    There is no "2011" bios for the M4A79 either
    The one they released this year is an old one from 08/2010, so it seems to be the AM2+ version of the bios they released for the M4A79T on 09/2010.

    They might have uploaded that bios this year, but its from 2010!



    as you can see 3702 isn't newer than the latest bios for the M4A79T

    Is there something wrong with the bios?
    If there is nothing major needed for it, then why waste resources on it.

    Maybe to keep the promises that bingo13 made for almost 9 month already?
    The changes for voltage stabilization etc?
    At least he could just say that they won't keep what they've promised instead of telling us again and again that there will be something very soon

    But maybe they really just wait until they can say
    "Sorry that board is too old, we won't support it anymore"

    just because it says august doesn't somebody didn't edit it in 2011

    and since it was released in 2011 it is a 2011 BIOS

    I believe those dates are dates the BIOS was validated(?), maybe it is an early beta or something that hasn't been validated since. For example the most recent BIOS for the M4A89TD Pro/USB is 1101 released sometime in January this year and dated December in CPU-Z

    yes, but in fact it is the "same" bios that the M4A79T already got in 09/2010, it just took them longer to release it for the M4A79.
    The M4A79 didn't have a bios in 09/2010 and the previous one was released in 06/2010.
    Both are still waiting for the bios that fixes some issues with Thuban and give more voltage stability

    if you think voltage stability with thuban is bad, plop an athlon 2 X2 in the and see a .06-.1 over volt compared to a .03-.04 on thuban
