BIOS Fix Lists

[absic]

To get back to the original question regarding BIOS Updates.

The latest BIOS for the GA-890FXA-UD5 (rev 2.1) says:
1. Support new JM363 version
2. Fix Cool'n'Quiet compatibility

According to the motherboard schematic it actually uses the JM362



So, is there an error in the info for the BIOS update or is it addressing another issue? It would help if this was made clearer in the update info.

@absic - That's a different board.  The schematic for the GA-880GA-UD3H is not so unambiguous, unfortunately.  It simply labels that chip "GIGABYTE GSATA2".  So, their bad.  They should have stuck with the actual name for the chip in the fine manual.

@DM - I was looking at the very first sentence on each page, although I admit that one you quoted did give me pause.  But these two opening sentences seem clear enough, even if they do wander off into the darkness immediately after:

• "JMB362 is a single chip, 1-lane PCI Express to 2-port Serial ATA II Host Controller."

• "JMB363 is a single chip, one-lane PCI Express to two-port Serial ATA II and one-port PATA Host Controller."

Yes I do agree with the statements but the whole thing is a bit misleading.
