.
Test if same happens now with the default Windows 10 drivers. Hopefully it helps like it did on my phone.

If your NZXT hardware with USB connection still have issues after trying this, I would consider contacting NZXT.
A friend said they tend to fix things fast.

Currently my ROG Zenith have a Enermax Liqtech 360 TR4 that have no USB connections.
Both my ROG RVE10´s use a Corsair H115i that have a USB connection,
but I only use Corsair Link to adjust fans when needed and then store the fan profile
in the AIO. First thing I do is to turn off "start with Windows" so only driver is running.

My Inateck 4 port USB pci-e card works now without issue. Haven't tried my other non-inateck pci-e cards tho.

Not tested limits yet on 0603 so not sure anything change there yet,
but for me some of the sensor readings are a little random in AIDA64.

Mostly VRM temp and some of Fan sensors seems to turn off and on
sometimes (does not seem to affect anything thou, fans running like normal).
Also noticed AIDA64 says now it is a unknown motherboard,
everything else seems to be detected like normal.

I only run one monitoring software trying to avoid conflict and this
includes not opening task manager. I also disable all CPU sensors in
GPU OC Software.

Hi Raja,
I can confirm the 0603 issue did fix my issue with the Intateck 7-port card. However, the other two major issues still persist for me:

1) The PCI-e x4 slot does not get isolated by IOMMU correctly.

2) There still seem to be PCI-e power saving issues. My 1080ti's still get stuck in D3 power-saving mode, which is what is breaking PCI-passthrough (as it has to be put in D3 power saving until the VM starts). Same issue seen with suspend/resume normally outside of PCI-passthrough - can't wake from D3.

Full technical details are still the same as here:

I am concerned because I noticed that by "RAID driver update" you meant, this includes the new NVMe RAID update from AMD that was touted for 9/25 (I now see NVMe raid options in the BIOS). That means any hope I had of that resolving these issues is probably poof, which likely explains why AMD went quiet on Reddit this week about whether that update would do anything about these problems.

So... any idea of a realistic timeline for fixes on these issues?

Thank you so much! I will definitely try to do this.

But how do I know which Firmware I have?
How do I update it? There's tons of stuff in the .zip file.
And where can I download the V1.00.13 version?

EDIT: Thanks again for the helpful steps. It worked perfectly! The new BIOS is installed. Unfortunately all of my problems remain.

EDIT 2: Problems fixed! Reinstalled every single USB driver, updated Windows to the latest version (did this include new AMD USB Drivers?) and reinstalled NZXT CAM and Corsair Utility Engine. Also uninstalled Logitech Gaming Software (garbage), swapped cables of the Vive, unplugged/plugged everything and updated Vive firmware and drivers (for both Bluetooth and the device itself).
