So I'm having this strange issue with my board:
Sleep makes it go to sleep, then the board restarts 2-3sec after powering off... If I close the switch on the back of the psu (seasonic x750) and re-open it in the morning, it'll pick back up where it was at sleep (which is also quite strange).
Is there anything I can do to prevent this re-start on sleep issue?
Sounds more like hybridsleep to me. It's basically sleep and hibernate combined. When you use it, the data in the RAM gets written to the disk, but it's still retained. If you enable your computer again, you can start working again right away. If power to the RAM was disconnected, it will load the data from the HDD instead. Although it's slower, it's better than losing the data you were working on.
You must be using the latest BIOS, and be 100% stable for S3 sleep to resume properly.
I would also like to see a noob friendly primer on how to overclock a 980X on a GA-X58A-UD7. Which voltages need tweaked, which options disabled, different things to try. A basic setup that should work for 4+ GHz, something to try for 4.5+ GHz, etc. If this already exists on this thread, sorry I missed it, I haven't managed to wade through all 60 pages yet.
Don't know if it is an OS issue or has to do with the new BIOS but I was turning on my computer today and it showed a blank screen right before the OS load screen. Pressed the power button and it shut off and tried again. Worked fine thereafter.
Tested as always for stability and seems fine. Never did this before. I might revert back to F6c since I was able to crank out 4.5GHz. :shrug:
I have a 930 with 20x200 for 4Gz.
This is my LLC Load Line calibration mini experiment... anything under 1.28 for vcore CPUz reading will BSOD with LINX. btw LINX will say stopped unexpectedly (not enough memory?) with just 768 and the 10th run... I have 6 GB of ram...if i use the "ALL" setting LINX will BSOD on the 18th run with a 0x000007F error....

This is what i wanted... but common where is the logic... please help.
EIST nor C1E has to be enabled to resume from S3 sleep, you only need the latest BIOS (or not an old one) and to be 100% stable
I can resume from S3 sleep at 200+ Bclk and or 4.2GHX+, with speedstep disabled
Hi Hok,
this is where analog signalling techonogy shows. High frequency signals cause a phenomenon called overshoot and undershoot. A rising flank's voltage level tends to shoot higher than it's supposed level...which can kill parts of the chip, mainly the external bus driver transistor logic.
LLC disabled means the board sticks ti Intel's specification and reduces the high level of an electrical "1" until the maximum overshoot peak is 1.30 V in your case. Which means the average high level is like 1.26V, simply too little for the chip.
LLC level 2, or simply LLC enabled on other maker's board (ex. ASUS) disables the dropping but allows the overshoot to go to 1.36V for example and the average high level remains at 1.30.
Gigabyte's boards appear to have an intermediate level...Level 1.
You should look for screenshots of oscilloscopes showing digital signals with overshoot...
As I always say...the digital world is just an illusion, in the end it is all terribly analog!
Not a complaint or gripe but a word of warning. I updated my BIOS saturday morning to the X58A-UD5 F6F Beta and everything seemed fine until yesterday.
But apparently after the flash the firmware was not installed correctly with the Intel SATA and it's been a LONG road trying to figure out why I was getting random BSOD in windows and even my OSX would halt unexpectedly. Re-flashed and now all is fine, but for a while I thought I had trashed my chip or mb.
BE SURE TO TAKE PRECAUTIONS WHEN FLASHING AND FOLLOW THE GUIDE!!!
