T7600 Bios A17 fixes list?
Hi all, I have built a gaming capable system based on a T7600, it has 16GB of RAM and a new EVGA GeForce GTX1070 SuperClock edition GPU with 8GB of VRAM and plays the latest titles such as The Last Of Us for PC at Ultimate level, (running 1920x1080 @ 60fps) and I am very happy with it. I updated it to BIOS A17 from A05 and all went well, my question is what has the jump to A17 enabled or given me in terms of hardware support if anyone knows?
Does it now support different CPU clocks or Xeon models, non-ECC RAM (I expect not) and other enhancements like fast-boot perhaps? If someone has a list of changes or fixes between A05 and A17 then I would be grateful of they can share it.
It works well, typical Dell quality and with the new graphics card it's a flyer. Building the shaders in TLOU before it could be played, took 20 mins, I have seen people get build times of 4 hours on other forums doing this with other machines.
Just looking to see if any hardware support has been improved with the latest BIOS that I am not aware of.
Thanks.

Dell usually posts the generic descriptions of fixes and enhancements. BIOS A17 is an accumulative for all previous version without a change log.
To learn of all fixes and enhancements, one must go through each version and compiling a chart for each BIOS version in order to see the capability and functionality of current version A17.
If interest to know, you may start here and scroll down to Other Available Versions, expanding each older BIOS version and taking notes of fixes and enhancements. When complete, you will have a map of change log with all fixes and enhancements.
