Bios Updates for IOMMU / VT-d support on Rampage IV Black Edition

[sixtyeightmk2]

Hello,

Is there any way to get on a Beta testing list for this? I have a system with about 64GB of ram and two GPUs - had wanted to test Grid support but now find that with a 4960X CPU I am unable to do any sort of IOMMU operations, or PCI passthrough.

Thanks,
Bob

Would be the best board for Nvidia Grid support if this could be fixed asap.

Thanks for the bios update ASUS!
