Gigabyte Z690 Aero G + i5-12600K + AMD RX 6800 XT

Should be exactly same EFI, etc, right?

There might be some differences, but existing EFI should be a good starting point.

Has anyone tried the DDR5 version of the Aero G? Any luck with 4 sticks of RAM?

Not even one problem with DDR5.

Not even one problem with DDR5.

But only only 2 sticks of DDR5. I understand many are having problems with 4, i.e., can't hold XMP speeds.

Is that problem happening even with latest BIOS that was released 2 days ago?

In my case XMP works. But I don't use it. I use the max Micron frequency = 200 MHz overclock over my max with default settings. In the near future I'll buy 32 GB more and I'll report.

Has anyone broke 2000 single core GB5 with DDR4?

New bios f6 is released. The change log is just change log from all the previous changes log combined in 1 . Hard to tell what’s the actual change is.
