I've tried with ModBin6 and AWARD BIOS Editor already... but AWARD BIOS Editor corrupts the BIOS file and ModBin6 seems to edit it fine, the problem is I'm not able to flash it!
@Bios doesn't accept the mod BIOS made by ModBin6...
Ive got a Malaysia chip, currently doing 4.5ghz at 1.27v, seriously needs de-lidding, under prime95 core 1 hit 93oC while core 4 was round about 75oC with the other 2 cores hovering around the middle somewhere, this tells me the TIM and Lid are crap, however there is no way in this world I am putting a hammer to my chip, im sure plenty of you have done it, but it looks like total madness to me, I don't have £250 to throw away.
However one thing that's got me wondering about my overclock is, Windows system doesn't show my overclock, but cpu-z/easytune does ?
Im running it on a Gigabyte G1 Sniper Z87 board, could not for the life of me get it stable with the Gigabyte official bioses, so today I flashed the modded bios, F2b, worked perfectly straight away, a very easy overclock, and successfully ran 17.5 hours of Prime95 (the newest one), also running 4 x 2gb (8GB) sticks of G.Skill Ripjaws 2133mhz @ 9-11-9-28-2T.
Could it be due to the beta bios that windows system isn't detecting my correct CPU speed ? also, if I flash back to the official F2 bios, will all the mods/updated firmware from the modded bios return to how they were before or will they remain modded ?
And on top of that, only 7.8 on the CPU in Windows User Experience when everything else is scoring 7.9, whats that all about ?
does it make sense for me to use the GA-Z77X-UD5H BIOS F16 mod11 for my UD5H even if the 13.0.0 Series Intel Oroms for AHCI/RAID are optimized for Z87 chipset?
