Hello. Which of these do you recommend? https://rog.asus.com/motherboards/rog-strix/rog-strix-x870e-e-gaming-wifi/helpdesk_bios/
I've seen reddit posts saying the safe one is
1401
since those before have ram voltage issues and those after have problems being reported, now the latest one seems to be giving people issues?
What is the safe one to get?

Ryzen 9800X3D
Asus X870E-E Gaming WiFi
2x32GB Adata XPG 6000mhz cl30
RTX 5080

Thanks
 
The saying, if it ain't broke, don't fix it, comes to mind. Meaning if you're not incurring any stability issues, leave it be and wait for the storm to go over. In fact, if you were on the first release BIOS you'd still have functionality of your platform/processor.

my board is a few behind 1401, but i read posts from someone who had ther cpu fried and had voltage issues and their rma board solved it with 1401

That doesn't apply for CPU-BiOS combinations with endemic problem which may result in damage to CPU.

Hi, im bulding this system ina few days (only the case is left to ship)
Ryzen 9800X3D
Asus X870E-E Gaming WiFi
2x32GB Adata XPG 6000mhz cl30
RTX 5080

So, im reading about the need to go to a safe bios with the mobo for this cpu. How do i do it, do i immediately update the bios as soon as it firsts posts? or do i go into windows, install all drivers and then go back to the bios update? Do i need to reinstall the chipset drivers if i update the bios? thanks
