GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

I am running the GA-Z77X-UP5 TH - F12e BIOS and am having two problems. My system is as follows. GA-Z77X-UP5 TH motherboard, Intel 3570K CPU, 16 gig (2x8) Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1866 CL9 memory. I set the CPU multiplier to 34 and use the Turbo setting to overclock. Once I set the Turbo or main CPU multiplier to 46 the CPU voltage jumps to 1.284 in Turbo mode while only 1.265 is needed if I only set the main CPU multiplier to 46. If I try to use the DVID to offset this then I have a no post condition that requires a CMOS reset to recover. ANY adjustment to the DVID will cause this condition as long as the CPU multiplier is set to 46 or above. The system is bootable and stable with either CPU or Turbo multipliers set to 45. With the CPU multiplier set to 45 only 1.235 is needed and in Turbo mode the voltage is 1.248. I set the LLC to NORMAL to prevent the voltage jumping to 1.284 while in Turbo mode at 4500. There must be a BIOS issue because I cannot adjust the DVID offset without a non-post condition once the ,multiplier is at or above 46. I hope this is the right place to post this because I believe it is a Beta BIOS issue, if not please move it to the proper forum.

I have updated my PC Specs to the current build.

I have your same problem with ud5h and all final\beta bios presents this issue for me. Voltage vcore too high in overclock.

My problem with the CPU voltage is that it is too high while trying to overclock using Turbo method. That would not be an issue if adjusting the DVID would not lock-up the motherboard.
I can adjust the DVID and LLC to an appropriate voltage as long as the Turbo multiplier is at or below 45.
But what's the fun in that? I want more.
If I set the Turbo multipliers to 46 or above I CANNOT adjust the DVID without the BIOS needing a CMOS reset at the restart.
My CPU can run as high as 4700, if I adjust only the MAIN CPU multiplier, without much of a heat problem but I don't want it running high overclocks 24/7.

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

I have a 3770k. the voltage is high if speed cpu exceeds 4.4ghz becomes 1,235 (normal) with turbo or with the multiplier and often the bios freezes. In windows with cpuz i see 1.30v and hot temps. 4.7ghz for me stable are on 1.41v llc extreme. 4.4 stable at 1.245 llc turbo. Not good conditions. This happens with all versions of bios gigabyte and i ask gigabyte for a resolution.

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

are you all testing with lower llc levels?? and different dvid amounts? if its overvolting cpu voltage then you might be better lowering llc level and add a touch more dvid? have you tried?

[gizmo83]

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

yes i tried but in normal mode the dvid starts from 1.30v. For example: multi 44, llc medium i have to set dvid to -0.08 if i want to stay at 1.224 in full load. This is too strange. I need a solution from gigabyte. It's very frustrating for me..

I have tried to lower or raise the DVID amount to + or - the smallest amount of change offered to try and offset the voltage. When I have either the Main CPU multiplier or the Turbo multipliers set to 46 or above the BIOS locks on restart. It takes a CMOS reset to recover. I have tried to lower and raise the LLC to try and avoid the lock-up but nothing can prevent it while I am using the DVID to offset CPU voltage.

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

hello


I have a Gigabyte Z77X-UD3H Motherboard. I just recently installed the F19e Bios using the Qflash.

I went into the Bios when it was finished and changed the Boot order from trying to boot into my flash drive to booting into my SSD.

Well when I restarted I get a Code 62 that seems to just sit there with a dark screen and I can hear the fan slow as if its going into the OS but there is NO picture on the Screen.

Any Idea how to get my screen back?

The only way I can use my PC now is to switch the BIOS to the secondary Bios.

The problem is I want to install and start using Windows 8 Pro. And it requires the F19e Bios.

Any Idea Why it seems to be stuck on "Installation of PCH runtime services" Error Code 62?


Any help on how I can get it to pass Code 62?

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

I have your same problem with ud5h and all final\beta bios presents this issue for me. Voltage vcore too high in overclock.

Me too, exactly the same on my god-awful GA-Z77-D3H, quite possibly THE worst motherboard I have bought in the last 6 years.

In the BIOS, my CPU's (I5 2550k) vid is 1.250, sometimes it's 1.220, sometimes 1.235, but mostly 1.250. To get a stable 4.5Ghz overclock I need 1.300v so I simply use DVID 0.050v. On previous much older BIOSes I could use this and maintain a 1.300 to 1.310v in Windows when the CPU was stressed. Now, on anything above F15, I am seeing stupid voltages as high as 1.480v, even 1.500v at one time, with temps now nearing 90c. Ridiculous.

LLC, on this board, doesn't seem to do anything much. Standard, Normal, Low, etc.. all just lower the max voltages by such a tiny amount that I just as well use a set fixed voltage of 1.300v and damn the power-saving modes.

Tried using the other guy's Turbo method and I cannot get a stable 4.5 o/c, no matter what settings I use.

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

we need a solution. The voltages are strange and always high. Gigabyte where are you?

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

posting this for another user,hope theres a fix in the pipeline

Another one having problems with the D3H, GPU (570GTX) running at x4 and I can only set AUTO/x1/x4 against the slot in the BIOS. If I force Gen2, the machine fails to detect the GPU and boots headless (or using internal HD4000).

Forced the Render Test in GPUZ and the card hits a ceiling at x4, it'll down speed to x1 quite happily but that's about it.

Card is made by MSI if that's any difference, and CPU is i5 3570K. I've disabled anything that might be using a PCI-E lane and that makes no difference either.

Noticed F19 beta is out, but can't find any helpful release notes.

thanks ive past it on,COME ON GIGABYTE SORT IT OUT!!!!!!!

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

My ud5h has condensers purple. I have read that it is a second revision. My biggest problem is the management of the voltage which is far higher than normal. I hope gigabyte solve the problem because it would be really a huge disappointment. My cpu is a 3770k. If I set 4.4ghz normal, dvid +0.05 v and llc medium, my vcore is 1.35v! Horrible ...

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

what happens if you use one level lower llc? still could be bios bug though

[gizmo83]

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

the voltage remains high. from 4.4 GHz up. to be stable: 4.4 Ghz = 1.24v
4.5ghz 1.28V, 4.6ghz 1.36v 4.7 1.44 v. At 4.4 ghz if i set llc on medium i must set dvid -0.06 to go at 1.24vcore
