Hey there,
I've noticed that a the new BIOS has came out. Anyone has comments?

I'm curious what is it for but I'm too afraid to update my bios after the last one almost brick my machine.

Just out of curiosity did you re paste your cpu? Does it throttle when it reach 86C? Mine does and the only way to rectify it is to undervolt by 80mV and underclock my CPU to 3.2 GHz instead of the default 3.4 GHz.

The BIOS will improve AGA performance and nothing else.

I tried bios A08 on AW15 R1. Looks like the same bios as AW17R2.
Anyone notice that FN + F1 doesn't toggle Graphics Amplifier switching any more if its plugged in? Ever since I installed the bios it stopped working. Reinstalled AW command center and GA software, and it won't work any more. If I click the button on the GA cable connector, that doesn't trigger anything either. -
Since the changelog only stated "Graphics Amplifier behavior enhancement.", I will like to know how much performance improvement for AGA. Could anybody test that out?
