1.57v on a 32nm chip, that must be sergio :D
dude u crazy!!!!
try a wprime for next time :up:
wow very nice and vcore is still nice for speed Sergio MAKE THAT 2600K SCREAM . . . :up:
Just recieved my board and got it all up and running on water.
this board has f6 bios and 10 load line cal settings.
got a 2600k what would u ppl do to hit 4.6 ghz 24-7 stable.
not used to this board had a asus p8p67 deluxe board before.
and what llc setting would be best form 1 to 10.
thx in response ;)
decided to do some benches on my stable 24/7 clocks

LLC between 5 and 7 are the only ones worth using, but LLC6 still has some droop at high load, and while LLC7 doesn't have that droop, both LLC6 and LLC7 have erratic voltage spikes, sometimes going as much as 0.030v higher than what you set in BIOS, at *light* load.
I got my GA-P67A-UD7-B3 board back now, finally. I have tried to overclock with the latest BIOS F4 from Gigabytes website, but it won't boot at anything past 4.9Ghz. I then flashed F3H and i was able to overclock back up to 5.5Ghz and run a few benchmarks. Otherwise the board seems pretty good.
Just a quick question though: is LLC Level 2 a bad idea for a 24/7 overclock?
My previous overclock was 4.5Ghz with 1.285v set in BIOS with LLC level 2, but some people have been saying your shouldn't use LLC Level 2 for a 24/7 overclock.....??
You couldn't do past 4.9 ghz ? Sounds like PLL Overvoltage wasn't working ....
I noticed you said you used F4.
Someone with a UD4 board said F4 wouldn't overclock his chip past 4.4 ghz unless he raised VTT to 1.2v and adjusted VCCSA up slightly. He went back to F3D (or F3B?) and he was back up to 4.8 ghz on all auto voltages (besides vcore).
I know PLL overvoltage worked fine on UD5 on both F3 and F5, but there definitely seem to be issues with F4......
Can do 5Ghz+ here no problem with F4 BIOS, and don't need anymore Vtt than any other BIOS (Stock or lower depending on memory), nothing wrong with it at all as far as I have seen.
F4 no problem at all here:up:
I have flashed to f4 2 times and spent a couple hours trying it but was unable to do the same clocks for benching as before. I tried all the llc's 1-10 but have trouble getting into windows at 5600mhz, not sure how good it is for 24/7 stability, Im taking a break from linx and blend. I finally gave up on f4 and went back to f3h, maybe its my settings that are wrong idk :shrug:
Damn :D
Load temperature?
There's a BIG surprise incoming, get ready!! :D
What ? ...
Still testing........
http://i4.aijaa.com/b/00012/8052443.jpg
It's modded BIOS Z68X-UD7-B3 - F6c with Hex Editor.
BIOS working in normal way and Touch BIOS working well.
Let me test a few more things....will post link soon with detail.
Edit:
pic above I already flashed in normal way with BIOS F6.
http://i6.aijaa.com/b/00195/8052535.png
OK,here is modded BIOS Z68X-UD7-B3 - F6c with Hex Editor XVI32 (working only for P67A-UD7-B3 BIOS):
http://www.mediafire.com/?43stclpfddy5d1p
Before flashing,set in the BIOS "Optimized Defaults"and Disable "GSATA" and "eSATA" option.
Before flashing in Windows,with latest @BIOS 2.12,
Untick "Load CMOS Default"!
(Tick Clear DMI data Pool if you want that CPU-Z show Z68X-UD7-B3)
After restart,BIOS will "hang" on BIOS Screen for about 2-3 min.
"OROM UI and Banner"should be Disabled with latest Touch BIOS
in the Windows.Also Disable anything what you didn't use.
Restart and after should be OK.
Flash with latest "normal" BIOS F6 (Main and Backup).
Later on,I'll make modded BIOS,for flash back to P67A-UD7-B3 BIOS.
Edit:
Modded BIOS to flash back to P67A-UD7-B3 BIOS F4:
http://www.mediafire.com/?a46ufpvham739zl
So basically with the modded Z68X-UD7-B3 bios on P67 board you can use all future Z68 normal bioses?
I gotta try this.
