You can find the new final version here (1.013):

Anybody tried it? What differences?
 
Any idea what had been fixed/broken or added? I installed the update no
noticeable changes.
 
i updated also using asusupdate - during the verify it locked up - i needed
to hard reset, but the bios displayed 1013 and everything *seemed* normal

I'm now on 1013, but honestly I haven't really noticed any difference
between this new version and 1011. But then again, I didn't notice any
difference when I flashed up to 1011 from 1010. Regardless,
everything seems to be working fine at the moment.

What does concern me though is that after downloading and applying
1013(via AsusUpdate) it now appears that Asus has withdrawn that
version from their web site. Earlier in the week, it was listed as an
official BIOS release, and available for download. Today however, it
is no longer listed. This makes me worry now that maybe I shouldn't
have applied this new version. I'm wondering if they've found some
issues with it an have subsequently withdrawn it. (Just in case, is
it possible to flash in an earlier version?)

This bios (1013) only make your mb compatible with the new Extreme
processor. Nothing else seems to be fixed.
If your machine works without problems , let it bee. If not you can flash it
back to 1011 or whatever you like.
