Can it be something alont the lines of ATX 12V V2 or 2.2 and Intel ATX 12V V2.3 & SSI EPS 12V V2.92
causing this?
I am not willing to spend addinitonal 200$ or something similar for a new PSU without defenitiv proof of the PSU been faulty.
Do you know the exact spec for P8Z77 WS in terms of its ATX specification ?
Raja i believe was watching a Youtube vod with you the other say, and i now have great respect for your skills.
HI
I buy yesterday ASUS P8Z77-V Deluxe + Intel I5 3570K
I am a portuguese noob bastard, and I need help to make the overclock..
why nobady share specks in bios? with values to people see and get a "reference"
what I need to chage in bios?
I have this:
BLK = 100
Ratio CPU = 40
Vcore = 1.10
PLL = 1.80
SA = auto
DRAM = 1.50 (1866mhz 9 10 9 9 27 2TB)
Turbo = disable (what is turbo?)
Load line = auto (what I put here?)
C1E C2 c3 (I have enabled, is good?)
why I make overclock and on boot I see 3400mhz and on windows I have 4000mhz ?
please share speaks from the bios and say to me what I need to change
thanks!
ASUS MULTICORE ENCHANTEMENT = ENABLED (what is this and what i select)
INTERNAL PLL OVERVOLTAGE = ENABLED (what is this and what i select)
EPU POWER SAVING MODE = DISABLED (what is this and what i select)
CPU SPEED SPECTRUM = DISABLED (what is this and what i select)
INTEL SPEEDSTEP TECNHOLOGY = DISABLED (what is this and what i select)
CPU LOAD LINE CALIBRATION = AUTO (what is this and what i select)
VCCSA = i have 0.95 (what is this and what i select)
VCCIO = AUTO (what is this and what i select)
PCH VOLTAGE = AUTO (what is this and what i select)
TURBO MODE = ENABLED (what is this and what i select)
CPU C1E = AUTO (what is this and what i select)
CPU C3 REPORT = AUTO (what is this and what i select)
CPU C6 REPORT = AUTO (what is this and what i select)
PACKAGE C STATE SUPORT (what is this and what i select)
what is THREADS ? and where is option in bios to trehads?