EDIT: First start with optimized defaults OK, some minor bios options missing but works. Set my 24/7 bios settings, boot to windows and most of the bios options, almost all bios options are missing. Basically can't do/set anything. Going back to normal P67 bios. Will wait for proper P67 support, I hope...
The flash worked fine, no hangups on first reboot. New TouchBios looks nice, Thanks for the hard work Stasio.:up:
For those who didnt like bios f4, you wont like this bios either. It has 10 LLC options and again I cant get into windows to bench at 55-56x. Tried LLC 1-10 again and for me, it is not as good as F3H.
But for those who had good results with F4, this should be nice to play with.
(yes I know, wrong thread, but with all the fun people in there, I thought I'd ask why I'm able to resume from S3 sleep with PLL overvoltage ENABLED (on F3g...on F5, it just boot loops and reposts to BIOS...)
Boot from bios 107.9bclk on new bios, vcore is kinda high. Will give it more time and see how it does.
Maybe clear CMOS after the flash, with power supply off and board drained of power for a minute or two with power on button? Then load optimized once you reboot back to BIOS (Waiting 1-2 minutes to get there :D )
No problems here, even with a B2 board, but I did not use Stasio's BIOS though.
http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/9...p67z68xpng.png
lol so you got Touch BIOS on your UD7 B2?
Hehehe, yes :D
I'm sure they will release soon for P67 anyway, haven't heard when though?
Anyone with touch bios for UD7-B3?
Thanks
See the end of page 94 Dumo
Ya, no BIOS or Touch BIOS issues here, all seems to work just fine. So if you are having issues be sure to fully clear your CMOS then once done load optimized and reboot, flashing the backup to Z68 may help as well but it worked fine for me even before doing that.
You guys are right... Those P->Z->P bios flashings are really weird. Now I'm back on P67 F4 bios and CPU-Z 1.57.1 still shows my board as Z68X-UD7-B3 and reads VTT as Vcore... Clear CMOS didn't help.
Gonna see if removing CMOS battery for the night will help.
Reflash with FlashSPI, and do a 30 second clear cmos after the flash is complete (power off, unplug PSU, press case button while unplugged, then short the clear cmos jumpers for 30 seconds).
This will fix that completely.
Anytime man, I thought maybe you missed it :)
Hi to all,
I was wondering if some of you guys (OC Nub, Andressergio, Lsdmeasap, Falkentyne) could show your bios settings, maybe voltages and cpu settings.
I have got to 5400+ but not truthfully knowing completely what I'm altering in the BIOS. I'm thinking that a few bios posts could reduce my head scratching.
Also, i have to go with the F3h bios. Seems best one to work with.
I honestly don't know what bios settings to give you.
I can say one of my 2600k's (the one that runs hotter cuz it has a lower vid) is 12 hours prime stable (tested three 12 hour loops) at 4.5 ghz 1.260v load (1.290v bios llc1), HT on, and no problems in games at all at 5 ghz 1.452v load (1.420v bios llc2). I'm just trying to find enough vcore in bios at 5 ghz to avoid idle bsod without going too high, since there's vrise from idle by about 0.024v from idle to max load. And I don't want to use LLC1, as I need like 1.490v in bios for 1.440-1.452v load. Don't know what else to give you. What's funny is the idle BSOD (last one was at 1.415v bios llc2) is always "Uncorrectable hardware error 0x124" while any prime or game bsod is usually 0x101 (secondary processor crash).
All other voltages are set at auto, besides pll overvoltage, which I need for higher than x49 (or about 4590 mhz is the wall with it disabled).
My other (first) 2600k that has a higher vid and runs cooler, needs a lot more vcore for 4.5 ghz (like 1.290v load instead of 1.260v) and like 1.470v+ for 5 ghz, yet this processor doesn't seem to idle BSOD with LLC2. Anyway I'm burning this chip to death at 5.3 ghz 1.584v load, to see just how much it can take (also, sort of a degradation test for my lower volt chip), at least I can play games at this speed.
Nothing helped even after power disconnect/battery removed overnight. This morning the board didn't want to start, no fans no anything, like there wasn't any power. Disconnected the 24-pin ATX connector, tested the PSU (green<->black shorting-OK) and started after that. But still identifies as Z68 board. Flashed it with F4 bios from Giga site (using my own modded F4) and that was the fix. Back to my modded F4 and all is good. Apparently my modded F4 bios doesn't override some chip arias or something...
