Question about BIOS 0066 Update for DZ77GA-70K board...

Hi,

 

Could someone from INTEL tell me what "updated processor support" means in the BIOS 0066 RELEASE NOTES?  If it is a major revision to the processor microcode (e.g., update C3/C6 stepping), then I will attempt to upgrade my BIOS from 0060 to 0066.  Otherwise, if it is minor, I will not take the risk due to issues already reported.

 

Intel should provide more details in their release notes so users can figure out if they need to upgrade.  For example, other vendors will tell you in their release notes exactly what changed in the processor microcode.  Right now, BIOS 0060 works perfectly in terms of all my connected hardware as well as XMP settings on 32G RAM (Corsair CMX32GX3M4A1600C11 running at 1600MHz).  When I tried moving to BIOS 0061/0063, the RAM XMP profile no longer worked.  The RAM is very touchy on this board as other memory sticks would not post (CORSAIR VENGENANCE) for 32G RAM config - use matched memory kits to save yourself some trouble.
