I put the 14900k in my z690 dark and it showed up as 14900k in bios and HWinfo. I enabled XMP on my 2x16 corsair vengeance 6200 kit. I used OC ROBOT for the first time and despite it saying "non-OC cpu detected" it completed the stress test and offered a 5ghz OC which I accepted. I ran cinebench r23 multicore and only scored 37,000 but I think I have a bad mount on my waterblock. Anyway it survived a 30minute r23 test and now I'm gaming without any crashes. So... seems fine? I do wish I had an easy 6.2GHz button though...

My stock 13900k on the z690 dark scores 41,xxx. 14900k is a waste of time imo.

what settings, config etc? as for 14900k being a waste that's fine I bought it as a binned 13900k

Yes, I can confirm that we are working on it and as soon as available we will notify everyone on the forums as well.  Thank you for your patience.

So it is almost September. I know it was mentioned in another thread that EVGA is working on the BIOS update For the Z690s and Z790s.

They are still working on it, right? And hopefully for this year?








guys just wait, the admin told us they are working on this. 
chill, let the developers work, is better to get a good bios update over a rushed one. 


The funny part is that, there is NO developers left at EVGA motherboard divison. 
EVGA is done. No more new BIOSes or other products in general, what remains is support staff to handle does RMAs/warranties that they are obligated to do, before Andrew Han completely shuts down the company.

Stock 13900k, with 32GB’s of 5600 mhz ram using an evga 240 aio.

I reset the bios to clear the OC ROBOT 5GHz settings and just scored a 40.1k on r23. Maybe I'll get it higher later.

Does anyone think its worth going to the 13900KS from a 12900k? All I’ve been looking at are FPS differences, and it’s not a whole lot. For double the $ I’m liable to get 2x-4x the performance in fps from a 4080 from what I’d get from the KS.

Probably not worth it, but for some it might be.

Just thinking in the future with new video cards if we will have the same issue like with the 4090 FE that didn't show display without a newer BIOS....In that case we are SOL.
