Got an interesting PM from someone who works at the company who makes the bios. Check this out.

I was interested if yall plan on doing any updates for the board in order to have high vcores? This would be great if yall would. Also, the vdimm voltage is only like high and normal or something like that. Is there going to be a change to a numerical version? Just interested I have downloaded the newest ULI drivers and the 1.21 bios for the board. I cant wait to get the board in. I also ordered a 3200+ venice E6. I plan on doing some serious overclocking. Got a danger den setup, only way I can do that is with higher vcores. Congrats guys, this is the best board I have seen in awhile, the upgrade paths are incredible. I will send you an email as well aceman, thanks for the hard work.

Hi.......Nice to hear that U are using our board.......This was our first try with AMD processors and the desktop segment.............till now we designed BIOS only for server segments and of course basically for Intel processors.
I am really sorry as far as the overclocking options are conserned for higher Vcores i don't think it is in the futuer patch( as matter of fact it depends on a bit on the client..........we write BIOS only according to the clients req and the build quality of the board,such voltage causes some bad side effects),but one has to win a lottery to buy a Fx-57.........i myself saw those only on the company..never allowed me take it to my home
Regarding VDIMM, the bios needs a lot of coding to properly display the current voltage but then it is in work, have mailed some of friends regarding the up dates, will PM U as soon as I get them.These are actually part of a package called as IPMI (Intellegent Platform management interface) plus we have a package called as DxDiag........then again, it is what the client wants and not what we want and if he is not willing to spend money on these well........ . These IPMI , DxDiag are for the ecterme stuff..........strictly speaking these are actally server stuff comming to desktop segment ( expect a lot more Boards with AMI BIOS)
Regarding overclocking please wait for some more updates before trying your hands on it, we were actually surprised that client wanted all these options(Intel no body even touches the BIOS , oveclocking what on earth is that they will ask.
