  1. I bench on my daily setup with a capture card, and I use a LG CX 48 as my main monitor, so 4K is super readable. 
     

    With no drivers installed, you can’t change the resolution, and changing the scaling messed with some programs especially OCTool, though I have a solution to that, and a way to force 1440p, I just didn’t bother because the extra resolution makes it easy to have hwinfo (3 tabs wide), cpuz, oc tool, and cinebench all open, since hitting positive temps on this platform is real and I wanted to see how bad it was sometimes (across 64 or 96 cores)
     

    Besides, the scaling on the benchmate window makes it the same percent size as on a 1080p monitor, making it equally easy to get all the info.

     

    (PS pro tip, to fix how windows scaling applies to HWINFO and OCTool, right click the exe, properties, compatibility tab, high DPI settings, change the bottom dropdown to System (Enhanced). I usually do just bench with 150% scaling)

    My z690 Maximus hero has the newer bios that does not have bclk oc. I tried flashing back the older bios, (with older bios flashback enabled) and it won’t accept the older bios. It flashes the led for about 3-4 seconds then goes solid. The ME has been updated also. Am I screwed?

    You can just mod the bios to use the older microcode that supports it.Here is one from latest bios

    Alternatively, you can use an EVC or other spi flasher to force flash the older bios, that worked for me.
