I can confirm that Dell does not support it at this time.
They might but the 720 while a 680i based system is not a standard nvidia design so it may not.
Just hold off doing anything until Dell releases a BIOS to support them.

All,
I jumped the gun on that one. The description does not specifically state what, "Added support for new processors", means...

Chris amened the statement to show that it was GO stepping CPU's on the 1066MHz bus that were added on that BIOS.

No. Chris just edited the post The original post SAY : New BIOS support new processors with 1333Mhz FSB - Yes he did say NEW PROCESSORS WITH 1333MHZ FSB and he did not mention E6850 or QX6850
