I have modded the 3802 BIOS for CPUID 906EA in this post.

You will likely need a SPI programmer to flash the modified BIOS as Asus uses BIOS locks that will stop you from downgrading ME version (if you have upgraded to 11.8).

1. EVGA Z370 Classified K, Core i9-9900KS @ 5.0 GHz, 4x8GB Patriot Viper Steel DDR4-4133 MHz,
Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVMe 2TB, Asus 2070 Mini OC, Corsair AX850
2. Gigabyte Z390 UD, Core i7-9700K @ 4.9 GHz, 4x8GB Patriot Viper Steel DDR4-3733 MHz,
Samsung 950 Pro NVMe 512MB, GALAX GTX 1060 OC, EVGA G2 850W
