    Thanks for helping me out.

    My experience with this board for what it's worth...


    The bios from the non-k overclocking page is the F6e, which I got to 4.5GHz but then my system had the "cold boot loop" issue. It was stable but having to pull the power on every shutdown was just too annoying.


    I tried the older official F5 but it had the "no boot drive" issue. I also found an F6g on this site but it has the same cold boot issue as the F6e. These bios all have the 3A microcode that allows non-k overclocking.


    I think the 6A microcode also allows non-k but I couldn't find a bios with 6A to test. All the official bios F6..F20 have 74 or greater microcode that cannot overclock non-k chips. Stasio provided a modded F7 with older microcode 3A and 6A but they were not valid according to Qflash.


    Good luck and let me know how you fare.

    Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

    Guys I use a X58A-UD3R Rev 2 and a Xeon X5670. At the moment I can't run more then 4,6ghz @ 1,376v.
    I saw here the modbios: "X58A-UD3R Rev. 2.0 Bios FH MOD Complete" and wanna know if anyone knows if I can reach higher clocks with it. And what the difference to the normal FH bios is.
    If possible I want to go higher with the clock, but want stay under 1,4v.

    The last modbios I used whas on the NF7S(2), so I am a bit inexperienced by the X58 chipset.

    Re: GIGABYTE Modified Bios

    Hi guys,
    I have the z77-d3h rev 1.0 with me. Since a year ago, it has been having this dumb problem:

    When booting up, sometimes it will revert to the old (Ultra Durable) BIOS splash screen and just get stuck there. Even when I restart it or clear the CMOS, it will get stuck at the old BIOS screen.

    Sometimes, when I let it rest for a few days (and if I get lucky), it goes back to normal and boots up instantly (with the correct new BIOS screen).

    So I thought it was a BIOS issue, and went ahead to test F22, F23b and eventually the modified BIOS.

    same problem still persists. anyone knows which component is exactly at fault here? I've changed almost every single component except my CPU, Mobo and PSU. ALL other items are literally switched to brand new already.

    thank you.
    Try to ask GB Technical Support or try to add memory setting manually.
    Google your new ram v5.21 for setting.
    No modified BIOS will help.

    3. Problem resuming from sleep. When I resume from sleep, the CPU will run for 2s before turning off, and turning on again. It gets back to normal thereafter but it is annoying. This happens 10 in 10 times.

    With the 3 issues above, I have changed everything in my system except
    1. RAM (Memtest passed 2x)
    2. PSU (load only 200w, PSU is 620w seasonic)
    3. Mobo (z77-d3h, f23b. any sure way to test whether it is working?)
    4. CPU (i5-2500k, solid workhorse, not overclocked)

    Any idea what is wrong and how I can resolve the 3 issues above?
    Any USB dongle except mouse and keyboard attach?
    Try to Clear_CMOS.....

    Thanks for fast answer and useful advice Stasio, although i didn't get to clearing cmos stage,i did manage to finally make everything work.so for anyone there with the same problem here is the solution:
    1.After flashing uefi rom be sure to load optimized defaults just in case and reboot
    2.then go in bios again and put Legacy Mode for PCI (Legacy Rom OP on u1a),also be sure to put under "Miscellaneous Settings" for PEG to your graphics generation (usually PEG2 or PEG3),second option to enchance benchmark is optional(I put it)
    also put under "Peripherals" for first display device to PEG
    3.After reboot your gpu should start working as expected

    Cheers
