I wish ASUS would just publish these things directly. Put them behind disclaimers if need be, make us login to a beta site to get them, just let us get them from a more verifiable source. Downloading them from a random Google Drive that's owned by a GMail account just doesn't make it easy to determine that they are legit. I think they probably are fine, but this is something I'd much rather verify properly that it's an official ASUS file before taking a risk.

Been using it for about a week and no issues whatsoever... So if any consolation, I was the guinee pig ... Was a bit apprehensive but read replies of users there that had flashed them already and went for it...:p 😛96662

Safedisk is as Asus employee who has been posting beta BIOS's to Overcock.net for the last few years. If he releases it on the OC.net forum (which he did), then I feel OK about installing it. I am going to install it today and will report back if I have any trouble.

Notice any difference? Gaming or overall performance gains? I've been stable on 3601 for a while, it's tough to give up perfect stability unless there's some real gains to be had.

Runs well... From what I've read its a security update

Do you know if this AGESA is going to be available for B550?
