Dear EVGA Community,
 
Thank you everyone for your patience while our team worked on the updates per Intel for the Z690 motherboards. 
These updates include the latest 0x12B Microcode and the Intel ME Firmware Update (16.1.32.2473).
 
This BIOS is considered BETA, and we only recommend flashing it to one of your BIOS chips, just in case you need to revert back to an older version.
 
The BETA BIOS can be downloaded at the links below:
 
Please take note that the 0x12B Microcode is only tested with the Intel 13th Gen. Processors on the EVGA Z690 Motherboard Series.

    Yes, it is part of BIOS update and if you revert to an earlier version of the BIOS the ME will revert as well.