@ psychopath
I will go as far as to say this
BLK = 100
Ratio CPU = 40 thus the reason you get 4000Mhz. The motherboard is set to auto adjust the cpu values. More of the CPU ratio will give higher clock.
100*45 = 45000Mhz or 4.5Ghz
The other options you better set to auto.
In fact leave everything to Auto. if not 4.0Ghz is not enough how many more do you want?
I would also suggest to read the 1st page of this thread about the 2 guides in order to get a better understanding.
I watch a youtube reviews in the bios.. and my overclock is done
at moment I have only 4200Mhz to see if all is stable
But I have 1 problem, my overclock is OK and stable, but if I shutdown my computer.. when I turn on again, pc not boot.
But if I press button "BIOS" (behind USB ports) I see a blue ligth and If I turn on again my pc, pc boot normaly and overclock works fine..
On motherborad I have error code A2
what is this problem? why not boot when shutdown without press button?
(sory for bad english --')
I just received a Maximus V Extreme and i7-3770k today. I've had problems with other Z77 board using the Areca 1882 series so I purchased the top of the line hoping it would work properly. I updated the bios of the motherboard and raid card to the most current version and still the Areca will only initialize properly (somewhat properly - it shows up as 8x/8G instead of 8x/5G ) when placed in the Black PCI-E slot. In any of the Red slots I get initialization errors which prompts me to click any key to continue but the USB is having trouble recognizing my devices with the raid card installed. The same card works perfectly in the P9X79 Deluxe and Maximus 4 Extreme, regardless of which PCI-E slot it's installed in. Is there a beta bios available that I can try?
Have you tried Areca in 1st red slot and VGA in 2nd red slot ?
Latest beta bios is 0095 : http://kingpincooling.com/forum/show...t=1828&page=15
My 1882-12 works perfectly. The only difference between the 2 cards is the main processor in the -12 is identified as 800MHz PPC440 and in the -24 it is 800MHz PPC440 RevD1. Both of them work in my other 2 boards.
Can we make a request to put intel rapid storage raid bios and drive checking at the end of all bios activities please? The way it is now with my p8z77-v pro thunderboard goes like this:
I turn in on, wait for post beep, then wait for monitor to turn on. This is connected to integrated gpu.
By the time this monitor #1 shows the last screen for a couple secs before booting into the boot chain. Ive tried going from 4 to 8 sec on wait delay, but that didnt help, and its frustrating because i want to see status of raid in dos.
If i use discrete gpu/monitor, this is where i will see it or a half sec before disappearing. So frustrating!
Hi peeps just got my mobo currently testing with i7 2600K and 4 x 4GB Sammy green. This pro model has no VTT settings so im guessing you have to increase VCCSA. Has anyone got this combo 2600K + sammy green 16GB or i7 3770K + sammy green. IVB supposed to be betta wid high freq modules, what kinda speeds could one expect from the above combos?
So far everything runnin nice wid i7 2600K @ 4.8GHz only issue ive had so far is sometimes when i switch on PC it turns off once then on again and boots fine. poss bios issue? where are all the beta bioses?
Sabretooth Z77 WOES...
Tested this motherboard (1504 bios) for a review with i7 3770K and 8GB 2666C11 rams... All was fine, till I popped in the 2600K. The Sabretooth is very stubborn to boot up. Usually hangs at the RAM LED. If I'm in windows and running the test suite, it sometimes weirdly locks up, looses video signal,...
Workaround at the moment for the boot issue :
Boot with 1 dimm set all the timings and voltages. Shut down, insert the 2nd DIMM then the rig posts fine. Till I shut down then the PC hangs again at the DRAM LED.
If I pop the i7-3770K back in, all is fine and the board even boots with 2800C11-14-14-31 8GB... With the Sandy I lower the ram speeds to 2133C9-11-10-27 2T and the boot behaviour is erradic again.
Then tried the 2600K and the G.Skill RAM kit on a G1 Sniper M3 and Gene V combo and all works perfectly fine there. If I use 2x 2GB PSC rams then everything works like a charm...
Messed with RAM timings, voltages, I just can't get it to boot 100% all the time. If it boots into windows, it has a hard time to remain stable with the i7-2600K CPU... RAM are verified witrh HCI Memtest, 200% stable
Is there an issue with SB, High Volume RAM kits and Sabretooth Z77 ? Any other user or super ASUS tech support guys plz chime in...
Hardware used:
Sabretooth Z77 ( 1504 bios )
Intel i7-2600K@4.5Ghz
G.Skill TridentX 2666C11 2 x 4GB (tested at 2133C9-11-10-27 2T 1.65Vdimm), GeIL 16GB 2133C10 Veloce kit: same issue. With G.Skill PSC kit 2 x2GB all is fine !
ASUS Geforce GTX480 ( 301 WHQL driver )
Western Digital Caviar Green 1TB HDD
Cooler Master 1200W PSU
Thanks for any input, this board has left me stumbled as it works prefectly fine with Ivy, but seems to have lost Sandy out of sight.
I ran i7 2600k on my mobo along with samsung 16GB ulv. 4.8Ghz & 4.9GHz no probs. I then tried new i7 3770K started getting funny boots (i wud restart and pc wud shutdown then start again) I uninstalled all of AI suite and somehow the cold boot problem dissapeared. managed to get i7 3770k @ 4.8Ghz needs round 1.36v im seriously considerin to make it lidless and put some liquid pro on it.Quote:

If you set XMP ur mem settings shud set auto (VCCIO) and dont hav that setting on the PRO :( wheres all the beta bioses guysQuote:

PC hanged or boot cycled loads i had to Power off with switch held for 4-5 secs then start again. PC booted with oc failed msg. Went back into bios and left it at DDR 1600 8 8 8 24 1N 1.45v (4 x 4GB) so far no probs. Damn shame was expecting so much from this mem.Quote:

More volts on the rams. I can run 2x4GB Sammy low profile at 2400 10-12-12-25 1T at 1.53V but for 4x4GB i need 1.575V.
Thanx will try ur settings what bout secondary & third timings. VCCSA volts? i dont have VCCIO on this pro mobo. If someone could kindly put up bios pics i wud b very greatful.Quote:

