Well, not sure how much info to cover, but will try. The Asus A7V detects my 1.1 as 1.0, always has from the first boot. It seems stable running at 1.0. Even there page says 500 mhz - 1.0, but I know someone who placed there 1.1 in and it detected and ran fine. Heres a bunch of thoughts and what I have done, hopefully someone else has had experience with this:
On original boot, it was locking up the bios, it got too hot. Fixed that.
Tried both bios revisions.
Was able to manually set it to 1.1 in jumperless mode, but tends to lock up occasionally.
Tried to clear the cmos by shorting the solder points as per manual, no luck. I did this because it says in the manual that it goes into a "safe mode" if bios locks. I have chosen default settings, etc, but doesent seem any different.
Temperature is at about 125 degrees on average.
Read the manual, read it again, and again and skimmed section after that.
Searched this forum and a few other sites I saw mentioned here.
Pulled out some of my hair.
