Any NF7-S Ver2 Modded BIOS Benches?

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.abit (More info?)

I don't think you would see any improvement if your running at the same
clock speed.
The modded BIOS's 'may' let you run a higher FSB, which in turn could
improve performance but this really depends on your hardware, not all
systems will run sky high FSBs even with tweaked BIOS's.
As long as the BIOS's have been well tested there should be no more risk in
flashing than with an official BIOS.

Ok....but have you seen any benefit from these non-factory bioses?
Specifically, can you reach a higher fsb than you could before?

I couldn't get beyond about 218 with the "official" BIOS but with TicTac's
modded it would then do 229/230 (& yes, Prime stable).
