in reply to a question about the release of 0311
I was a little late checking my yahoo mail, anyway Stuart, I revieved an email from Gary Key from Anandtech, he told me nothing funny was going on at the time they released the bios before DH was given permission to do so, Anandtech have a good working relationship with Asus, and were given permission by them to post the bios at the time they did.
Although it seems irrelevant and is straight over my head and most probably yours, a lot of people read this thread, I suppose it should be clear that nothing was done by Anantech without the prior consent of Asus.
The only issue at the time, and still as we speak is the squealing memory, as luck would have it (for people like me), anandtech's moboard suffers from the issue too. They have found that the corsair module's they have, make the noise, they also tried some mushkins and they don't make the noise. Whether or not Asus will follow up on this at this point is still in question, we'll have to wait and see, until the official release.
Gary's exhausted at the moment and is not posting on the website as he'll probably get bogged with questions.
No offence intended from any party ofcourse, I think it needed to be cleared up, so that no-one gets the wrong impression of Anandtech's ethics.
BTW I offer my sincere gratitude to Anandtech and Driverheaven for their support, we could not have achieved this without them. I look forwards to their reviews in the future, I think we have all learned something from this, and are hopefully wiser for it............
Secondly I thank Stuart for suggesting the contact of Anandtech in the first place, we have achieved quite a lot this week, I've never known such a fast turn around........
