Just a quick note: with your version of F3a I had no crashes at 4.62GHz (FX-8120). With the new F3 I do not seem to be able
to sustain this speed. Your versions are much stable and responsive in any case.
Well, this can be caused by the Gigabyte, Gigabyte has updated the AGESACPU, that could the problem.
On my bord, P45 - ICH10R with 11.6 orom and 11.6 RST driver doesn't work ( i tried it with 11.5 orom and 11.5/6 RST driver and its the same ), since is the same south bridge like the one on my board im sure you are going to get the same result as me. Since you want speed you need to do some testing, some ppl. say that 11.2 orom and drivers offers more performance than 11.5/6 orom.
So is there any chance to get "raid-0 trim" support in X58 (by spoofing the Z77 bios or something like that) or is it a pipe dream?
Yes, you're right, I think that motherboard is not good to high overlocking features, I tried to change my HT frequency, and others stuffs like an higher multiplier of my mem. and the Motherborad does not booted up, I can't change the TRFC timing settings as well. Maybe is bug or a limit of the chipset.
JohnSlash, a big big favor I would dare to ask you: At your convenience could you please incorporate the latest ROMs (as you so
greatly did in F3) into F3a?
As posted before, I cannot overclock the F3 to the extend it was possible with the F3a. Thanks once again!!!

Could you take a picture and upload in any site your overclock bios screen ?
I have switched many settings, but i'm not comfortable with them.
( If it's not a bothering, please, post the RAM timing screen, or type it here )
Many Thanks.
Thanks a lot for the F3a - won't be going back to F3.
My Settings: FX-8120 (125W TDP), 16GB Kingston KVR16N11K2/16, VCore: 1.4225, CPU NB VID: 1.39, NB/SV V: 1.3, DDR3 V: 1.65, CPU Mult: 21, MEM Mult: 6.66, FSB: 220, MEM Settings: Whatever is mentioned across the "AUTO" column (not SPD) with 1T, Load Line Control: Extreme, ALL other features (Core Performance Boost, C1E, Virtualization, CnQ): OFF
My Conclusions: Higher VCore=Crash within 15mins irrespective of CPU Mult, Higher FSB (with higher CPU NB VID)=Crash within 30mins, FSB>235 (with Max CPU NB VID)=NO Boot, CANNOT change a) CPU Northbridge Freq, b) HT Link Freq, c) MEM Timings (other than what is implied across the "SPD" or "AUTO" columns)= IN ALL CASES [a), b) or c)] NO BOOT
RESULT= 4.62GHz, with F3a runs for days, DOES NOT PASS heavy benchmarking e.g. PI etc but runs every day tasks, plays 3D movies etc
MUST= Air Circulation, Hyper 212 EVO NOT ENOUGH, had to mount 2 DAYTON 4WT47 (105 cfm each) blowing air into the case

Many Thanks bro. I'll copy your settings and test.

My pleasure. Something else I forgot to mention: At ANY cost get rid of EasyTune. Using AMD OverDrive you could attain these settings but seemingly with less impact on heat (compared to BIOS implementation). Go figure... Also the system feels a bit more responsive with HT Link Width: 16-Bit (you can change that = NO Crash).
