@dsanke I actually have been attempting this exact mod recently, though I am new to this modding community and I have likely overlooked something. I downloaded the .rom provided in the link, however, I have been using the ASUS flashback utility in conjunction with CoffeeTime, I was only ever instructed in that instance to rename the .bin image to a .cap (Z170D.CAP) for the BIOS to be flashed. I am not familiar with how to flash a .rom file. Does this require an SPI Programmer? or any other modifications? eg. injecting my own MAC, UUID, MB Serials?

Thanks in advance for any help figuring this out, I would be glad to share any findings I can if I get this up and running.

@SirGunther
The ROM is the same as BIN, just treat as BIN file.
But if you only use flashback, you may can not flash the proper flash descriptor, which will cause you still can not boot CFL CPUs.
SPI Programmer is the best, after all this mainboard have a DIP SPI Flash.
And make sure you have backup before you flash via SPI Programmer.
You can transfer SN/UUID/MAC via FD44editor.

@dsanke Thank you! I had a feeling you'd have the answers I was looking for. I will have to pick up an SPI programmer in that case. Will update soon.

Thanks again!

@dsanke

The mod Bios 2202 works perfect on my Z170-DELUXE. Could you please share that ASUS MAXIMUS VIII HERO(M8H) v2202 bios to support 16 threads.
Thank you so much!

Zitat von dsanke im Beitrag #1
Based on Z170-DELUXE-ASUS-2202
I want to see someone overclocking 9900K using this mainboard to show how strong its VRM is.

Is this still relevant?

5.2 GHz 30 min Aida64 stresstest. About 1,4v (Direct DIE), 4,9 Cache. VRM Temp. at the end 68°.

I have a slow spinning fan (500 rpm) over the memory (B-Die, therefore the cooling)so some air gets to the VRM. I did an VRM test in Feb. 2019 when I first did that mod. Back then the CPU was only at 4,9 and the VRM went to 80°, but that was with nearly no air moving over it.
Without the fan over the memory and todays 5,2 GHz I guess we would see something around 90-95° which is hot, but still not too bad. Nevertheless I wouldn't run the todays 5,2 GHz without the fan over the memory for some passiv active VRM cooling.
