Yeah, it's a pretty good board. I've currently got my W3520 running at 4.2Ghz 1.248V on my revision 1 board. I don't know if it was the BIOS updates that improved this board that much or my CPU which is from a good batch. Currently using F8m. Not sure if it's worth changing to one of the newer BIOS versions. Would I be missing anything if I stay with F8m?Quote:

I've flashed F9a bios, and it seams solid for now, I also updated my win7 to SP1 LOL :D I could start some testing soon. I would like to see how F9d performs on same OC. It's time to remove dust from this thread. :D Anyone played more with F9 bios series?
F9b and F9d are solid in my book.
It`s my main rig, Gulftown, 6 disks, GTX460 and 24Gb hynix 7-8-7-24 1T@1600.
Are they worth upgrading to from F8m?Quote:

Hi all,
Have not posted here for a long while, but I could do with some advice here please.
My UD7 was running fine on bios F7p - so you can tell I have not updated in quite a while.
Anyway decide to update to bios F9a on giga site because I thought I might need the larger than2.2 tera drives capability.
I failed to notice however - (stupid I know) that bios F9a was a beta.Anyways I installed as instructed using @bios(I hate updating bios
from within windows - always dangerous I reckon). It seemed to flash ok, and I set defaults and re booted before attempting to set up my settings -
which is usually the correct way. I am now having serious problems with booting - especially hard boots, it will either sit at C1 and do nothing or it will
go into boot looping without starting or allowing me to get to the point of being able to enter the bios.I usually have to re set bios or take battery out - even down to
1 mem stick etc before i can coax a boot out of the machine.
This is driving me mad and I would like to go back to previous bios, but it will not allow me to from the bios utility(F8) as it claims bios F7p is incorrect size - this seems to
apply to all previous bios I have tried.So what do i do now - i dont really want to chance @bios to go back.Helllpppppp please - any ideas of how I can get round this problem
Mark
Ps I am not overclocking - running standard.
Since you have been out of updating the bios for a while; Gigabyte did some changes. If a bios file is is 2048 kb or 2mb size you need to use @bios to flash. If you want to revert back to a older bios that has a smaller file size you need to use @bios to flash back. Q-flash can not handle the file size change from small to large or large to small. If the file size is the same q-flash will work.
I would try clearing cmos. Remove all hardware only leaving 1 stick ram cpu/heatsink and video card. If still no boot pull the cmos batter set the jumper to clear cmos upto 24hrs.
If and when you get system to boot and enter bios I would suggest try re flashing the new bios. Make sure to no keep dmi pool data and make sure load optimized defaults after flashing.
Like I said You will need to be able to boot to windows in order to flash back to your older bios.
Hi acebmxer,
Thanks for the reply.I have tried clearing cmos + the other things u mention - although I have not left battery out for 24 hrs.I think as I have managed to get into windows
now I will try flashing back with @bios - although I don't like the idea much I have to say.Wish me luck.
Mark
Yes it is not as safe as flashing with q-flash... When flashing in windows make sure the system is a stable as possible. Make sure the box is checked to clear dmi pool data.Quote:
Originally Posted by tipes

Call me mad if u like, but I couldn't understand why others were saying that bios f9d was ok - so have re flashed with q flash.Will see how I
get on with a cold boot tomorrow - if no go will flash back as discussed using methods above. Thanks much for your help - much obliged.
Mark
Update: Still no go,thought F9d was going to be ok,but it is still struggling to boot and keeps re setting my memory timings to less than standard i.e 1333 am using corsair
GT 2000 ram which is v reliable,but I can't even get it to run at spd settings which it should do.I think I am going to have to bite the bullet here and attempt to
restore my previous stable bios with @bios - not looking forward to this, and hope I don't end up with a brick!!!!
anyone got templet settings for over clocking a 980x say around 4.0ghz on air to start with to give me an idea , just got on of theses cheap so i will be swapping out the 920D0 the bios is on F9A rev.1 Ud7.
need to no safe/max volts ect any tips would be grateful:)

since going from 920D0 to the 980x i get hang on boot (like the mb is thinking) everything is working correct in windows just the boot is a tad slow over the 920D0 even though i have a higher clock and memory is maxed, anyone no? also running F9A bios.
been away mate for a bit, on f9 now also the site can get a bit slow due to me being in Uk even though i am on 50mb connection.Quote:

