Please share your experiences and issues with these bios versions. Most likely identical but with different settings with the beta driver having all cores synced (although you can't tell due to the bad descriptions and naming schemes).

Sufficient processor cooling is required for better performance.

I'll share myself once I am done testing.

So far I've not seen much improvement in this BIOS release. My G.Skill F4-3600C16Q-32GTZR kit's XMP settings still don't allow the computer to boot and run stable unless I ramp back the mhz to 3000mhz from 3600mhz.
Also still seems hard to get a stable overclock that doesn't have weird voltage spiking.

It seems the boards dont like the CL16 settings at all. Fastest I can get stable in all tests is 5.0/3200CL16-16-16-36-2.
All 3600/CL16 in QVL have 16-18-18-36, none is a straight 16-16-16-36. Maybe the Z370/8thgen-IMC dont like to go higher, curious to see if that can be fixed.
My latency at 5.0/3200 is ~50ns. My Z270 using the exact same kit at XMP is at 40.8ns Memory Latency ( Aida64 Benchmark ).
To me, it looks such, that the 8thgen IMC is not as tolerant as the 7thGen/Z270 combo is.

New kits are seldom added to the QVL post launch timeframe. Not ideal, but nothing new, either.
