    Currently getting a bug in this bios voltages across the board are setting .20 - .60 higher than what is set according to bios read outs regardless of vdroop settings. Also a bug in the GUI where the mouse pointer either lags severely or freezes which seems to happen when trying to move the pointer to soon after entering the bios as I have yet to see it happen when waiting a few seconds to interact.

    No problems with this update although I saw no problems with version 2.01.
     
    Don't forget to load bios defaults after updating.
     
    Thanks EVGA for continuing updates on this board.

    Not sure about the voltages but had the lag issue on my FTW when updated to 2.04. Went back to 2.01 via bios switch for a few days, decided to retry newer bios, shut down system, killed power, switched bios on MB, did bios reset, powered on and system is flawless. All lag is gone and temps are more accurate.

    Possible to get support for GSKILL F3-17000CL9Q-8GBZH kit and similar in the next update please? Can't go above 1600mhz.

    When I try to run the update I get this error - 
     
    "Error 200: Invalid parameter value specified by user. Use -? option to see help"
     
    I've tried running it as admin and using the bootable USB method. Any ideas?
