We still encourage the 'if it's not broke, don't fix it' though. You should see no change in the way it functions or performs. Upgrading the GPU now in preparation will still allow it to fall-back to legacy mode on your ASUS motherboard for the time being. So, it's a Hybrid BIOS? Does that mean if I plan to upgrade my motherboard and OS to Win 8 later I can still update my GPU BIOS now?Īs long as you own an ASUS board, sure. THE SOFTWARE WILL CHECK IF YOUR BOARD IS COMPATIBLE.ĭespite others being 'UEFI' boards (P67, Z68 etc) they are not compatible with Win 8 Fast Boot even after you update to GOP UEFI on your graphics card. Intel X79 Series updated to Win8 BIOS (3xxx) Only these motherboards listed below support Win 8 Fast Boot, due to a major, ground-up re-write to make the UEFI spec compatible with the Win function (this doesn't just affect ASUS motherboards FYI). What factors do you need to get Win 8 Fast Boot running? If you want to use Win 8 Fast Boot, then yet, otherwise no. * (If you intend to sell-on your card to fund a future upgrade, since you can't flash back, remember this decision affects the next person you sell to)

The software checks if your motherboard is compatible. Other motherboards might work with our UEFI graphics cards but we cannot officially endorse compatibility as we don't have access to all BIOS and board revisions. * We are only able to qualify its use ASUS motherboards: that includes those with UEFI BIOS' and those with older legacy BIOS' (we've checked on boards up to ~4 years ago). It includes the legacy one as well as the UEFI one. HOWEVER, the new GOP UEFI BIOS is actually a Hybrid BIOS. * You will be UNABLE to flash back to the original legacy-only BIOS.
