So I gues the best bios for the ds3 for the highest fsb`s possible is currently the F3 bios from Gigabyte`s webpage ?

F4c is the preferred DS3 BIOS right now.

and why is that ? :)

How come CPU-Z still reads the F4C as F1 bios even though I have updated to them?

Mine did that when I flashed to F3. I then used @BIOS to flash to F4c and CPU-Z showed it correctly. YMMV.

Once again, please use it at your own risks, the above picture showing the successful screen after updating.

they said "After updating to F4e on 965P-DS3, there is no problem at all.
Please see the attached picture."

A few other guy`s and me have hexedited this bios, it`s definitely for the ds3. I`m gonna try this tomorow :D

thanks kenofstephen

I flash the bios with this new beta bios and seems to work ok but I want to know what the fixes are.

yes F3 is the best so far :) >>> for my two DS3 motherboards

bricking means destroy your ds3. I think F3 was the best, my mate in Holland get`s much more fsb and higher oc`s with the F3E

bricking = not good = like stoning but hurts more

With all this flashing is no one worried about it going wrong and wrecking the board especially when it doesnt have a removable bios?

Higher ratios seems to be a physical impossiblity it seems or they would have implemented it by now :confused:

I dont think it does since that does cost more to make. I think they have some sort of backup system where you always have the ability to flash the bios even if the main bios has been wiped - they then say as good as 'dual bios'

My E6400 can run to 3.60GHz. vcore1.500 (stable).

The fsb 481 @3.84GHz. SuperPI 1M can passed at 15.2sec. But I'm worry about it's too slow for 3.8GHz. cpu :confused: .

The max clock speed is 3.91GHz. but it's can't pass any tests. :p: http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc?id=111750

When I'm ruduce multiplier to 7x it's can increase the fsb up to 490 :D

This is the first Gigabyte mobo which I like! :clap:

things are definately looking up for this board. i switched from a 6400 to a 6600 and now the board is playing much nicer. using the f4e bios.

just with playing around. i was able to hit 3.7 with everything set at AUTO. only disable the USB legacy setting. i was getting too greedy and tryed for 3.8 and it froze big time. this was all done using the win app.

the only crazy this is when i set it at something like 2.9 or so i get a Super PI (16) of about 18 secs. but at 3.7 it got alot worse. like 25 - 27 secs. and the temps get ridiculous.

question here is does this thing not like nvidia cards. cuz i cant do crap with my 6800gt's but better result with a 6200. guess ill search the forums for a good x18 or x19 for sale.

i think i may be missing something. i dont see anything in the bios about throttling. i am using the f4e bios.

Definitly nice results Deschutes :banana:

That`s almost 4 ghz ! nice :D. I`m curious what your board does with an e6600 :woot:
