Awesome!!! I'd love to get my hands on that BIOS! Did they provide you with a list of changes? I'm hoping for some other improvements than just the updated Option ROM. Perhaps they rushed out 1207 for the R3E so that ethusiasts like us could have the fixes below ASAP:
Rampage III Extreme 1207 BIOS
1. Improved DRAM compatibility
2. Fixed S3 resume fail when USB 3.0 controller was disabled
3. Fix incorrect CPU temperature may display in BIOS setup menu when the temperature is under 0 degree
4. Support GPU tweakit function
From what I've read, people here have updated the Marvell BIOS using tools like mmtool. I haven't tried it personally because I don't use the Marvel controller. The main issue was the Intel Option ROM, it was in a smaller package than what was available for the newer revision and thus could not "fit" in the Asus BIOS. I know you shouldn't have to do this, but at least they fixed the part that we couldn't!
FYI, there is also an updated R2G BIOS. Not that they have made many changes:
Rampage II Gene 1501 BIOS
Fix sometimes system may suddently power on if AC Power on then off for several times
