Umm i flashed it and when i go to the memory timings it freezes up everything. Will flash back to 1.1

Seems to work ok.
Can boot up to 300+ FSB now (booting up at 280 w/ the 1.1 bios would not load winxp). 3DMark reads the FSB correctly now too.

didnt do anything positive for me. but the 3Dmark FSB is indeed fixed.
Actually, quite a few are saying memory performance got improved quite a bit with the new BIOS:

Quite a few say scores have jumped across the board.
You guys seeing this?
Also, with the new optimizations, some memory timings may need to be changed a bit.

I picked up a bit of performance under 3DMark2001...about 120 pints or so. Sandra also indicates a tiny bump in unbuffered scores. Nothing earth shaking though.
