GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

[euonline]

Re: Gigabyte Latest BIOS

Hi euonline,

i presume you mean HPET 64 bit?
if so, i have had that enabled since the day i purchased the UD5
i haven't actually noticed any difference enabled or disabled

GEST = EIST ?
i have no problems with EIST on F5e, but i've also never seen it drop the multiplier lower than 12

i've found one or two people with the same Event 12, Microsoft Windows HAL, errors, but no resolution or fixes so far
i've tried to adjust/loosen timings, dropped memory back to 1066, increased voltages, but nothing so far has stopped them appearing

Hi again,

Is not eist in bios, in the GEST and ET6 (gigabyte software)

*edit: I am using the 7000 version of windows 7. I will try to flash the F5e bios to see if I get the same problem.

Re: Gigabyte Latest BIOS

oic, my bad
i've never used the energy saving software before...
i've just installed the DES software, along with ET6.
so far cpu-z is reporting that the cpu is dropping as low as a x6 multi. but temps appear to be unchanged (realtemp/coretemp), even with all power saving options enabled and using "Level 3: Extreme Power Saving"
i'll leave it on for now and see how it affects things

Re: Gigabyte Latest BIOS

dangermoose,
Your memory Corsair XMS3-TR3X6G1333C9 voltage is up to 1.60V.
Assume,that you read 1.58V in BIOS,please use Everest to read voltage in Windows(should be less).

Everest is showing 1.58 also. Is this an issue?



cpu-z shows 1.5 here..

Re: Gigabyte Latest BIOS

That is fine for your ram, and do keep in mind you are overclocking it already to 1400Mhz and since it is 1333 CAS 9 ram you wont be able to lower it like I suggested. So you are all good I would say

Funny thing is that I can not make my vcore goes down with the DES or any other way, I do not even get the "saving options" on the program... does anyone have any idea why? I have EIST and C1E enabled on the bios.

Re: Gigabyte Latest BIOS

yeah, the only way to make that work on this board is by leaving vcore on auto in the bios - obviously not really a good idea while overclocking tho :(

Sad, in my older board this worked really good... it is a VERY GOOD option, vcore would droop as the multi, could get very cool temps in idle and also save some more W

* Maybe the GIGAMAN would like to add this option on a latter bios... lets hope so!

Re: Gigabyte Latest BIOS

Btw,updated with:

GA-EX58-Extreme - F6e

Where is GA-X48-DS4? F3A has been BETA since Sept 2008. I see BIOS updates for DS5, DQ6 (twice in the last 6 mos.) but still no DS4 update? Anybody?

Re: Gigabyte Latest BIOS

Hi prasrig,
welcome to TT Forum.
Regarding RAM voltage in BIOS and Everest,thats normal.You can also check in BIOS-"PC Health Status".

Some times when i switch on the temp pop up to 90-101c,without being the actual temp 100c(NEVER BOOTS UP,GLOWING THE TEMP LIGHTS OF CPU)

This i didn't understand.Are you using both Video cards as per your sig?What is CPU voltage?
Monitor your temperature also with Real Temp,Core Temp or HWMonitor,because they all have max.value.

Re: Gigabyte Latest BIOS

Ya, I am having some satellite issues AGAIN tonight!! I wish I had DSL

Ya, I had XS page open to read that thread when the BIOS was sent, so I posted there and then could not get this page to load for a minute. They both actually say 33 Minutes after the hour though. I do see they say two different hours for me as well, must be the time zone settings? I posted there and here at the same time though, within a minute or so.

Anyhow, please do add the above note on page one, that I updated the above so have. Qflash issue may still be present, and users should be aware of that

Thanks
