  • External Fan Controller for Gigabyte x99 motherboard

    As some of us know, the fan control software bundled with Gigabyte x99 motherboards (SmartFan+) is an abomination. Can anybody recommend an external fan controller that works with Corsair fans and automatically adjusts temps from reading motherboard sensors?

    I'm running a GA-X99-Gaming...

    Hi again everyone,


    I am very happy to say that GA-X99-Gaming G1 WIFI - F9 has fixed all of my bootloop/USB related problems. It's about time, Gigabyte.

    Now if they would just fix SmartFan+, I'd be totally happy with this ...

    After the bootloops I experienced with GA-X99-Gaming G1 WIFI - F8, I'm having much better luck with F8g. So far, I've been able to leave my USB devices plugged in during boot/reboot without issue. Also, the boot process seems a bit faster as well.

    Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

    Another bug I noticed in GA-X99-Gaming G1 WIFI - F8 is that disabling turbo boost/power saving features of my CPU has no effect. Even those features disabled, the clock speed is still fluctuating based on load.

    Anyone else noticed there's no...

    OK everybody, I walked away from the problem for a few minutes and thought of something else to try. I thought back to all the problems we were having with older x99 BIOS versions with USB card readers etc plugged into the F_USB30_2 header.

    Hi Stasio,

    I flashed GA-X99-Gaming G1 WIFI - F8
    onto my machine tonight using using Q-Flash from inside the BIOS, and everything was successful. But the system just bootloops at the Gigabyte logo screen.

    Here is what I have tried...

  • Re: GA-X99-SOC Force: Basic overclock question / assistance?

    Did you disable any power saving functions in the bios?

    In order to get my rig stable at 4.4GHz I had to bump vcore to 1.35, with temperatures hovering around 70-75C. That seems like a lot of voltage for that speed....

    I figured out what is causing the boot loop after a Windows crash. I have a Silverstone FP-37 USB 3.0 card reader plugged into the motherboard.

    So the USB front panel issue is NOT FIXED with BIOS F8e.

    Hi, I'm getting BIOS boot loops on both F7 and F8e BIOS on my GA-X99-Gaming G1 WIFI whenever I use the CPU upgrade options.

    Here's what happens:

    1. Select the i7-5960X 4.3GHz upgrade setting in the Bios, then save and exit.
