The best person for info would likely be ShrimpBrine, He has one and I know he wishes he would have had the R2.0, aside from that I don't know the particulars.

Mr. Scott,
Would there be any way of making your modded bios available to other overclockers who have the later revisions of the Sabertooth? Problems with the later revisions of that board connected with the newer bioses has been lingering for months now. And how did you get your modded bios to install? Apparently many are running into roadblocks trying to install older bioses on Asus motherboards. I'm sure a step by step tutorial would be appreciated.
No magic here. I had no issue at all.
Mr. Scott, you do have to use AFUDOS engineering version though to flash backwards on the Rev 1.0 of the Sabertooth 990FX? Am I correct in that assumption? Just as an FYI. No that would be FTI. Hehehe.
RGone...
I am just basically looking for a better board than a Rev. 1.1 GA-990FXA-UD3 to pop a 8320 in for daily use. I have been looking on eBay for R2 boards. There are plenty of them but the prices are close to what I can buy a new R2 from Newegg for. There are lots of the original boards for sale but I don't know anything about them versus the R2. So any input would be appreciated. I want to get something but don't want to regret my purchase.

Version 1003 [color=red][size=3]This was and probably still is my most favorite bios for overclocking my FX 8 core processors to date. What you enter in the bios and the expected result just seems more/most accurate to me and why I never have run the later bioses after hearing from others whom have. It is not an etched in stone type of do or not do, but I and others just find the earlier bioses easier to adjust, I guess is how it is most easily described.[/color][/size]

Being that I bench this board competitively, my own bios is off the table. However, the 1102 bios is what it's based off of and for the average user/overclocker it will be fine. As for flashing, I had no issue using going from the most current bios (1604) to the 1102 or my own. This should not be a problem at all.
If somebody needs help with that, I have no problem helping, but honestly, it's pretty much a no brainer if you've ever flashed a bios before.
What I'm saying in a nutshell is, if you have a revision 1 board, you should be using the 1102 bios. It's the best one provided. I've tried them all.