I just bought this mobo! :)
it won't post :(
error code is C1 - is this a problem with the RAM?
only thing I have devised is this:
when the RAM is plugged in, the error code displays 'C1' but also *very briefly* flashes - I cannot make out what it says in that very short moment
if however I take all RAM out, the error code displays 'C1' constantly, no flashing what-so-ever
any help/ideas?
swap the mem to different mem slots and clear the Cmos, but C1 is normally a memory incompatibility issue:( if you can try to update the bios on the board , using F9A Beta off the gig site at the moment. also reseat the Graphics card.
thanks heaps - will try.. if I get it to POST that is :(Quote:

cheers
the F9a is a 2mb bios you will need to use windows @Bios or that Flash.exe supplied then after that you can use the normal bios flasher, also remember to back your bios to the backup bios chip afterwards i think it is ALT+f12 on the boot screen (logo).
See if you can borrow some memory, hope you sort this issue.

no plans to upgrade now mate , i got a 980x at a good deal and sold the 920D0 for good money, them 980x 32nm chips run really cool compared and everyday computing is a dream 6-core is the future mate. i was going to go 2011 until i got that Cpu.
I think he is referring to the capabilities of running both Intel raid rom and the Jmicron raid rom together at the same time.
anyone running any RAID card(s) in their UD7? esp. LSI?

As far as I know was just the capabilities of running Intel raid rom plus the Jmicron raid rom together at the same time implemented. It is a mod.-BIOS though!:D
Everything else wasn't touched. So just push a stick into your board and flash it up like you did it so many times before, come on man;)
By the way you might allow being curios, how many Beths (English pounds) did you pay for your six core?
I am going to let a 3930K work on the X79-UD-7 in future- it is a six core as well, man
Running the D version. 24/7 stable, using 24Gb, etc.Quote:

Yo Nam-uk,
I like your British sense of humor!:rofl: Some times I am just busting nuts as well:ROTF:
A German speaking system would be a pain in the neck, in deed.
But back to your serious question: :)
Creating a RAID hooked up to the JMicron isn't a good idea because the controller shuts down at about 122 MB/s, moreover it is bent on PCIex 1.1.0. So that wouldn't perform pretty well.
Tow RAIDs on ICHR10 should be much better; the throughput could be at last ~600 MB/s (depends on the SSDs you chose) nevertheless TRIM does not work in a RAID area.
lol yea some do not like that sense of humor sometimes mate .
i did read the intel is better for Sdd though , and that marvel is not real Sata 6gb controller, well you do not get the 6gb suggested which is a kick in the nuts imop, you no the new intel 6gb,s drive trim will work with Raid 0 , not really interested in that yet though.
also were the hell is that thanks button on here i can not see it anywere or it is just me.

Close. I know my cpu is not the greatest. It will do 21x220 with 1.45v in bios with llc1 for 1.440 loaded but with HT disabled.Quote:

There is also 11.5.0.1111.
Are there any Problems with 11.5.0.1111 ?
Because it was the newest non-alpha one at the time, by request.
I can make one for you with 11.5 if you want, if so let me know and let me know which exact BIOS you want modified! No issues with it that I've heard about.
- Intel® RAID ROM 11.5.0.1111
- Realtek LAN ROM 2.45
- JMicron ROM 1.07.28
+ newest Marvell-Rom
For Board X58A-UD7 Rev 1 (F9D)
Or are there any problems with newest Marvell-ROM ?
Many thanks in advance !
OK, will do later this evening, and I'll PM you so you know it's here.
In the meantime, you look or ask around about the latest Marvell ROM, I don't use or advise those ports so I really haven't kept up lately with which version is faster/better. I can switch it out though if you want, reply back and let me know for sure if you want it or not, newest isn't always best so keep that in mind. I'll wait until you reply back on that, otherwise I'll leave it the version it already is.
Can you please send it to me also? :)
Thank you from Norway :up:

Very nice, thanks a lot,Lsdmeasap.
Anyone tested it already ?
You're welcome, I'm always happy to help!
It'll be fine, go ahead and test! :up:
I just always say untested if I do not personally have time to test myself. For this, I can test but my Ud7 is not setup right now, so I didn't test it.
The BIOS mod will be fine though, I mod them all the time without any issues, so it's OK to use for sure!
can't flash Bios F9 Mod Bios. Q-Flash says "Invalid Bios Image".
connecting an SSD i take it the intel is the best option over the marvel? and yes still on HDD as a boot drive, think i am the only person on plant that still is lol ,
also nice bios mod Lsdmeasap :clap: , also were is the thanks button on here? i no it is such a silly question but i just can not see it.. :mad:
Don't try it anymore then, thanks for the heads up! It might just be due to your older BIOS version or size difference? What BIOS are you on now?Quote:

So if that's it, no problem to fix (And sorry I did it!), I'll do the mod again and post for you tonight!
Yes, Intel is the best to use with SSD!Quote:

Horsi74, I'll test that shortly if you are reading this now! I bet I just used the wrong version to edit it, I always forget which works best for each board and doing many mods for various boards I sometimes forget to double check which version I'm using when I'm in mod mode :D
Thanks again Horsi74!!! :up:
That was the issue, I was modifying too many files that day, and mistakenly used the wrong version for this board!

