nf7-s v2.0 bios update

[Binox]

hello, i was wondering, does anyone think it would be possible to flash my nf7-s v2.0 motherboard with the new nf7-s2 bios?
i figure it's the same motherboard...
but also would there be any advantage? it might have some extra stuff maybe...

You figured wrong.

Don't do it.

The S2 is a different MB, with a different MCP chip, that omits some of the deluxe features of the NF7-S, and adds little to replace those. They have a much less amenable BIOS for OverClocking purposes for just one thing. For another, in my own experience, with an -S2G, it was unreliable and unstable, had to be RMA'd.

Totally. This would be a huge mistake. IIRC, Abit even posts warnings about flashing boards with the wrong BIOS codes.
