I would also like a conformation on if a bios update is needed for a 14900k on the Z690 classified MB or if there will be one available in the future.
Thanks for all your support!
14900k/F should function in the motherboard, but an update from EVGA is needed for default V/F/clocks to work right on the "14th gen". You can manually set the per-core OC ratios to function the way the chip is supposed to and do your own voltage adjustments (checking for stability of course). Basically go through what you would go through to manually overclock/undervolt your CPU, but just to get it running the way Intel intended.
As I understand from others here, the 14700k/F is not detected correctly on these boards. Kingpin posted some test results (see post 77 above) with the z690 with the 14900k and confirmed manual adjustments are required to get it running correctly until EVGA provides official BIOS support for the "14th gen".
I know you're hoping that EVGA will come in here and say...anything...at all...but we've all been waiting for that and haven't seen it in months in the z690/z790 motherboard sections.
