I have a DS3R ver. 2.1 (displayed on mobo box). I went to the Gigabyte website and on that specific support page (for DS3R ver. 2.1), the BIOS versions illustrated are F10, F11 and F12f (a beta).
I have a two part question:
1) Which BIOS should I use? Is the F12f bios safe enough yet or is there any issues? I suppose the best choices are F11 or the F12f beta.
2) When I boot up my computer, the screen displays P35-DS3R F2. F2?!? Isn't this the very first BIOS put out for the DS3R board? Why is it displaying this on a rev. 2.1 board? Am I missing something here? Do all the revisions start at F2 and you have to update/flash them to whatever one you choose? I'm confused. I thought the revisions '2.0' and below started at F2. Also, this is not a typo, the bios on the screen shows F2. On the box, it is definitely ver. 2.1.
Please explain if you know or realize/recognize what's going on?
Should I just update my bios to F11 or F12f and not be concerned?
Thanks.
