But can we be sure that the enabled IOMMU is usable for the Athlon 7xx and 8xx series az well?
I think, the only way to confirm is for someone to find a dirt cheap Athlon and put it there. However, with the current prices for the used CPUs which are really affordable, there's really no excuse to put anything worse than A10/A8 to this wonderful board.
Someone could have an Athlon with a dedicated VGA, which we might not change for an A8 or A10, and not everybody wants to use the IGP even if he has an A-series. FM2 APU/CPUs became rarer every day, but I'll try to find an Athlon as well :)

Just to clarify, do you mean that - even if set to 1.5V, the RAM voltage is 1. […]
Exactely, but I couldn't even see anything higher than 1333Mhz on my old F2A85-M.
