• Beta BIOS for next-gen CPU support.

• Download the correct .zip file below for your motherboard:        

• First go into your BIOS and load defaults, save and exit

• Close all open programs.
• Go into the folder where you unzipped this package and double-click update.bat
• Press Y to start the flash process
• DO NOT TURN OFF POWER OR RESET DURING THE FLASH PROCESS
• After the flash is finished, the system will automatically shut down. Power on the system again and go into BIOS and adjust settings as needed.
• NOTE: If flash box immediately closes after flash attempt, the flash may need to be run from a CMD prompt with administrator privileges or DOS version.

• Extract the contents of .zip file to USB flash drive (must be formatted as FAT32)
• Reboot the machine and go into the system BIOS
• From the BIOS, navigate to the EXTRAS tab at the upper left and click on "BIOS Update"
• Select the .bin file you wish to flash.

What is this "next-gen CPU" you speak of? I'm not familiar with that term.

B0baganoosh
Thanks for clearing that up.

Beta BIOS for next-gen CPU support.  Suggest to wait if you are still on Alder Lake.
 
BETA BIOS 2.00 (E699 DARK K|NGP|N / E698 Classified)

• Beta BIOS for next-gen CPU support.

* NOTE * - Not recommended for use with Alder Lake processors.  We suggest waiting for a future update for full current and next-gen support.

I'm assuming this is for the 13900k?

zippytek
thanks for this, i'm still running 1.09, but i appreciate the work y'all do on the bios team. looking forward to 13900K/S

pharitthanun,
 
congratz!
 
help ppl on EVGA forums by creating a sig...
 
[...go here (), click on the "Signature and Comment" box, fill in your signature, and remember to save your signature....] (it's from aprox 75% down the page, below "Signature Size Limitations".)

 
 
Feel free to copy my signature, then edit it with ur Hardware.
 
 
And three questions plz...
 
1. Do u have HWiNFO64 Auto Starting when Windows boots, and no probs with it?
 
2. Have u ever experienced random, "Memory Has Changed" messages before or now since this BIOS update, when Booting when ur PC?
 
3. SPD Tab in CPU-Z always works (never Greyed out), no matter how many times u open and close CPU-Z?
 
GL
 
 

: my HWiNFO64 work normally 

: my cpuz and SPD tab work normally

cool. ty for the quick reply.
 
sry but i don't OC anymore. i did a long time ago. u sound like u know it very well.
 
So u got ur 5600Mhz Hynix ram up to 7800?
 
and forgive the off-topic question:
 
1. Do any of ASROCK Video cards come with DUAL vBIOS?
 
u have one -- an ASROCK vid card -- and i didn't even remember they made them lol; and i'm impressed with ur choice of PSU and ur Dark MOBO choice off course; and i need to decide on a vid card brand... of course.
 
i was thinking of getting an MSI vid 40 series card, but maybe also i'll consider an ASROCK now too. 
 
ty

sry for the long reply delay... i'm a Football junky...
 
so i guess there's four ingredients, for 7800MHz with 5600MHz RAM:
 
1. like u said, ".. [you] have next generation DDR5 IC hynix a die good for OC...."
2. You have the Dark and the exemplary skills of course. 
3. Both 1 and 2.
4. Nothing. (It's magic.)
 
But Congrats! again.
 
can u plz add your "Physical Memory Model#: " to ur sig for others sake -- maybe me too -- i'd like to research it and put it in my Hardware Folder and collect Articles and Reviews of it.
 
I wander if it can be done on a z690 Classified. What a money saver it could be for both the Dark and the Classified!
 
ty!

: yes sir.  now have next generation DDR5 IC hynix a die good for OC 
If in the future there is a BIOS made to support this IC. would be a very good thing
 
1. Do any of ASROCK Video cards come with DUAL vBIOS?
: yes my asrock 6900xt formula have dual vbios
If you go into the details. You'll know asrock formula series this is the best PCB of 6900XT/6950XT
 
In the future, I would like to see EVGA work with AMD.  I want to see 7900XT KINGPIN next gen.
in Nvidia there are 2 brands that I like the most. 1.EVGA KINGPIN 2.COLORFUL Vulcan series. Both have excellent PCB designs.
 
Now i'm waiting for AMD GPU with KINGPIN series

there are a lot of timing errors.
TRRDL / TRRDS / TFAW = 8/8/32 min floor for DDR5 
TCWL = TCL - 2 
TWR multiples of 6 . MIN FLOOR 48 connected to TRTP 
https://imgur.com/a/axLlVdx
on the dark do not change TWRPRE AND TWRPDEN . CHANGE TWR ONLY, set twrpre and twrpden auto 
AUTO twrrd sg/dg on the dark  
TWTRL = 16 (min floor) 
TWRS = 4(min floor) 
both TWTRL/S are connected to RRDL. for TWTRL/S = 16/4,  RRDL needs to be 8 because TWTRL = 2xRRDL
similarly , RDRDsg = RRDL (min floor)
WRWRsg = 2xRRDL (min floor)
RDRDdg = 8 
WRWRsg = 8 
the reason why 7 runs is because of rounding algo.
TRAS = TRTP + TRCD
 
TREFI 
tREFIx9 * 1024 = Maximum time (in ticks) between updates.  With tREFIx9 = 255, we get 255 * 1024 = 261120 clock cycles.  This is a window into which (multiple times) an integer number of tREFI loops must fit.Hence tREFI is equal to:      261120/1 = 261120 (may not be stable)    261120/2 = 130560 (fit 2 tREFI cycles)     261120/3 = 87040       261120/4 = 65280       261120/5 = 52224       261120/6 = 43520       261120/7 = 37302       261120/8 = 32640 (8 tREFI cycles)
