    New Asus P5W DH bios 903

    http://wiki.p5wdh.de/doku.php?id=downloads:bios

    I'm using it. Seems nice! System starts up really quick now and changes in the bios are faster too.

    yeah i know. But i love it! Always loved using beta drivers for my nvidia card and as long as they're stable and quick and this bios feels faster and more responsive as a whole and in windows. Very nice indeed

    At least they are showing interest in trying to fix any bugs, the more the better

    mind you it's not starting up instantly and still does it's shutoff thing but my monitor comes out of standby much quicker then before. Yeah i like it so far! Running different applications in windows "feels" smoother and less laggy. Hard to describe but yeah

    How I test the way a bios is because I'm a hardcore multiplayer gamer (usually always on top in Fear + bf2 etc). so I test each game to see if gameplay is more responsive and i can just "feel" how it's performing. Don't bench as what may be higher frames doesn't always equate to better responsiveness in game etc.

    Also take out my music production apps and Traktor and see how it feels as I dj live and need my system stable AND quick! :p

    i havent yet seen any performance increases, but i noticed:

    - overclocking profiles (new to me, but i understand they go in and out)
    - fan control seems fixed (silent was never really ever silent, fan just jumped all over the place, now it is!)

    ok..

    I now can add with each new one such readme file

    " Support new CPUs. Please refer to our website at: http://support.asus.com.tw/cpusupport/cpusupport.aspx "

    Intel should do the same

    "Support new asus bioss. Please refer to our website at: http://support.intel.com./biossupport/biossupport.aspx "

    Thanx so much asus for your deluxe products which give their owners lot of extras ( bios ) ...

    I have the same problem with 0903 as I did with 0901. A few seconds after bootup, AiBooster does not report the correct FSB. I did not have this problem with 0801.

    maybe the problems with 1.6875v and 1.700v vcore BIOS selections have been fixed...i'll give this BIOS a shot too later this evening.

    Hmm, 903 is probably not based on 801, but 901. It seems there are two different bios people working on these. the beta ones seem more home made. Anyone know their source?

    AP2 works for me on 0801 but CPU temps go to 256C occasionally and then back to 34C... too erratic so stopped using it for now.
