Sorry, I'm quite new to all this, so please excuse if that's already discussed at length before, I just seem to fail to find the right answers.

So the question is which 2011 motherboard doesn't need a Bios update to run the 4930?? Only the ASUS Deluxe? I don't OC so any recommendations would be more than welcome!

Thanks a lot!

Well, it is my understanding that I need to have a SB-E CPU to do that, please correct me if I'm wrong here. Since I haven't got that it seems a bit like a pita to solve that. Didn't really understand that USB updating though, do I need a CPU for that? I'd tend to the MSI board if I don't.

Ok, great that was what I wanted to hear I guess. Read about the MSI GD45 PLUS board which claims to support 4xxx natively, but even that's not totally convincing (i.e. reseller could sell older boards without updated BIOS). I'll have a look at ASUS boards featuring flashback then. THX!
