Always a good thing. Only thing I find disappointing is 'optimized' but no clarification on what that amounts to.

I'm a little miffed. Despite being released first AM5 Epyc not listed as compatible, PRO cpus are listed but likely OEM only again, and no ECC listed on the QVL still. I guess I'm going to have to go 7000 or 9000 series and take a gamble on compatibility again. I've also noticed ram compatibility has been updated to 256GB which is interesting since no 64GB dimms show up on the QVL.

What do you want with this long outdated version?
Ryzen 7000 is slowed down even more this was only fixed again with Agesa 1.2.0.0a Patch AB(C)!
By the way, AGESA 1.2.0.1 is the latest version thanks to the big gap in the SMM system. For Ryzen 7000 it is absolutely nonsensical to open anything under 1.2.0.0a Patch AB(C). And with the new gap you should really step on the gas anyway. The new Final AGESA 1.2.0.1 has been released by AMD 3 days ago!
