But…but…EVGA said they are looking into it. 🤣

Actually they confirmed that they are "working" on it

..and 3 & half months later...     By the time they're done, we'll be well into 15th Gen.
 
 

The good thing? I pretested everything on my new rig, GOTTA love that removable MB Tray in the new O11 Evol XL, and it's working. I have everything pretty much placed in the case just waiting for the rest of the parts to come in. ( reverse  fans have been hard to come by)
Plus I only tend to build a new machine every 3-4 years or so, so I see MAJOR change when I do... King pin really doesn't have any reason to miss lead anyone about bios updates, unless you
think he is harboring a bit of hate with his being let go from EVGA...

As @brandsonbq copy&pasted, here is screenshot from Instagram correspondence with answer from man who designed these motherboards:

So, as some of us already predicted: no more BIOS updates for Z690, Z790. This is the END.
 
I'll be rocking my i9 13900KS with this EVGA Z390 Classified and when the time is to upgrade I'll get some other brand of motherboard.

EVGA lied to us then, great.

unfortunately told you guys the bios team is gone and 1.15 beta was the last one.

I think we should sign a petition to sue evga for refusing to update the z790 motherboards for 14th gen cpu's. I recently bought a 14700k and a evga z790 classified and no matter what I do I can't get my 14700k to be detected and I can't update to the latest bios.

I was lucky, Amazon let me return mine! I saw the writing on the wall after reading this forum. EVEN if having issues etc., it has been way too long for any update! I just wish everyone well. I still have a Z690 Classified I bought when they were blowing them out.
IT would be nice to fully utilize it... 
I wish everyone good luck, SINCERELY, that one day soon EVGA does release a new bios and ME microcode updates!

You want to spend thousands of dollars and a ton of people's time suing because you're out a few hundred dollars? Good luck with that. It has been clear to everyone in any corner of the tech world (if you just spent the time to look) that they're a company on their way down and there's been no product updates for this. It's a board that never had 14th Gen compatibility. It sucks they're not following through with promises made in the forums, but it's not like it was a secret that the boards don't support 14th Gen.

I'm pretty sure under certain regulations you have to support your product for multiple years before you stop supporting it. That's how it works for Apple and Samsung cellphones. You can't just release a product and not support it regularly with software updates. So that's a lawsuit waiting to happen and it's gunna impact evga heavily.
