maybe this can be seperated as well like the CPU multi?
example:
Do want! This would be so convenient for me, considering I might be able to run 4.2Ghz, just with increased voltage, but to do so on all cores would mean too much heat to handle.
From a post I made on overclock.net about the new GA-MA790XT-UD4P F8F BIOS:
I just thoroughly tested out this BIOS and this is what I found:
- During POST, "memory information" now displays the correct memory speed (i.e. if your memory multiplier is x5.33 which would nominally show DDR3-1066, at 302FSB x 5.33 it should now say the correct 1609mhz).
- DQS Training Control (Skip or perform)
- CKE Power Down
- Memlock tri-stating
- Bank Swizzle Mode
And this would I think be the most important thing of the new BIOS:
- Restart issues when using the x7 or x8 northbridge multipliers have been fixed.
- Restarts using both NB multipliers were tested using restarts after saving & exiting the BIOS, exiting the BIOS without saving, and restarting from Windows.
- People using older BIOS's may have the issue of getting a string of restarts after exiting the BIOS without saving (or ocassionaly, after saving), and restarting from Windows, when running on a high FSB with northbridge multipliers x7 or x8. People with this issue do not get this problem during cold boots.
- Gigabyte still has not fixed the "core temperatures" being 10-12 degrees lower than actual temperatures on the 1055T, but the "CPU temperature" is pretty much the same thing so it's not a huge problem.
CPu temp is not a GBT problem mate......it's the crappy temp controllers on AMD chips...it's odd though but they vary a bit from board to board however AMD temps underreport temps which i dont like because people dont really know the true temps imo
What's the story with updates for the GA-H55M-S2H? The latest BIOS on the Gigabyte website is F5 and dated 2010/02/12. I found F6m here, but it was hidden and wasn't easy to find.
When I checked, every other P55 or H55 board had an update in April and again in June. Is this board a low priority within Gigabyte?
Hello everyone, in earlier posts I described how I couldn't change mem times in bios but that was ok...but now after flashing to f7 I can't O/C cpu manually either...I can use easytune6 to up it but not where I had it before..when I try to manually put in my numbers it pops up with "please reboot to bla bla bla", but it reverts back to its own settings within two or three seconds. I wasn't planning on spending my entire evening on this project (actually none of it) and yes I still can't adj mem times either...I have the GA-H57M-USB3 board with I3 and 4 gig of Rip Jaw 12800...any help would be appreciated...maybe I will have time for a snack before bed lol
I've just purchased a gigabyte EP45-UD3P rev 1.6 Motherboard and plan to update another PC I have with this board as well. I have always used Asus boards but heard about this board and thought I'd give a try with my Q9650.
I have somewhat loosely perused through the past 300 odd pages but if anyone could so kindly please state all official and betas bios' released for this board and what date each bios was released.
I've gone to the OZ GA website to have a look at their bios' and they have the following:
FA: May 7 2009
FB: May 20 2009
FD: Nov 24 2009
FE: Mar 12 2010
I understand there's also a beta F10 bios but I don't know when this was released. I've also downloaded an fea, don't know its release date.
There's also 10e, 10f, 10j 10k and also don't know their release dates and if these are for ver 1.0, 1.1 or 1.6.
Just wanted to know what all the bios release were with dates or if anyone can point me to a site that has all this information would be much appreciated and which is the best bios for me to run.
My system comprises of the following:
All Bios Settings are stock.
Gigabyte EP45-UD3P v1.6 Bios F10
Intel Q9650 CPU Stepping A Revision E0
Thermaltake bigtyp 120 VX Heatsink/Fan
2 x 2GB Patriot Viper PVS24G8500ELKR2 DDR2 1066 5-5-5-15 2.1v Slots 2, 4
Samsung 1TB Spinpoint F3 HDD
xFx ATI HD 5770 1GB PCIe Video Card
Pioneer DVR-218L DVD-RW
Windows 7 Ultimate x64
I have tried to use a pair of Corsair TWIN2X4096-8500C5D Dominator 4GB DDR2 1066 5-5-5-15 2.1v ram modules but the system would either not boot, crash/bluescreen. Has anyone successfully used these modules on this board and if so, what bios are you using and settings to get this memory working? I have read somewhere that these modules should have their voltage set to 2.1v instead of the stock 1.8v?
Does this also mean that I should set the voltage for my Vipers to 2.1v as well or leaving them stock at 1.8v which they seem to run fine with?
I also have an EP45-Extreme but neither the Vipers or the Dominator work with this board. Mind you I haven't perform and bios changes to try and make them work. I currently use DDR2 800 modules that seem to work without a hitch
I am using this setup for Video Editing/Games and do not want to get into overclocking yet and just running a stock setup with no tweaks but I want to eventually O/C my sysem sometime soon. I have tried O/C this board to 3.5GHz manually via bios with no luck but have successfully set it to this speed using Easy Tune 6 via Windows.
I'm only new to overclocking so I have a lot to learn. :)

Thanks for your help in advance.

Yep, page one will have the latest BIOS for your board, and a link to "Previous Versions"
I suggest the latest, and yes I assume your memory should be 2.1v being 1066Mhz, and as per the specs
As for your vipers, you would need to look at the specs of give us the model # if you are not sure, it should be printed on the side of the modules (The voltage and or model #)
