What are the differences between rev 1.0 and 1.1? I know 1.2 just add Tbred support, but the others?

Good question, I'm in the market for a KX7-333R
Err, the other KX7's don't support Tbreds??
Please don't say this is true, look at my sig why.
Can it be fixed with a BIOSflash?

You have to unlock the cpu to get it to work with a KX7...

Fieeuw, OK then, nothing that can't be solved thus.
Hehe, thanks for the answer, I was waiting in agony :)

I thought the BIOS update solved the Tbred support.
How do you find the revision of your board? is it silk screened onto some area?
Starting to look like an EPoX thread! :D:D:D

Just arrived an Abit KX7-333 Raid ver 1.0 I'm trying to load the cpu with cpuburn and I get an abnormal vcore. Set to 1.85v it sits between 1.81v and 1.84v according to MBM. Is this normal?

Ah, if you look at the bottom of your board there is a barcode with your serial number below it... and to the right of the barcode it says the version in plain sight.

What are the differences in the versions? Any performance gains?

I RMA'ed my KX7-333R to ABIT last week because they told me there was a hardware fix to support the T-bred CPU. I flashed the BIOS to 9N and it was still a no-go for an locked T-bred, I am waiting for the fix-ed KX7 right now; wish they would speed it up.

I just picked this up on another forum:
"BTW, be aware that the current versions of these mobos hitting the streets now do fine with the Tbred cores. The mobo version is 1.2 or better. Reports are surfacing around the net that these mobos run the Tbred cores at first boot without issue."
Anybody got confirmation?

I wonder if ABIT is exchanging RMA v1.0 boards for the new v1.2 boards?

Nope, I just got a RMA, crossshipped of KX7, they sent me a version 1.0 that works with my Unlocked AMD 2200.
I looked at both boards before sending the first one back and I couldn't figure out what was different but, they are both version 1.0.
