February 13, 2023 -

Greetings, I am currently using a ROG STRIX B650E-F GAMING WIFI motherboard, and I am trying to update Bios version from BIOS 0613 to BIOS 0821 .

I tried using the EZ Flash and updating it manually in my BIOS, but after doing so, the PC restarted instantly and CPU red light indicator on my motherboard. I had to do a flashback, back to the BIOS version 0613 to get my system to POST.

Should I try using the ASUS AI Suite 3 V3.03.17 app instead to update BIOS? I am confused, because I believe there is the same functionality occuring between an EZ Flash procedure and updating through the AI Suite application. Any help/tips would be great, as I am trying to get on that 0821 version to better support system performance, 40 series cards, and DRAM optimization.

Cheers!
