I'm using it. Seems nice! System starts up really quick now and changes in the bios are faster too.

damn...how many bios asus plan to release ? :eek:
I don't count them since P5W DH is out and retail C2D last to show at resellers .... :confused:
yeah i know. But i love it! Always loved using beta drivers for my nvidia card and as long as they're stable and quick and this bios feels faster and more responsive as a whole and in windows. Very nice indeed
i skipped 801 and 901 so i mind as well check this one out
:D thanks, downloading nowQuote:

One per day. They guess at the fixes then send them out for us to validate.Quote:

How I test the way a bios is because I'm a hardcore multiplayer gamer (usually always on top in Fear + bf2 etc). so I test each game to see if gameplay is more responsive and i can just "feel" how it's performing. Don't bench as what may be higher frames doesn't always equate to better responsiveness in game etc.
Also take out my music production apps and Traktor and see how it feels as I dj live and need my system stable AND quick! :p
i havent yet seen any performance increases, but i noticed:
- overclocking profiles (new to me, but i understand they go in and out)
- fan control seems fixed (silent was never really ever silent, fan just jumped all over the place, now it is!)
People aleady talk about overclocking profiles with bios 801 or beta 901 and I never had issues with fan control ( have bios beta 0065 ) ..
So which issues does that newbios solve ?
I'm really pissed off .. no read me file to shortlist any changes etc ..
:slapass: :slapass: Asus :mad:
I have a feeling we are the testers for their bios crew... wow they sure are saving a bunch lolQuote:

ok..
I now can add with each new one such readme file
" Support new CPUs. Please refer to our website at: http://support.asus.com.tw/cpusupport/cpusupport.aspx "
Intel should do the same
"Support new asus bioss. Please refer to our website at: http://support.intel.com./biossupport/biossupport.aspx " :banana: :banana:
Thanx so much asus for your deluxe products which give their owners lot of extras ( bios ) ... :D :p: :p: :p: :clap:
Google translated for 0901 and 0903Quote:

maybe the problems with 1.6875v and 1.700v vcore BIOS selections have been fixed...i'll give this BIOS a shot too later this evening.
Hmm, 903 is probably not based on 801, but 901. It seems there are two different bios people working on these. the beta ones seem more home made. Anyone know their source?Quote:

updating tonight
801 has been working fine for me so I'll wait till they release a bios without the bugs :)
With 801, Asus Probe locks up:mad:Quote:
