TweakTown has F11d and its great, or at least i don't have any problems with it.
BTW, is 1.36V normal for 500FSB on the 1.0 UD3P?
hitting a FSB wall above 547MHz. is this common for the UD3P? :shrug: i thought this board was supposed to break 550MHz quite easily! currently on F3 bios.
Greetings,
I find mention of a F14 BIOS for the EP45-UD3R on several sites, but can only seem to find F13e. Does anyone know where to find F14?
-Thanks
so I recently got this board and cpu, ran it stock for a long time and then finally got around to OC'ing it. I am having a high piched noise come and go while running IntelBurnTest 2.53 and Folding@home. and one time I was hibernating/sleeping the machine and I heard it from across the room right before it powered off. when I powered back on it failed to load the hiberfile.sys...
so I am curious, has anyone had any experiences with this board similar to mine, does anyone think it could be a sign that I am pushing the cpu to hard and its drawing too much power for this board?
A simple question, I am having fun with this board (EP45-UD3P), but the latest F10 bios is rather crap for overclocking. Does any of you still have the F11c bios laying around? I cant find it anywhere.
It would be really appreciated.
I have a strange problem (all bioses) I have a very stable overclock. (8.5 * 500 FSB) linpack stable, OCCT stable. Everything nice and neat. I booted with these settings. Now when i reboot. The MB 'detects' this is not stable, it goes into boot, reboot phase, untill the default BIOS settings are restored.
I know I am a few years late, but wtf?
The reboot loop is a well-known problem for many P45 boards unfortunately. Does it boot if you change to your settings after resetting itself to BIOS defaults?
When i save my OC settings in bios again. It boots normally again. Leaving the PC a little time off. I don't mind the boot/reboot loop as long as it applies my stable settings :p
The problems occurs when i restart from windows it seems.
BTW, my overclock is 8.5 * 500, ram at 500 (DDR2) PL9 1.26Vcore. Is this considered any good?
Decided to go back in time a few years and re-try this board.
Got 3rd in q9650 hardware ranking at HWBot with this 32m run. Would need the T board to do any better I think, but still pretty happy with the score.
^ just awesome man, one of the most fun setups to bench ever!
There's actually 2 different version of the EP45-UD3R board.
I've had good results with the modded F12 bios for the Rev. 1.0 board here:

Hi guys... I recently purchased a EP45-UD3P r 1.6 motherboard from eBay because I wanted to use this board as a bench board only and it's list of compatible CPU's was insane. I received the board no issues, looks in mint shape no damage (accept the locking pin on PCIe slot1 was broken off). No worries there.
My issue is that I cannot for the life of me flash the latest FFb BIOS from Gigabyte. The mobo currently has bios FD. Actually both BIOS's on the mobo are at FD. I've tried Qflash and @BIOS and they both fail while erasing the chip. Another thing I
notice is that I cannot save any CMOS settings onto the available slots. I can save my CMOS to my HDD but the actual BIOS chip. I have tried bios FA,FB and FFb and they all fail. I have also tired by passing my main bios by setting up a jump on pin 5 and 6 on the main bios forcing the main bios to by flash again from the backup bios and I still can't flash the main bios. Has anybody heard of this issue? Looking on google I have found 1 other guy that had the same issue as me and he as well was not able to get his bios flash.
I have tried so many things. Like different RAM, CPU,PSU and video card.
One thing I can do though is save my BIOS onto the HDD or usb stick and then I am able to re-flash my bios onto the chip, but I cannot flash a new bios to the chip :( I am completely lost.
Any help would be awesome. thanks in advance
I've never had this problem, sorry mate.
Have you contacted Gigabyte Support yet?
hey guys,
So I have wanted to hunt down a p45-UD3P for a while and finally found 2 but I can only get 1.
one is a version 1.0 and one is a version 1.1
Which for a straight overclocking board would be better? I will be using celerons and D's),Pentium 4's, Core 2 duos and quads.
I might be putting the board under cold in the future so that would have to be considered.
I though I would ask here as XS seems to be knowledge with this board.
opinions/Advice?
I'd go with the v1.0 board, but they should both be good. v1.6 is worse than the two other versions though.
If some say it is better you should trust them, though my v1.0 board is doing fine... :p:
