Bingo13: GOOD JOB

This BIOS is much better than the previous release. Runs X6 pretty well (see attached). Here are some issues I found:

1. TRAS settings under DRAM config - only option is 'AUTO'.
2. FSB Frequency capped at 250, will not run 1Mhz over this
3. This chip is capable of 4Ghz but not stable beyond 3.8Ghz at the same vcore (1.4v). See HERE
4. No option in bios to turnoff turbo core
5. Intermittent downclock on idle to 200X4 = 800Mhz and vcore drop to 1.18with CNQ/C1E and Downcore all disabled (not able to reproduce this consistently).

I think this BIOS is pretty close. If you can add the turbo core option and tweak the overclocking on Thubans we have a winner. Great job by your Bios team
