;678807']With Intel's Z370 launch we can forget about any BIOS development for x370, let alone the Crosshair VI Extreme. Asus only care about selling new stuff rather than support for existing customers. I will not be buying Asus in the future following the disgusting experience I have had with their post-sale support.

Just wondering if anyone has heard anything from ASUS about the new bios update? They seem to be pumping out several updates for the Hero, but I haven't seen anything lately for the Extreme except rumors.

Test BIOS 0052fixes the CPU Temperature offset reset after entering sleep mode, will be included next official release which I'm told we'll have ~November. Should soon have the same bios for C6H WIFI and C6E. SHA256 1b6b28f4ee26c136ff129d70456bdb989c27c4860ab36448dfd72c89b7f7171e

Regarding the SIO issue, it's being worked on and we've made some good progress. There's a final solution soon that will require co-operation from the 3rd party monitoring developers.

From my testing HWInfo64 should be working OK, or at least it's very difficult to make it fail. I think it still happens for some people since the "corrupt SIO" issue can be quite sticky, even after clearing power. Essentially if it's been caused once by any software, it's difficult to get back to a normal state. I've been able to recover by powering off the PSU so there's no standby power, and then pulling the battery for a minute.
