When you get a newly released motherboard you will need to keep checking their website for new drivers and BIOS versions. These usually will update with new ones fairly often at first. When they get feedback on issues they will fix them with new drivers and new BIOS.
The Gigabyte motherboard site will always list the motherboard versions alternatives at the top center:
GA-Z77X-UD3H (rev. 1.0) - indicates no other versions are available
GA-Z68XP-UD3 (rev. 1.3) - when more than one version link is listed there are new versions available
other version : rev. 1.0 - all other versions of the motherboard will be listed (with links) under the current listing.
All motherboards seem to ship with older BIOS versions, check the change logs or Description to see if a new version may help your issue.
'Improve system compatibility' is a general statement but usually means there are several known issues that have been fixed.
My impression when they don't list previous BIOS versions is that they are faulty and not recommended. Most motherboard BIOS lists are quite long, when older ones are missing it makes me think they are very suspect.

Pci Communication Controller Driver Download
The only driver that is missing is the PCI Simple Communications Controller, and I can't seem to find it anywhere. I'm running the Intel G965 motherboard 1066MHz FSB, Core 2 Duo E6300 Processor.