You're great. Works perfect. Many thanks !
Great to hear all went smoothly for you this time around!
Really sorry about that previous file, I should have paid closer attention to what I was doing! The issue was I modified P67 and Z68 BIOSes several times that day, and then X58 in between, and they all need different versions of the tool used to work properly, but no matter what version you use they all look the same and look like they work too so it's hard to keep track if you are doing a bunch of mods at once. This taught me though, I'll pay extra close attention from now on, sorry again!
was thinking that even after the Bios marvel update, what speeds are we looking at max with a 6gb/s drive? , mate i can not see this dam thanks button that's why i have down none, can you do a screen grab to show me? dam daft this:(Quote:

As I've mentioned before, the latest marvell BIOS rom may not be the fastest either, but even if it is it's probably only 10-20MB/s faster than the others (if that). And I do not know which one is faster, I know there used to be an old one that was fastest, but I have not used those ports in so long I forget which it was and who showed me which one was better way back then so I can't even go ask them so I can grab it to compare to the most recent one.
The only drives I've ever tested on the Marvell ports are 128GB C300's, and that was on all older stuff (old ROM's, drivers, ect), you can see those results in my C300 review linked in my signature.
Haha, maybe you have an ad-blocker or something stopping the thanks button from showing up? If not, clear cookies and cache and sign back in and see if that helps.
It's here, under the avatars, on each post except your own posts :D
http://i.imgur.com/cuvnp.png
You should always prefer Intel ports over Marvell Ports (except Marvell 9182 seems to be good).
I don't have this "Thank-Button" either.
ok looks like it is the intel Port as things have not much changed,
this is what i see i.e not thanks also no running any adblockers

48GB of ram would be nice.
I have read that some x58 boards work with it although there is nothing in the specifications for the boards that it did work with.
I have ordered these sticks:

I'm only running at 1600 right now, if i bump my ram multiplier up then it doesn't boot.
not sure if i would notice teh differnce in day to day tasks anyways with faster ram.
how much qpi/vtt voltage do you guys need for that much ram?

1600 Speed is ok, you can also optimize the timings slightly.
I supposse I will need some more qpi/vtt with 48gigs.
I had a x58 UD7 on the shelf for about half a year and I pulled it out again however it will not go to post. It does get power and the indicator goes all over the place for 2-3 seconds and then it shuts itself down.
It's down to back stuff now some corais xms3 memory that I know works on the board a 6450 radeon and my 920 D0 that's all that is connected right now. All is on legacy as in PS2 ports and VGA connected in the hope to get to the bios but no luck If someone knows a trick then I would be very grateful.
a video of the boards code run
edit:
ok got a little bit further it stops at 69 which means according to the manual turn on L2 cache however nothing as to how I can do that kinda weird when it's on the cpu or if it's just a cpu that is starting to act up?
edit2:
Well I got it solved finally. The culprit was a small piece of dust that found it's way in one of the memory banks. Not the best way to spend your Saturday but it is solved :)

That is crazzy awesome strong imc you have in that cpu. My 930 needed 1.555v qpi/vtt for 12gb ram at 1600 and my 920 needs 1.435v qpi/vtt for 18gb at 1333 with 160 bclk.Quote:

Would it be possible to update the BIOS to the latest OROM from Intel? Currently its v11.5.0.1582, as you can see in the following thread:

Next is gonna be a 24 hour prime test and might do the 500 runs Linx 0.6.4. If those pass to thats super stable.
Ill post my bios template in a bit.

Anyone still using this board?
I'm in the market for another (rev 1 pref.) Cheers
yea still on the same board with a 980x , not missed a beat i really see no reason to upgrade and has tobe the longest i owned a Mb, only thing i would swap is the 680 just for sake of it or even get another SSD
Good to hear i'm not the only one who thinks that this platform is terrific. I've had mine since 2009 and still don't see a need to upgrade, although I did just buy a 780 gtx and a 6core xeon! hopefully the Xeon overclocks as good as my lovely i7 930, and even if it does I will never sell my 930 chip. It's one of the best!
i swapped the 920 a while back and the temps were miles better even got the clock i wanted i.e 4ghz i can go more just i hit 920 temps i mean your looking at 20c in some cases, heart was set on 2011 though but after looking i saw no reason, the only upgrade was SSD speeds even though i did get a intel 520 drive lol , was temped on 780 but i like to jump a generation, Maxwell is my next Goal
