GA-990FXA-UD7 - Rev. 1.1 available?

[johnhc]

I am planning an upgrade to my current machine with an FX series processor and want to use the GA-990FXA-UD7 MB.  Research finds that the Vdroop problem is dealt with by implementing Load Line Control (LLC) in Rev 1.1 and BIOS F6.
This raises a couple of questions:  Have any users received this revision?  If so, where was it obtained?  Newegg will not guarantee a product revision.
The latest release of CPU magazine reviews this board and several others and says they could not get it to work with the F6 BIOS (and FX-8150).  Anyone seen this?
Thanks and enjoy, John.

Got a reply from a GA inquiry of "North America should not have any rev 1.1 of the UD7 boards currently as we never received any".  I am not sure I am willing to wait.  If anyone has any other information of USA availability of the GA-990FXA-UD7 - Rev. 1.1, please let me know.  Thanks and enjoy, John.

John, I would wait till someone on the egg posted they actually got a rev. 1.1 and that they bought it from newegg. By the check by there id you will know they bought it there. Then again if you want to chance it newegg will let you return it, myself i would tend to listen to gigabyte support. If they havent gotten any that means if you have to rma it then you would get a rev. 1.0 back for it so be patient.

@ autotech
I don't like being called a liar.

I bought mine about two months ago.

If he waits till people post on newegg that they are getting rev 1.1 then that means there is more of a chance that they have ran out of rev 1.

If he gets a rev 1.1 and gigabyte support in usa hasnt gotten any and say his board goes out 3 months later and they still havent gotten any then they will send him a rev 1 back for the rma.

There are only 5 reviews in the last two months on newegg and not one of them have posted what revision they have gotten.

Last review to mention revison was 8/11

Now for the end of it i am here to help original poster get the help he asked for period and to offer the best advice to him in his situation.
And i did also mention newegg would let him return it if he wanted to try  it and he got a rev 1.

Here it is a few days later and still no owner reviews on neweggs site yet johnhc. I was hoping the other poster thexfile would take the hint and go post a owner review on neweggs site since he said he bought it there but no such luck. I will keep looking till i see one posted there and when i do i will post bcak here. As for kdidp i dont trust that post as his date and time set on his computer is totally off says he posted in your thread in jan of 2012 which we both know isnt possiable. So i guess we will keep waiting.

Thank you so much Xfile. That review will be a HUGE help to those that are wondering about revisions. There you go johnhc it is verified so you can rest assured that newegg has them in stock and if so wont be long before gigabyte usa has them in stock for RMA's if needed. That is what makes this forum so great is the people willing to help each other with positive results. Karma added to Xfile for helping you out.
