I'm glad we can retire this thread now though I would like to know how they got the new ROM in still...I think it would help for future updates if ever necessary.

Not 100% dead, the new bios is using a Pheonix AHCI rom, a newer one but still not Intel's.
 
Wonder why Intel's AHCI rom want in there and if it would work 100% of the time when manually swapped in.
I'm assuming it will be the same issue as before, if not they probably would of used it instead of a newer Pheonix one that probably required no modifications.

Fair enough...I actually do not know why they did not go the Intel route...when I have time I will try a few mods related to this BIOS.

Its weird, the rom works, but if I had to guess, it communicates slightly differently with the bios then the Phoenix one, which is why it cant be controlled from it and doesn't pass back drive info.

It's great that we have the new RAID ROM now, but the issue that I'm seeing is that, since they had to customize it, we're gonna be at EVGA's mercy again when it comes to updating to a newer version down the road. And since EVGA didn't do the customization, but rather Intel and Award, it's gonna be even harder to get a hold of. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

All good points indeed... Hey where did you get that eVGA did not do the customization? Just wondering...

I really don't care any more. I will live with this BIOS and upgrade or side-grade. Too much energy spent on this.

So any chance we'll get 11.5.0.1111 on the new X58 BIOS 83?

EVGA boards have always been good to me for the most part, but I have to say, the lack of BIOS updates might just spur me to another company's board next upgrade...   Shame they can't update their stuff...

Yeah, my next build won't be EVGA anymore due to these problems and incompetency. I think EVGA will be the next Abit.

Don't get me wrong; I love EVGA products, but due to lack of bios updates (firmwares), I really have to make a decision to switch.

Also it seems with the X79 chipset, EVGA is lacking behind. Oh well...

Attn Dejanh,
 
Was wondering which one of your modded bioses are best for a 759? On bios 82 right now with a single SSD, and four drive raid 5 array. Would there be a benefit to upgrade to your bios? Anyone else try this bios successfully?
 
Thanks
