April 18th, 2007. This is when ABIT decided to fully support the QX6700 on this board. That's 6 months later. In the IT world, 6 months can be a generation of a processor type, or a new technology. For ABIT, it was the time needed for the skilled engineers to write a working BIOS.
Officially yes, but I had this beta bios when I had my AW9D-Max just after christmas:- Abit AW9D Beta Bios Fix for Kentsfield! - 6th January 2007
