Wow i just flashed to F6A and level 7 LLC voltage goes allllllllllll over the place , to 1.488 down to 1.464 down to 1.455 , up to 1.472... is this a joke?
Nope Still fluctuate like crazy... even on idle...
I tried to flash F3H back but now my LLC seems alllllllll :banana::banana::banana::banana:ed up on the F3H.
Is there a way to hard reset the motherboard i dont know??
Maybe flash f3h twice and flash the backup bios too... i dont know...
The F6A has really unstable voltage for me
And now its like my motherboard still thinks i have 10 LEVEL of LLC, but i have only 2, so my Level 1 and Level dont even work...
i dont know what to do anymore....
Flashed back to F3H
1.45V in bios = 1.416V idle, and 1.296V Load... This is not even close to what my F3H Level 1 Was before...
WTF is happening
Did you flash the back up bios as well?
Heres with F5...bios

@Windows with ET6 to up bclk to 100.30 to even 5.0Ghz
Vcore load spiked to 1.428 for fraction of a second and won't budge @ 1.416..

Vcore 1.40 set in bios and @ load vcore 1.392~1.416...

Just Ordered an Asus Maximus IV.... ive had this board for 2 weeks and all i had was trouble.. F3H was pretty stable, but the 2 LLC werent good enough for me... Lvl2 would add vcore... and lvl1 had a big drop...
anyways i will see if i have trouble with the maximus too.. hope not
Yea Thank you, I know the UD7 is well built board with good quality components, but the bios,Oooo dear the bios is ****. When you need to run a bios that was out on release but it's the only one that is stable for you. This is patethic :P
Did you clear the CMOS RIGHT after flashing, with the power cord unplugged, for at LEAST 30 seconds, after having the computer powered off for at least a minute BEFORE using the clear cmos button? AND using the MS DOS spiflasher? You're supposed to turn off the computer after the DOS flash is complete, without letting it restart, and do a full cmos clear as above. It helps, after turning the computer off and unplugging the PSU, to depress the power button for a few seconds, before doing the 30 second clear cmos. And for the Love of God, don't flash in windows....
Do this and your F3H will be perfectly back to normal.
Got it as an rma replacement for B2 Ud7 like everybody else.
I'm pretty sure all UD7 is the same, the only different is our concept of stability. This board will give peep headache with reboot loops or stock setting bsod....comparo to MIVE, but is pretty fast for benching when the oc settings work
I gotcha it just seems that the MIVE is a bit more stable (all around), has frequent bios updates ( and they are getting better not worse), and is now competitive with the Giga boards under 3D benches.
I have had no problems with reboot loops, but it just seems like the voltage regulation is all over the place on the UD7 and their implementation of LLC is still not quite there, regardless I am just going to use the UD7 for a hackintosh build for a friend since they have DSDT for bios F4.
Quite a bit of fluctuation on mine too (B3). F3h wont allow me to use L1 and then I made the mistake of using F5e.....no boot......went to F6a and I'm getting my 56x chip back up and running, but there is still fluctuations. When I input 1.67/L7 I get an initial 1.728 in cpu-z then it drops to 1.69 then 1.644 then, when running LinX it stays around 1.62 (this is Vcore I mean). If I use L8 there is a similar set of fluctuations.
Going to do @falkentynes method of clearing cmos to see if that helps.
I have to say that my new MIV-Gene Z (mini MIVE-Z) is very stable in the Vcore department but I don't want to "gunge" it up for the SS just yet.
hey guys, can someone help me out?
I'm recently trying to set up a raid5 array with 3x F4 2TB. Only way i can set it up is trough bios interface.
But i already have 1 F4 full with data so that's a no go, because i'll then lose the data on the currently instald F4, so i need to Migrade the new 2x F4's with the one that already has data on it. So software raid is probably my only choice. So i tried Gigabyte XHD and I get this same error every time. tried on Windows7 64bit also tried a clean instal. my boot is an M4 SSD, don't know if that has anything to do with it.

you gotta clear cmos and load optimized defaults during your first boot up after flashing the BIOS.
jbk- why not take the data off your one F4 and setup with BIOS RAID, and put it back after.
Yes, but thats also the problem, bacause i don't have 2TB spare space.
Is this thread dead?
Hasn't been anything to report lately. The UD4 thread has been getting most of the traffic, since they put in the 10 LLC levels in that recently. The UD5 thread is even worse; last post there was last May....
Are these 6 series boards PCI-E 3 GPU compatible , that is with an ivy bridge cpu when they arrive , only the story going around is that although GB announced that all 6 series boards are pci-e 3.0 compatible , basically that they are not, anyone know ?
Anybody got the same problem as I have with the Gigabyte Z68 UD7 board? It worked fine for one month, but now my system just freezes for no reason I can think of. This is even in a non overclocked state with a 2600K and Win7 64Bit Home Premium. There is no BSOD. It just hangs, and my keyboard or mouse don't do anything anymore, they don't get any power too as the leds are out. When I go into the Bios (F5 version) it says 'The System has experienced boot failures because of overclocking or changes of voltages. the last settings in this page may not coincide with current H/W states'. The Event Viewer for Win7 doesn't show any reason why the system hanged. Is my board fried in some way?
WORKED FOR ME GOOD LUCK!

Nowhere in his post did he say he was using that SSD! Your solution doesn't apply to anything he wrote! That thread even said that you will see atapi timeout errors in event viewer. Now I didn't read everything there, but I didn't see any mention of an Intel SSD there.
You can't just post something randomly and assume your solution applies for everyone when you haven't paid attention to his system specifications....
