Hi Tom and Niklas, What about the DB_PORT programming header? Is the dual BIOS stored on the MX25L1606EM2I-12G chip? I'm not interested in USB3 that much although it's a nice and useful feature but it seems to be a very good board in general. Marek On 16.4.2011, at 11:12, Tom Sylla

Hi Marek, When I first got the board, I checked the signals of the DB_PORT header with a meter, and found several connections going to the Super I/O instead of the flash chip. I was thinking it might be a serial port header of some non standard pinout instead of a SPI header. It would be good to

Hi Marek, did you have any luck in finding any other AMD USB3 motherboard? Are you mostly interested that it supports USB3? -- Niklas Cholmkvist Public GPG/PGP key block ID: 1024D/C09E670B Fingerprint: 8487 ECE3 8ED9 870B BB56 95E7 9AD2 946A C09E 670B Key download:

Hi Marek, I do own this board, and it is probably one of the more painful to get ported. There is no SPI header, no serial port, and it has the gigabyte dual-BIOS mechanism to deal with. I also have an MSI e350 mini-ITX board, without any of those problems, and maybe someday I will try to make a
