i verified and compare wth F5 & F6
Gulftown(Q3FE)
X58A-UD7
1.In bios only change QPI/VTT value
2.OC to specific BCLK (such 175MHz). boot success
then change QPI/VTT again
F5,F6 shutdown and restart even only change QPI/VTT to 1.2v (
tested 1.2,1.3,1.4,1.5,1.6v)
F6 Test 1 BIOS won't do shutdown & restart.
1. help you more easy to oc gulftown even with general air cooling system
reduce shutdown & restart chance helps you to build a strong general oc system.
2. with extreme oc, if your chip coldboot -160, coldbug -140, when you
running -160 testing and clock instable( such blue screen or freezed screen)
will shutdown & restart due to QPI/VTT BIOS changing. and fai to bootl, cuz cpu
coldboot at -140, and you try to reboot at -160 with previous BIOSes.
with this new beta BIOS could let you to avoid this situation, so this BIOS
helps you alot when do extreme oc.
This BIOS fixed
1. QPI/VTT value change with Gulftwon CPU
2. Gulftown IMC oc fail, need to remove power cord, new BIOS fixed.
3. Gufltown OC fail, F1~BF fast looping, need to remove power cord, fixed.
Thanks Stasio, had not made it over to XS yet tonight.
They should make this fix, the vtt change/shutdown issue, for regular i7's as well, I'll have to ask him about that.
*edit(
Ohh, I see his note "also work for Bloomfield as well" I see no need to ask now.
What exactly is hicookie talking about I'm not really understanding it.. is he saying Nehalem CPUs can achieve the same overclock with a lower VTT? Does this apply to EX58 as well?
Hi All,
This is my first post, just joined here.
I have a problem with my P55A UD4P.
Iam using F8 Bios revision
my setting is
i5 750 @ 4ghz
v-core 1.27volt
vtt = 1.25volt
VDimm= auto
Bclk= 200
Multiplier = 10
All Cpu feature like eist,turboost is disable
The problem:
My memory , which is Team Extreme LV 2000mhz series 9-9-9-24 4gbkit,
can't boot at all ,
if i set the memory timing manual, (I have to set the timing to auto to make it boot)
Also There is some feature in bios at memory section which called "Performance enchance"
If i set it to normal, it won't boot . i must set it to turbo to make it boot at 2000mhz.
It Can only boot with 1600mhz memory clock (maximum value) if i set the memory timing manual, if i go above 1600, it wont boot.
So Is the new Bios f9 can fix it?
or is there any mistake with my setting
Thanks very much
please don't kill me, but I cannot find any information about the mainbord I am looking for. As far as I could see Gigabyte did not forget the P45 after all - thanks for that!
Now since some older P45 board got some updates and all P55/H55/H5 and the X58 boards are pretty much supplied, I feel that one release seems to be the black sheep in the ranks of the P45 (UD3 series).
I am talking about the EP45T-UD3P (rev 1.0) (the one with the DDR3 slots) which seems to have been forgotten since the F8c bios.
My question is - why?
Is it the lack of time for testing or is it not important enough for updates? Does anyone know anything new about the board?

If there is a new BIOS then yes please update to it. As for your issues, 2000Mhz is not an easy task for users to get running, it will require a bit of tweaking on your end to get going, auto is not going to work for many settings.
Please make a new thread with your full specs, and fill out a template from my signature with your current full settings and explain your issue.
This way we can help you easier and keep track of things.

Please help
Often if they skip a BIOS it is because no issues have been reported with it, and or no improvements are needed. Did you have an issue with the BIOS you are using, if so did you report it to them?
F8c is the latest still, are you having BIOS related issues? If so what problem are you having?
No? Why do you say that? X58A-UD7 is listed at the top of page one, and previous older BIOS for it is here (Also linked right at the top as well) Gigabyte Latest BIOS
