Seems like a new bios every few weeks now, what is 3.50 addressing?
No idea but I have updated and all seems well. Think it's just the new agesa
Updated - all good thanks @RobotGirl

I was going to order this board, but then realised they have done a slight refresh, with the Nova non-E variant. In my opinion it is better because it has no PCIE x1 slot, favouring a a second x16 gen 4 slot and 2x gen 5 PCIE m.2 slots and revised wifi 7 antenna, also updated to BIOS 3.5.
For £270 delivered, it’s the best board out there at the moment, even better than my Gigabyte Aorus x870e Master!
The Nova is running a 9950X3D and a 5090 like a champ.

Bios 4.03 has been released
1. Update AGESA to ComboAM5 1.2.7.1 for upcoming CPU compatibility.
2. Support v-color's OLED display on the memory module.
I'll give it a go this evening!

I’ve put it on my non-e Nova. -20mv on all cores curve, and locked 1.1 (From 1.2) on the SOC. (9950x3d)

Not updated since 3.40
Will need to get around to this, guessing I best take notes of my current bios settings as I have my CPU running at 65w with -30 on all cores. Do you guys reset BIOS to default before updating?

Nah, the only thing you have to do is "load defaults" after the bios update completes, then "save the changes" and exit. Then, go back into BIOS and reapply your settings.
