ASUS motherboard users, beware of BIOS 2012!

[darthsian]

Hi all, there is some problem with new BIOS 2012 for Asus boards. Mojave won't boot with this BIOS.
I'm trying to find how to go back to the older version of BIOS, but so far, no tutorial I've tried is working.

ASUS support told me that it is impossible to downgrade. Looks like we're all screwed...

Rule of thumb... If macOS is running good on your system then don't update the BIOS. Updating the BIOS isn't going to improve the system performance. macOS works best with older BIOS.

BIOS updates usually fix bugs and updates to work with newer cpu or memory modules.

That's why I updated, Windows and my older BIOS were not recognizing my RX 570... Updating BIOS fixed that.
