Don't update to version to bios 3006

It caused Kernal panics in every single working build I tested 10.13, 10.4 and 10.15. There was no setting in the bios I found (after about 4 hours of trying) that solved the kernel panics.

To remedy, I used the Asus flashback tool on the motherboard detailed here, and flashed back to version 2002.

Neither bios updater in the bios itself nor using a USB with the Bupdater in dos allowed a rollback of the bios.

That's what happened to me. Your mileage and performance may vary.
 
Guess that's the only solution for now... Thanks for the feedback!
 
The MSR lock option is broken in the 3000 series BIOS. you will need to patch your BIOS file with UEFITool and add SSDT-AWAC to your EFI folder.

I wrote some instructions here.
