As far as I know/remember, the BIOSes addressed a "bug" with the 9800GX2, not exactly a PCI-Express 2.0 BUS issue or bandwidth related issue.
Doesn't even matter, since I'm running the latest BETA's on every board.

I'm thinking of starting some tests with the Striker II Extreme though, because of the "thing" that I noticed during its review ( check my previous post ).
