Wth, i ordered it anyway. I havent seen many people using yorkies on the UD3 so i'll start my testing with a q9650 instead of e8600. It should be delivered tomorrow.Quote:

Hi there,
Just recieved my Gigabyte EP45-UD3R today, I also have the very latest BETA Bios for this specific motherboard from a Gigabyte Tech.
EP45UD3R.F4a
This is beta, I havent tried yet rigging my system up tonight. :up:
DO NOT USE for the EP45-UD3P
I had the same problem w/ my Q9550 E0. Solid stable at 450x8.5 w/ only 1.28v but crashed anything beyond that. I could do 500x8 or 475x8.5 for benches but prime crashed after 12~21 min. I've tried everything but nothing worked. The same happened using my previous P5Q Deluxe, but not benchable, so it's the chip, not the mobo. I got another Q9650 on the way, hopefully I'll be able to go over 4ghz 24/7 this time.
Board is installed and running at 500*9 4500mhz 1.39v in windows with the q9650. I changed the main voltages but left most everything on auto. I fail core 2 after about 5 minutes with blend or small fft. I think after some tweaking i'll be ok. What gtl would you guys recommend for yorkies? alright back to testing.....Quote:

I admit, we got it wrong, this CPU went south with 1.45V VTT and 1.4V PLL real on this board. :D I hate to say I told you so, but what the hell, I told you so. :rofl:Quote:

Maybe something was up with the initial batch of boards or the gremlins had a sense of humor screwing around with our first board. I just know as soon as I dialed it up a little, it went south. The new board never blinked on the first overclock.
I've had this board up and running an hour. I previously had 2-Striker 2 Formulas, 1-MSI P7N diamond, 1-EVGA 780 FTW,
2- Maximus 2 formulas and 1- Rampage Extreme.My goal was a Q9650 4500Mhz 500x9 on Air. None of the other boards could do it.
Closest stable was 490x9 with the MIIF. I've only had 1 BSOD with this board and it only took an hour for the beginnings of an oustanding OC session.
This is what i call FUN! I've booted into windows at 533X8 only to get my 1 and only BSOD after 10-15 seconds.
That was with no extra voltage over what i'm running now. I'll be checking for max FSB Next.
Thanks to napalm for some bios settings.

I only use 1 Graphics Card & I would never use dual GbE Lan or onboard dolby surround sound - got X-fi Titanium on the way anyway.
Hence why I chose the Gigabyte EP45-UD3R I think a majority of people bought the P version for the sake of it lol. :yepp:

Anyone up for 600fsb on a quad?! :D:D:D

Can you se it now?
First off WAYY too much VTT!!! I haven't gone over 1.52 for 530 quad fsb 3d benching stable, and even around there i was nervous! You really could have hurt your chip already...Quote:

More VNB--go to around 1.5~1.6 should get you stable. Though you shouldn't need that much for 475-480, i can get 500 at 1.5v so i'm guessing this is probably your cpu's limitations.
As I have told- tryed many different values and nothing helps:mad: (from 1.2 to 1.55 for VTT) Tryed 1.65V for VNB and its the same- isnt stable for 485mhz FSB!Quote:

Oh this is a E86? euugh that bites. i thought you were on a quad core, by which ~480 might be a reasonable fsb limit but...dang sorry that sucks.
Its the same with E8500 and E8600! Stability wall is about 480...Quote:

I'm not as stable as i want to be so i'm still adjusting.
Fail blend after about 45minutes.
I dropped to 8x multi and loosened memory timings
Priming has been going over an hour now. I will update
