It was noted on the 2nd page of Wesley Fink's article "AMD Motherboards: Processor Support" that X2 processors now were capable of DDR 433/466/500 speeds with a simple Bios update.

" It should also be mentioned that AMD has implemented a hidden feature in Revision E processors, namely additional memory ratios that can be implemented in BIOS. We saw a Revision E chip mounted on the Abit Fatal1ty AN8 motherboard. Adding the new processor gave the additional options of 433, 466, and 500 to the available memory ratios. This has to be coded in the BIOS to be available, but the new asynchronous ratios are a feature of the Revision E Memory Controller. "

Is anyone aware of what motherboards currenty have bios revisions, which support these speeds besides the ABIT Fatality board?

Your not the only one waiting for information....id like to know a list of Motherboards and bios versions that support the X2 CPU´s. Guess the X2 owners are to busy presenting their machines at the CPU section.