Ooh, and why after no power/no battery overnight the power button and power LEDs are still on?!?! Even with 24-pin ATX disconnected... W(here)TF is power coming from!?!?!?
im waiting modded bios for my angry UD4-B3.....
thanks nvidia drivers optimized for multiprocesor and NF200 :up:
http://img804.imageshack.us/img804/5...53dm11new1.png
amazing drivers :up:
RAID...
And yes, Z68X have latest Intel RAID ROM v10.5.0.1034 for the SRT to work. My modded P67 bios has it too along with some other things. So that might be the issue. Otherwise it works great.
come on GIGA get up, you are great ! or Asus will take the lead again...
as a UD7 user i want a tool for UD7 not that i have to go Z68 to P67A...its ok with the UD7 B3 to B2 but not the other inmo
cheers !
Sergio
Thanx.
I was just wondering what exact settings ppl were putting in to get their systems into the OS and benching. I'm not trying to pass the wall of my two cpus which I know is not possible but rather to see if I've input settings that could be holding me back.
I havent been able to do any 3D yet, I cant get it stable enough to pass a test :confused: Maybe due to temps, summer is on its way.
I would be glad to help but I havent figured this bios out yet. Ill post settings if I ever get it stable enough to bench.
Trying high bclk again, scores arent great but it stays in windows for a couple easy beches. Boot from bios, started losing drives at this point, raised PCH to 1.18v and that seemed to fix the issue.
I have had issues on this B3 UD7, the B2 UD7, and theB3 UD5 with the reset switch, also clear cmos button not working properly, even removing the battery for a long cmos clear sometimes doesnt work. Sometimes the only way to get the systems to boot after a failed oc is by removing a stick of ram. Also when switching to a different kit of memory, clearing cmos first doesnt help and the board wont boot. Have to start with a single stick to get it to boot. This is getting old very fast now, 3 boards all having the same issues.
The new touch bios looks nice but... could you please spend more time making the features advertised with this board work properly first? So we who spent our hard earned money to buy your product feel we are getting what we paid for. I am about to jump ship and move to another brand, so are a couple other long time loyal Gigabyte customers I know of.
There is another thread in XS by Leeghoofd about issues with turbo not working, I cant get turbo to work either. I have no need for it, but there are people that would like to run the board stock and they should be able to do so, and be able to count on all the features working the way they are suppose to. I dont really care if someones demo/loaner/review=free board works properly, my concern is for the people who paid for the board. But you would think Gigabyte would at least take the time to make sure a board sent out for a review would function the way it was designed to.
I am making an official report to GB about the turbo issue, as i am experiencing it as well. I have a P67A-UD7-B3, a Z68X-UD7-B3, and a Z68X-UD3H
well to be honest after using mine for a few days it went back in the box and is for sale.
it just seems buggy especially for a flagship product, very unlike prior Gigabyte products, all I know is that I have been nothing but happy with Asus's P67 offerings.
For the turbo boost... manually enable the C1E, C3/C6 support in BIOS rather leave it in "Auto". You set "auto" means u agree the BIOS to do the action for you and yes there's BIOS rule inside.
:yepp: but bios is better and overclocked kids 2500k with less juice
+ boots faster
considering it a much cheaper board;)
i rate it = to the ud7
but better cause of less juice required
and i paid 150$ for it bnib
asus totaly owns gigabut on bios ;)
gigabut gonna do like they did in the past they gonna suk ass on bios suport on the ud7 since z68 is out
anyone want a ud7 for 225$
i want a MIVE:yepp:
flagship ud7 :rofl: more like a ud3p
This F6 bios is buggy. Back to the good 'ol F4:D
Lsdmeasap help me to solve the problem (and test). :up:
eSATA option is the problem, not Intel ROM or that new ROM setting in the BIOS, you can set that anyway you want.
But main issue is eSATA setting so anyone that flashed already from yesterdays BIOS files can just wait at the splash screen until they can enter the BIOS, or wait until windows loads and then disable eSATA via BIOS or Touch BIOS.
