New P5B Deluxe Beta bios or official ?

[imported_Buckster]

spotted this on the official FTP site - is it a beta or the new official ?

0614 ..

More than likely official. They don't put betas up on their site as far as I know. I also see theres a new P5B vanilla bios.

Hmm nice.

That'd indicate the 0614 is official.

Yea, it's the same checksum as the 0614 already floating around.

on main HTTP site now too - so def. official.

Seems a good-un to me - perhaps this is the catch-up for the E6600s ...

before >332fsb was a no no at 1:1, at >335 couldn't get above 1 min prime stable, even with Vcore at 1.45, VNorthbridge up, memory to 2V etc.

Now with new bios, just completed 20 mins of 336 fsb, at 1:1, with Vcore at 1.38V, memory at 1.9V, and everything else at auto

I'm pleased.

Mark.
