ASUS Z87 Motherboards - Overview, Guides and Official Support

[Pants-Of-Fire]

No,it should write back to UEFI. If you changed anything then obviously whatever was changed in UEFI will stick (it does not create an OS based profile becasue it is supposed to write the settings to UEFI). Make sure you are running the latest AI Suite build for the board also.

Definitely doesn't work then. I'm running the latest AI Suite and checked all the components against the Asus global website. I'm running a Z87-Pro with the latest 1205 UEFI, and it reloads the old UEFI settings into AI Suite at every boot, and won't save the settings back to the UEFI. The version of AI Suite unpacks to "AISuite_III_Win7_8_Z87-Deluxe_VER10044" - is this the correct version for the Pro board? It is what is given under the Asus Z87-Pro download page, and it is newer than the one on the support CD.

It does save the settings to UEFI when you run the 4 Way Tuning, but after that any manual changes do not stick between bootups.

This is especially annoying because it's loading a massive 1.275v adaptive voltage into the CPU under load, giving very high temps and high voltages that are completely unnecessary and potentially damaging, and won't save my changes to the settings. I've had AI Suite report 1.396v under load, when it really isn't needed to get stability on my chip.
