No I believe the ds3p is more closely related to the dq
15 minutes and I'll post my results... Still haven't came close to maxing my OC's due to either a weak clocking ram stick (have 4 sticks) usb issue (no ps/2 adapters) or weak PSU (still waiting on my RMA... Using a 430W Cooler Master 18 amp 12v...)
Does the bios from DS3 works on S3 ?
lol look just even a few posts above yours. yes it doesQuote:

Edit: Is F8 in gigabyte website any different from the F8 Qualification BIOS?
Just checked them in a Hex Editor. Both exactly the same.Quote:

At this rate maybe next year?
Doesn't anyone else have results for this BIOS yet??
Someone with a DS3 maybe?
Ok wtf is this crap..
Download from ... F8 2006/12/19 Update CPU ID
Didn't they fix the issue with D9 going over 450 Mhz with this BIOS, oh yea and added profiles to save your overclock and supposedly the issue where rebooting the computer lost your overclock.
Why is none of this mentioned?
They post it on their website with Update CPU ID...I'm ...speechless...

I would love to download this BIOS to let you all know if it fixes the D9 compatibility issue, but I moved over to the P5B-DLX. Sorry gigabyte, your WAY slow.....
flashed mine!!

any newer BIOS over F7e for DS4? I should say they fixed cold boot problem in F7e
Is the problem with ram going beyond 450 in general or 450 when 1:1 with fsb?Quote:

You can only go 1:1 with 965. D9 above 450 were a no go even with F7 bioses.Quote:

Anyway good luck to everyone else.
Now I feel pissed, although I love this mobo dearly. It's the most stable thing I've ever owned (well... the competition is really DFI, some Abit mobos and a bunch of Asus p.o.s'es...), it's a real shame it doesn't go past 500FSB in my case.
But as usual, if it's free, you shouldn't complain. So I won't. I'll just buy myself an Asus P5B-E Plus and regret it the rest of my life...

~2.1 Vdimm. :)
F8i BIOS, but this doesn't matter because unfortunately it's nowhere near stable at these settings.
F8i, F8j & F8 final are all quiet slow in 3D benching compared to the F7 BIOS.
Noticeable slower in ... let's say ... '01 system tests. :(
The F8's aren't really useful for us with an E6600 or higher. We're not in need of very high FSB. But the F8's are probably a must for those with an E6300/E6400 Core 2 Duo.
I'm back to DS3 F7 BIOS on my rev.C2 S3 mobo.
I'm happy with the speed of this BIOS, the OC'ability of this BIOS is sufficient ( for my needs ) because my L628A E6600 isn't the greatest clocker in this sucky world. :D
I got no problems with my D9GMH & DS3. I'am using bios F8I.
1:1 divider 483Mhz 4-4-3-9 (max cpu freq )
4:5 divider 520mhz 4-4-4-12
damn guessing i'm going to hold off flashing. no real complaints with f7 so far
A little improvement for me, but I'm still having other hardware issues. Improved my OC a little, but nowhere near potential. Going to try my two good sticks instead of using 4. My PSU is terrible, I've been waiting for a month for my PSU RMA (Kingwin 600W mach1) and still nothing...
My ram will definately hold back my OC, they have elipda chips (PQI Turbo DDR2 667 4-4-4-12.) I've maxed 4 of them @ 910mhz 5-5-4-4 on my P5W DH (455mhz FSB.)
With the F8 bios, if an OC fails, it will reboot 3 times (the cycle where it turns on for 3 seconds and shuts off) but it then boots, sometimes at the same OC. It always saves my settings, just have to reenable the clock control.
can anyone confirm if the OC not holding on a cold boot is still an issue?
