What about moding your own bios by removing new u code and replacing older ucode? I did this on both z690 strix d4 and Apex, not sure how it would work on other vendors MB.

A friend of mine had tried to do this but no luck, disabling e cores just didn’t enable avx512, and the option isn’t there to enable it in bios

check the bios version in this video, it looks like maybe it's ES/Beta? 0.00 hmmm

I tried the shipped 1.0 and the latest 1.04 but neither show the AVX-512 offset with e cores disabled. I tried per core and disabled them all and also legacy with core count = 0. no luck. reached out to some folks but if anyone has suggestions it is much appreciated

Definitely looks like its an ES bios. Going to get a dark myself when my notify hits for some more testing, might also reach out to a few people to see if some modding will allow avx-512 support.
