F11 is out - adding VRM MOS protection. Anybody knows what it is plz?

Most likely it will cut/decrease voltage to the VRM's and mosfets when heat/load become too much.

It means - to keep your mobo away from the trash bin if it the CPU decides to draw WAY too much power.
Or something like that.

F11? is that a diagnostic code? I mean is there a Diagnostic LED display on the board itself?

thx for the headsup, wish people would be a lil more specific on such stuff. N I forgot This is a board series that doesnt have the address space for UEFI.

Exactly why I am using a mobo from this series - UEFI is a no-no for me ;]

its simple actually, just a GUI mask for BIOS, a lil more options of tweaking a board are available thx to higher level of address space in the chip too
