I have been there but new BIOS. I wrote to eSupport, they quoted me US$24.85 for a new BIOS. Is there anywhere else?

I have not tried. I will visit the site to check it out. BTW, it is safe to try the beta version? My current BIOS does not allow overclocking. That's what makes me unhappy about the board.
