I don’t have a copy of the 1.89 BIOS you need, but you can easily mod the 1.80 BIOS to add the necessary OPROM to support NVMe booting.

emmm... i do it before :use MMTool_5.07 add NVMeExpressDxE.ffs to EP2C602-4LD16(1.80)ROM, see picture;

save image ,then i put mod P602_4D1.80 into a USB flash drives , use

instant flash , select mod P602_4D1.80 file and continue , then my dell U2717D show blank screen but not no signal (EP2C602-4L-D16 ,128GB ECC DDR,GTX 1070 FTW), Waited for a while, no response . when i restart and it work normal with original bios . i think that original bios have protected or verified ? and how to mod again ? plz help me ,thanks very much ,sorry for my bad englist @Coool @teamawesome

That isn't the recommended way. Try this.

The E5-2680 v2 will work just fine in a dual or single socket configuration. It will have more cores but a slower frequency compared to the E5-1680 v2. Just because a CPU is dual socket capable doesn't mean it must be used with two CPU's.

Correct.

Have you tried @teamawesome suggestion https://tonymacx86.com/posts/1758548 to patch 1.80 UEFI?
I will post ASRock EP2C602-4L/D16 UEFI L1.89I some time at ASRock Forum mentioned at https://tonymacx86.com/posts/1757686
Currently you can't boot any NVME drives! Correct? Could you test if NVME UEFI is working? What NVME drive do you have?
Are you user tbot from ASRock Forum?

Thanks.

I'm looking to build a system based on the ASRock EPC602D8A (single socket version based on the same C602 chipset)
