    Well no 1 bios is good. You will need to find what is best for you. But if I had to say for the X2 it would be 704-2BT.

    I had already read that, but I didn't say what I wanted to.
    The thing is that I don't find it, and I wondered where I could get it.

    Thanks!

    I would have to agree with njkid32. The 704-2BT has been the best bios for my combination so far.

    @ Perc

    Try this burn in method. It worked for me. Good luck

    But aren't you guys afraid of that bug in the 704 BIOS that made them dangerous with ethe vcore? I know this one's modded as not to have those values, but isn't it still dangerous? :P

    the BT bios is modded so the dangerous options arent avail to you so there is no need to worry - the highest you can choose is 113% and the problem happened when you seleced higher than that!

    Yea, I don't argue that, but it's kind of a killing BIOS, isn't it? And maybe there is some stuff which would kill your CPU as well but haven't been found. :P
