Asus has released an optional BIOS update that provides Graphics Output Protocol (GOP) and UEFI support for its GeForce GTX 680 graphics cards that will allow users to make full use of Windows 8's Fast Boot feature.
Richard Swinburne (MarshallR@ASUS (opens in new tab)) further notes in the ROG forums that users should not upgrade unless they want to use Windows 8 Fast Boot and that while it may work with other motherboards, Asus can only endorse compatibility with Asus motherboards.
Since graphics cards and motherboards that provide UEFI support are still relatively uncommon, we're quite excited for the release of this BIOS upgrade, which can be downloaded from Asus' WebStorage page.
