I have a Gigabyte 970a -U3DP Rev 1.0. Its been 2 years and the newest bios is still on beta. I was wondering if I can flash it with a Gigabyte - U3DP Rev 2.x bios since they're kinda the same just that Rev 2.x got on board audio update.

+1 that may be the only difference, however all you need is for them to maybe have changed one other chip in the chipset of that board for your BIOS flash to completely brick it.

This has bad idea written all over it.
