GIGABYTE latest / beta BIOS for Intel CPU motherboards
diegochiappetta:
Hi Everybody
I have a GA H110M-H DDR3 mobo with BIOS version F3. I need to use a Intel i5 7400, but i 'm having errors during the update to F20 BIOS version. I receive a message "Image BIOS Error", but i download the BIOS file in the Gigabyte page.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks a lot!

Second limitation is BIOS chip size .

Hi Guys,
I managed to get my hands on a brand new Rev 1.0 P965-DQ6 for a retro build and was trying to find the beta bios F12j for it as it allows unofficial support for the 45nm cpu's . If anyone knows if any other biose's , even official bios allows the use of 45nm on this board i would be grateful for a link to them if possible. i have a X5470 Xeon i want to put in and push it to over 4ghz wwhich the chip is easily capable of.
many thanks
Gordy!

Greetings,
Good questions, simple answer.
While hardware can always be a mitigating factor, the decision was likely due to which board was selling better or was anticipated to have more longevity.
