    Could this be true for the A7V?

    using the A7V133 bios on an A7V increases performance benchmarks.

      Hey Dave,

      Did you give the BIOS deal a whirl?

                      have a look at http://www.tweakmax.com/ towards the bottom of the page under new bios for A7V133 confirming this finding for A7V.

                      wussie eh!

                        I'm not a wussie! I have an A7V133, so flashing with the correct BIOS wouldn't be a proper demonstration of my manhood.

                        I have to go. I'm going to hold my hand under a flame. Then I'm going to go next door and get into a fist fight with the neighbor's wife.
