GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

Re: Gigabyte Latest BIOS

i am almos sure that leaving voltages @auto while overclocking is a really bad idea

at least my DS4 cranked most of them up by itself when i did that.

Re: Gigabyte Latest BIOS

I have spent more hours (months) than I care to admit trying to optimize my Core 920 settings for normal 24/7, all voltages below warning levels, enclosed case with normal ambient temperatures (33c) for my water cooled system that is OCCT (1 hour) and Prime (24 hours,large FFTs) stable. These setting can also be used with someone with stock fans and can also be run with CIE and EIST modes enabled.

Motherboard: Gigabyte EX58 Extreme
BIOS: F6i

CPU: x21 (x20 with Turbo on)
BCLK: 195
QPI: x36
UnCore: x18
Memory: x8

CPU VCore: 1.3625
VTT: 1.335
CPU PLL: 1.88
Memory: 1.64
All other voltages: Auto

Memory is Manual (Quick) with normal stock settings for my OCZ 1866
9
9
9
24

MultiThreading is Off

I have tried tweaking these numbers many, many times ( and yes, Ive had it to 4.400 Prime stable with Turbo and I've gotten it stable at 4.2 with Turbo and Multithreading on) but all other settings require memory multiples at x6, or cause unstability or the temps are in the high 70's or low 80's.

With the above settings and my ATI HD 4970 x2 overclocked to 772/970 (warning - do not try these Video Card settings on air) I have gotten 3DMark scores of (Performance):
Overall: 16,257
GPU: 15,577
CPU: 18,705

By the way S3 works perfectly, no multi boot issues, my SATA hard drives run with AHCI on the Intel connectors while my dual SATA optical drives run off the GSATA connectors in the IDE mode - all with no problems.

Like many others, I have had my share of problems and frustrations. I will be the first to tell you that you can produce higher stable settings but it will require much higher temps and way underclocking your memory.

Re: Gigabyte Latest BIOS

when would you say its necesary to touch the IOH voltage
?

Re: Gigabyte Latest BIOS

Whoops - your right, it's really in Auto. I will edit my posting.

Re: Gigabyte Latest BIOS

Hi guys, this my first post on this forum.

I got an urgent question:

Does the E8200 work on a Gigabyte DQ6-P965 rev. 1.0 motherboard with the latest(beta) bios?

I saw alot of different results with people with almost identical setups, but this thread is possibly the best place to ask.

Thanks prasrig,

For settings please see my email yesterday at 3:33am. I am using BIOS F6i with no problems.

I promise never to post another pic - ever!

My system has dual liquid cooling systems. I found that when I added my ATI HD 4870-X2 video card to the same loop as the 920 CPU and Northbridge the liquid never cooled down. So now the CPU and NB are on the integrated Bigwater 780e cooling system with three separate radiators and the GPU is on the external Koolance EXOS-2.5 (great system - contrary to a few reviews out there). The EXOS will easily accomodate a planned additional video card.

(I wanna want to make it big)

and i have never used W.Cing but with just air cooling it reaches 4.2ghz man
just im thinking of installing it in a near time !!!!!!!

Thanks
