Very true but it looks like the GA 970A D3P is a rather new board since it only has one bios version. This means that it was introduced recently so there has not been any necessary changes yet. I am guess that the other board has been around for a few years so new boards shipped with newer bioses = new revision.

Hope this made sense! Good luck with your motherboard.

Revision number does not really matter. It is only needed when minor changes are needed to be made. In this case, I will choose the GA 970A D3P mainly because it has the VRM heatsinks which will help a lot to prevent overheating VRMs.
