Title: GA-Z170X-Gaming 7 BIOS latest F7g is in beta for 3 months now!
Post by: testic on March 18, 2016, 01:37:31 pm
Just curious if this board is forgotten or there is a chance for final BIOS revision?! Because I had previous experience with other board manufacturers - after beta they just leaves bios in that state and forgot about it after a while!  >:(
I bought Gigabyte because I was hoping this is not the case with their boards... :(

The thing is it is a beta, but maybe they are waiting on some more info or problems from people before they go on. Bios updates are only there if you are having a problem. If you are not having a problem you don't need to update.

My motherboard bios has been beta since 2014 and another one since 2010. I think this is the norm with Gigabyte:

I too am waiting for a final BIOS revision.  They had been updating the BIOS about every month and then... nothing.  I'm still running on F5 and I want the Prime95 fix, but am reluctant when it comes to beta BIOS versions.
