    whether or not in games it will make a diff is another story, maybe 1/2-1 fps.

    I think the 0701 bios is a little better performance wise for 3d, I ran the tests a few times and they were consistent.

    Seems the 0308 is a little better for memory performance.

    I've got no strings to hold me down.
    To make me fret, or make me frown.
    I had strings but now I'm free.
    There are no strings on me

    I am currently in the process of learning how Asus packages there bios modules(the units that make up the rom file), Aiming for a four phase project: extract, interpret, modify, and repack for use. Currently i have the tools to extract the modules, and I am currently in the process of interpreting the information...

    I know that it is possible to use customized bios files with any given motherboard as i have used several with board back in the day, I just never spent the time to see how they(the coders)compiled them...