So these have new RAID Rom (Which didn't matter), and a instruction on how to flash and make the hang stop once you flashed over to Z68X-UD7.

Got to agree here. I bought this board expecting great things. I've been too busy with life to use it much lately though. What amazes me is the lack of BIOS's to come out while I've been waiting to finish my build. Plus when I did get to bench it (used shipping F2 + all F3 betas) I just found myself frustrated. Trying to push the limits got me boot loops. It just seems a lot of my buddies with Asus and other boards have much more stable systems.
First I have to say this is one of the better P67 boards ,has lot of features runs like a regular user board , for a regular user it is well , but now for a flagship product , im really disappointing in gigabyte , Im a big fan of giga also but this whole bios situation has gotten a little old 5months later, giga actualy sending out beta bios as normal bios last time i was using. .
2nd thing bothering is simple llc 1 voltage droops like a @#$% for me to ride 1.440 on load , I have to ride my proc at 1.485 in windows on idle , this is b3 b2 every bios ive tried . .
Last but not lease the pci express slot are right on top of each other , and my 6970 cant breathe with me having a xfi card installed. .
This was a love and hate relationship giga ... Asus here i come obviously ,
..
Manually enabling the C States in the bios gives sort of proper turbo function again, still have to retest the UD5 B3. I just want it correctly implemented for stock users, no bios tricks for enhanced stabilty or compatibility. You just don't downclock a CPU to gain stability. If the turbo feature works on other boards, so should it also work on yours...
But performance of the Z68 UD3H seems not good compared to the old P67 boards... expected better of the new chipset
Indeed to me the lesser board of the complete lineup, P67 Pro or dlx far better choice (if it has to be an Asus board ofc)
These bios are killing me. I reverted back to F4 as that is the most stable for me. The F6 bios is very flakey. Brought back the boot loop again.
It is a love hate with this board. I have a chip that I know clocks very well but on this board and with these bios it's like pulling teeth.
I had the M4E and sent it back for this. I now question that.:shakes: But for what I wanted to do it's the only game in town that works for me. And I mean this hardware wise. Running trifire with an Xonar in the PCIx1 slot all cooled on water. I couldn't use my Xonar and all 3 cards in the M4E.:mad:
F3H bios on LLC1 should be perfect stable mate, so weird that F4 is working for ya
yes LLC1 has big drop but well im stable 5GHz HT 1,47 set on bios dropping to LOAD 1,416 and IDLE 1,452 wich is OK for me
cheers !
hope giga comes with a charming bios im really start to worry on all this
Its GBs board lol not mine, so yea i agree I want full performance at stock that should be given.
Anyways I have the UD3H right here, just haven't had time to put it under the bench, I am guess you are referring to 3d benches with Virtu? As i heard that virtu negatively impacts 3d performance in i-mode.
BTW anyone against changing the name of this thread to Z68/P67?
^ OK by me.
If thing arent fixed soon it wont matter, I wont be reading it anymore anyway. Ill be joining one of the Asus P67 threads.
The only thing about MIVE is my 1st. 58X chip "KIA" with it:(
It was a traumatic experience:D
testing a new set of GSkill 2133 8-9-8 on . . . the MIVE:D
http://i.imgur.com/XRvYm.png
Finally was able to get 05 to finnish 1 time before flashing back from z68 bios.
This bios seems to score about the same as the others.
^ Thank you. I have had a lot of fun with the 460's and 470's.
The best way to get the highest score possible in 05 IMO other than OS tweaks is to get memory up to speed with lowest possible timings. With the hypers at 2150mhz+ cas7 7 7 GT1 and GT2 scores much higher. If I use my other kits I need 2200+ 7 10 7 to get similar score.
I give up on this board. I don't know if it's the :banana::banana::banana::banana:ty bios, me or what. I know my chip can do x52+ but on this board i can't get it past x49 no matter what I try. I'm really at the point that I'm about to smash this POS. I have never been this frustrated before with a board. I just can't figure it out with this board.:shakes:
stasio the new et6 works only for newer bios ? :confused:
im using LLC1 on BIOS F3H
http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/7432/et6.png
should be there a programming statement separting bios version under F4 to assign LLC1/LLC2 and rest LLC1---LLC10
cheers !
