But you have a 13700K cpu ... this bios is not meant for this CPU yet. Its meant for the i7-13700 NOT the i7-13700K that you have.

My sincerest apologies. I made a mistake. The microcode is for all 13th/14th gen processors, regardless of variants.

Hi HixS,
Apologies for the delay response.
I highly recommend that you seek assistance with your motherboard support to know where you can find those BIOS settings.
Just to add, as a general best practice Intel recommends users adhere to Intel Default Settings on their desktop processors. Intel is not changing the tuning capabilities of existing K sku processors. Users who desire to overclock or utilize higher power delivery settings than recommended can still do so at their own risk as overclocking may void warranty or affect system health (learn more at Overclock Your CPU with Unlocked Intel® Processors - Intel).
You may also refer to this link that may help you:
Microcode (0x129) Update for Intel Core 13th and 14th Gen Desktop Processors - Intel Community
Here's the link of your motherboard manufacturer for latest BIOS updates for reference:
Z790 AORUS ELITE AX (rev. 1.0) Support | Motherboard - GIGABYTE Global
For more details about the Warranty of Intel processors, kindly check this link:

We can help you with the troubleshooting if you want, however if you really wish to claim warranty, please contact your local warranty support team for them to gather the needed details and validate your processor.
