I am using BIOS J51 v01.35 on which version is on intel TM i5


My system is Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2500 CPU @ 3.30GHz

and bios is version J51 v01.35

release data of bios 01/10/2012

So Should I believe I am using SMBIOS 2 or SMBios 3

On wiki.Osdev there are no docs for version 3 but there are for version 2 for SMBIOS
