I own both boards - both do work, BUT there are still bugs:
USB3 and built-in NIC do not work on either by default.
Memory is only reported as roughly 512mb at this point.
You're welcome to help. :)
As far as your other question... I'm not sure what you mean...
USB3 is a physically different connector, with a different pinout
entirely, although it does retain backward compatibility with USB2. See
http://www.addonics.com/emerging_technologies/usb3_tutorial.asp
If you're referring to the bios chips themselves, they're DIP8s -- both
the USB3 and the regular E350M1 use the same kind of chip, but the
BIOSes themselves do differ.
Hopefully this helps.
Thanks!

Dear coreboot folks,
looking at the offers there are two models ASRock E350M1 [1] and ASRock
E350M1/USB3 [2] where the second one cost about 10 € more.
Does coreboot run on both boards?
OT: Does anyone know if there are different chips or plugs/ports used
for the ASRock E350M1/USB3 or is that a software/BIOS limitation?
Thanks,
Paul
