Talking about B3 mine should be here tomorrow from newegg they did cross shipping for me , but I also gotta thank Lsdmeasap cause if the newegg didn't happen he had helped me with the gigabyte RMA :) , Im start from zero see if i get any different results with my proc and rams
so less issues with booting B3 than B2 Eldonko ?Quote:

I dont know if was same issue as you but when i booted my system in morning when it was cold and loop was about 19c I would always get boot issues then after second start all was fine . . . if bios corruption is finally gone I would considered this back as gigabyte quality , and be very happy as im tired of clearing bios on configuration changes . . . I have some memory mushkin redlines that was giving me problem with settings so im still using my super talents hopefully i get some better results :yepp:Quote:

Did you update to latest beta bios? As that makes things even better than F1 or F2...
Ill put it this way. I benched for 4 hours this afternoon with sub zero. Loads of bsod and freeze from pushing too far and I never had to reset CMOS once. With B2 every single freeze corrupted the dam BIOS. I could also tighten up secondaries and still boot which was a first. 10Mhz less that I achieved at the top end with B2 but that could be a slight degradation who knows. IMO B3 is a lot better, but it is because of a better BIOS, nothing is different hardware wise.

I figure it this way if i cant get a free B3 swap why not , my data is very important to me as i run two 1 terabyte backup drives on the effected ports , even if I lost 2ghz in speed I take reliability any day

Hey chuchnit the achi issues are only with me and two other people so far on a beta bios,Quote:

Thanks. I about hit the buy button last week on the MIVE but the EATX form factor stopped me. UD7 is my only other choice. :yepp: Stupid me is going with a cased build instead of a bench table. This is gonna be the daily grinder. Thanks :up:Quote:

I ran single, RAID x2, and RAID x 3 all with C300's
I do have a question since the pcie x1 port is all but useless. If I want to use my pcie x1 sound card in the bottom most pcie slot will that render pcie x16_1 slot down to x8 link? That useless x1 slot is my only real gripe about this board.
That should be fine.
The bottom PCIE slot is PCIE x8-2, and shares bandwidth with the PCIE x16-2 slot, so as long as you are not using the second PCIE x16 slot you will be fine running your sound card in that last x8 slot.
Quote:
2 x PCI Express x16 slots, running at x16 (PCIEX16_1, PCIEX16_2)
* For optimum performance, if only one PCI Express graphics card is to be installed, be sure to install it in the PCIEX16_1 slot; if you are installing two PCI Express graphics cards, it is recommended that you install them in the PCIEX16_1 and PCIEX16_2 slots.
2 x PCI Express x16 slots, running at x8 (PCIEX8_1, PCIEX8_2)
* The PCIEX8_1 slot shares bandwidth with the PCIEX16_1 slot and the PCIEX8_2 slot with PCIEX16_2. The PCIEX16_1/PCIEX16_2 slot will operate at up to x8 mode when the PCIEX8_1/PCIEX8_2 is populated.

Hi all guys,
I'm a little confused,
I'll get my UD7-B3 rev on tuesday, what is the best BIOS I should take? there are so many different version around.
If someone could show me the light :)
Thx !
F3C or whatever the latest B3 beta is.
nice setup,
is there any way to disable all the LEDS that are lit on the mainboard?
Kick your memory.
Memory setting 8-9-8-34 and stock voltage?
