There is no way Asus will support previous gen products, greedy bastards! They did the same thing for my 4 years old mobo when those windows exploits etc was out. They ignored all their top end boards before. They will do the same again.
Gladly Gigabyte does support resizable bar on the Z390 series, i've activated it since BIOS rerelease on the end of march (F10K) on my "Z390 Gaming SLi" mobo. Also Palit, wich is the fab of my RTX 3080, released compatible BIOS right away. For example, Forza 4 jumped from 118-119 avg. fps, at the builtin game benchmark, to 126 fps, 4K all maxed out; pretty good for a free perf. boost.
Reality is that Asus kept silent on this 41 page thread on ROG forums and tried to bury it.
Everyone started getting more and more furious when they moved the thread from where it belongs..
from
Maximus X/XI & Strix Motherboards (Z370/Z390)
to
Other Series Motherboards..
AND PLEASE Astyanax don't bother responding to my post...
And while you're there can you please finally fix fans engaging immediately instead of following Ramp Up/Down Time in BIOS setting.
So we don't have to use 3rd party app.
Other than that top motherboard. Will buy again, and will carry water for you Asus.

Awesome news. Thx!!

The only asus engineers on that forum is Shamino and Raja, nobody else can be expected to answer bios questions and they have to go through corporate to get permission to both release news and files.

My Gigabyte Z390 ( Aorus Pro v. 12L ) released a month ago BIOS, but in vain, since my GPU manufacture won't release BIOS update for my 1660 Super. Too bad.
I'm definitely out of the loop here so....What is Resized BAR?
Basically the system being able to access the GPU memory in whatever amounts, including all at once, instead of the traditional 256MB chunks. Depending on the game it can result in anything from a large performance boost to a performance loss, which is why nVidia use a whitelist so far. It's the same thing as AMD's "Smart Access Memory".
I guess those of us with an ASUS x399-A Prime are SOL? I’ve been a loyal Asus motherboard customer for more than a decade. This is the last time I give them my money.
Oh my, someone else that can't read a forum. Moving a thread dedicated to two entire chipsets, upwards from a smaller sub-forum that is specific to a sub-set of only two ranges, up to the forum for ALL ranges using that chipset and more, is a thread upgrade highlighting it for more people, and putting it in the right place.
Yes "Maximus X/XI & Strix Motherboards (Z370/Z390)" was a small subsection within "Other Series Motherboards.." already.
This whole thing really has shown up how clueless some people on the internet can be.
Yes, I signed up just to post that, because the idiocy of it all is mind numbing from a supposedly technical community.
Don't jump to conclusions and telling me or anyone that i can't read and don't know the structure of a forum.
Yeh they did us a big favor of highlighting it for more people, and putting it in the right place.
Unfortunately there where many users (not clueless) having a hard time finding it and moving it did not help, so i started a new thread under "Maximus X/XI & Strix Motherboards (Z370/Z390)" with a link to the thread trying to help these "clueless people" and immediately got deleted as i suspected.
The fact remains that this thread started four months ago before getting a reply, the ADMIN excused his delay by saying he was away for a local (4 month) holiday.
If you registered on Guru3d just to post all of the above and defend ASUS, I suggest you unsubscribe.
I am sure you are not welcomed here if you have nothing else to offer.
So now you deleted your post..Seems like i am getting attacked left right and center since one of my posts made the headlines of a tech site.
My post "Today at 4:24 PM", "Last edited: Today at 6:49 PM"
Your post "kens30, Today at 7:45 PM"
I thought better of making an issue of it and deleted it, it was a kindness, it would have been more sensible to have left it deleted.
That deletion was nearly an hour before you posted your reply.

5m to check -
Thread started 12-07-2020, admin posted on 01-30-2021 saying resizable bar updates were in the pipeline. 1 month 23 days, not 4 months.
They edited that post on 04-05-2021 to add the list of the current set. Then 3 days later on 04-08-2021 they mentioned being on a local holiday when confirming the updates were coming. 3 days is not a 4 month holiday either.
The agent doesn't seem to be aware that just because a motherboard is EOL, that doesn't mean it won't get future BIOS updates.
For example, my previous ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 (Intel 2500k mobo) last got a BIOS update in 2015, well past it's EOL date.

This is also correct, quite a few EOL boards got Spectre bios updates after all.
