Title: BIOS update for 790FXT-UD5P for Thurban support in the works?
Post by: Lost on April 26, 2010, 01:58:53 pm
Was wondering whether there will be anymore BIOS updates to this board to enable support for soon to be released 6 core AMD CPUs.
The 790FXTA-UD5 has an update and I feel this board is being ignored

I would like to know this too. I assume since the latest available bios F8C is marked as beta which itself added CPU IDs (according to cpu list (http://www.giga-byte.co.uk/Support/Motherboard/CPUSupport_Model.aspx?ProductID=3005)) there will be one more for the x6 Phenoms?

Got the following reply from GigaByte support:

Our validation dept. will arrange to test it. Please keep check on Gigabyte CPU Support List for udpates. Thanks

So maybe the new AGESA 3.7.0.0 BIOS will be what supports the x6 Phenoms.

Ah, they changed the description to highlight the fact. (I didn't say that a couple of days ago when the F8H bios appeared initially.)
