Reviewers use either pre release or release bios so it should be fixed with the latest version

Just pick your flashing method and solve the issues: http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Fatal1ty%20Z170%20Gaming%20K4/?cat=Download&os=BIOS

 

Or you could also try one of the beta Bios. Personally, I'd do that, since you do have a dual Bios mobo in case something goes wrong......
