UEFI for H61 series
« on: February 19, 2012, 02:40:48 am »
I've seen that H67 series will support UEFI but didn't see anything for H61 while there're both new ???
Any idea?  :(

Hi and welcome.

I really wouldn't hold out much hope for either of these boards getting a makeover for the BIOS to update it to UEFI to be honest. It is always possible but I think that Gigabyte has more than enough to do to keep up with the latest boards and their new UEFI implimentation. I can't see any retrograde changes being made. Sorry. :-\

That's odd ex58!   Cheaper budget models have better BIOS than the more expensive USB3 models?
