Default M3A79-T Deluxe NEW 403 BIOS

ASUS has a new 403 BIOS out off their website.

ASUS download page

a new feature that i found cool was that whatever you change your Reference Clock to (i.e. 216), when you go to the memory sub-section and select a specific speed for the RAM, it'll show the correct effective RAM speed (i.e. 800MHz is displayed as 864MHz and 1066MHz is displayed as 1152MHz).

oh, and it fixes the display of 12v power... it reads correctly now.

- so that 10.3V i get in OCCT & other programs is incorrect? i thought the programs refer to the same sensors that bios reads...
