Dated August 17 it is version 2606:

PRIME X570-P BIOS 2606
"Improve system performance and stability
Improve Fan control function
Improve DRAM stability
Update AM4 AGESA combo V2 PI 1.0.8.0
Improve system stability
Improve DRAM performance"

I am going to flash it tonight.

I am sure other Asus AMD boards will be getting an update, too.

What’s this “re-sizable BAR” thing that is in the new bios?
I haven’t updated yet.

Kind of lost me one that link. I get the 10,000 overview
Is this irrelevant if I have a 3800x?
it is the original name for AMD's SAM technology. Basically just cpu addressable VRAM on video cards supported in PCIexpress 3.0 and higher.

The new BIOS supports it with the 3000 series cpus.
What is this " do not update if 3300x is being used" like why not?

That is an Asrock BIOS update and on some boards like B450 updating the BIOS removes support for earlier cpus.

I decided to update to 3602, as well. Everything seems fine but the process was nerve-wracking when it rebooted but I didn't get any video.

I then just manually rebooted it and it came up. I set my DOCP and turned off the RGB on the board.

:)

You don't need to go up version by version you can go straight to the newest.

But i'm not sure those are bios related those error look more windows related.

is your build using a fresh install of Windows?

No, i upgraded from hdd to sata ssd . Cloned.
Then from sata ssd to nvme - again cloned.
I have updated the chipset and gfx drivers. Let me observe for a few days.

Good to know. Just checked on my x570-pro, also available with an update. The USB disconnect issue somehow randomly came back on my system recently. Not causing any issues, and nothing really disconnecting. Just hear the annoying usb disconnect/reconnect sound every hour or so. Gonna run the update, hopefully fixes it, annoying.

I tried out the new BIOS and so far so good.

I am going to tweak my ram a bit and see if I can get some more performance from my system.