I have a 60Gb ssd from ocz to do the cashing.
Is it possible to utilise only the ssd portion of the IA suite without loading the whole IA suite?
Is there an alternative SW that can be used for SSD Cashing, to the one provided with IA suite? ( i know i did not bought the ocz cashe ssd)
Thank you
Intel RST driver... (you have to install OS in RAID or manually change the iastor setting in the registry) AI suite eats resources
any chances to see an update to ASUS SSD Caching V1.00.07 for Windows XP/2008/2008 R2/7 32bit & 64bit.
For the P8Z77 WS
What is the importance of the onboard molex connector to feed more Wattage to the motherboard.
When / at what level of usage does the motherboard need the extra power and how is that working out.
For example. At about n.n Ghz you need to have the additional power connector in place.
When using n SSD/HDD you need to have that in place.
Also
Are there any PCU specification requirements for this board ie ATX12V v2.1 not recommented Or ATX12V v2.2 and EPS12V or ATX12V v2.3 etc..
Thank you
Just paid for my Sabertooth Z77 and it's on the way! Looking forward to messing around with this board. Will be running 2600K and 16 Gb of 1866
I hope your Saber board behaves better then mine, with Ivy all is fine here with the Corsair Plats 16GB 2666C11, but once I pop in my 2600K it only boots with max 4GB ( 2 x 2 or 1 x 4GB Dimm) Boot behaviour is very erratic with 2 x 4GB , leave alone 2 x 8GB dimms... no matter the speed selected, XMP profile,...
I have a 3570K on standby.
I am dealing with a strange problem> i have the deluxe version of the motherbooard and Intel I5 3570K processor.
In Win7 through the turbo evo app and having a multiplier of 45x i can reduce the voltage until 1.24 volts in offset mode and be stable but i cant boot with this voltage when i manually set it from bios (no offset mode).
In fact i cant even boot even if a set it at 1.35v. there is alwayz a blue screen as soon as i log on to windows.
In bios i have the following settings:
aI tUNER: xmp
BLK = 100
Turbo ratio manual
Ratio CPU = 45
Ratio synchronising control enabled
Epu power saving mode disabled
Memory frequency : 1600
PLL = AUTO
CPU bus speed = auto
DRAM Voltage = Auto
Turbo = enabled
Load line = auto
CPU :Spread spektrum auto
All other voltages are set to auto.
DIGI control is pretty much left to its default
C1E C2 c3 disabled
Can anyone tell me why this happens?
Does anyone have a link to a diagram or page that explains the differences between Asus' 19 different versions of their Z77 boards so I don't have to comb through the entire thread?

Everything can be found on ASUS site, takes just as long to type in all of them different mobo types... if you want to compare so many boards it's time to do it yourself, c'mon...
It's not exactly that simple, especially for someone who has been out of the overclocking mix for 4 years. The majority of the content on the product pages is marketing jazz created by a marketing team that doesn't understand creating 9 versions of essentially the same product is a terrible idea.

In a California gourmet market, Professor Iyengar and her research assistants set up a booth of samples of Wilkin & Sons jams. Every few hours, they switched from offering a selection of 24 jams to a group of six jams. On average, customers tasted two jams, regardless of the size of the assortment, and each one received a coupon good for $1 off one Wilkin & Sons jam.
Here’s the interesting part. Sixty percent of customers were drawn to the large assortment, while only 40 percent stopped by the small one. But 30 percent of the people who had sampled from the small assortment decided to buy jam, while only 3 percent of those confronted with the two dozen jams purchased a jar.

million dollar question: What do you need ?
- define Budget ?
Onboard graphics output required ?
Many S-ATA ports ?
SLI/Crossfire (2-3 GPUs)
Overclockability to ... ( 4.5-5Ghz )
Wireless LAN onboard ?
Thunderbolt required ?
If you can nail it down to eg 5 boards you can compare them on the ASUS website.
The V LE series mostly have the S-ATA ports in an upright position, which is comon on low end series, this can be a pain if you install a GPU with a big cooler or multiple GPU's and you need to use all the S-ATA ports. Premium boards have extra features like extra USB front headers, WIFI sometimes etc...
My 5 cents :
If it's for gaming and one GPU : Gene V is a brilliant mobo
Daily work : Z77V or V pro
Hardcore gaming with multiple GPU's : The Formula board
I would agree with those sentiments - I have the formula and its great.Quote:

Thanks for the advice. I went ahead and got the Gene V. I definitely miss the days when the elite motherboards were no more than $150 though!Quote:

I have tried all settings in bios for the slots, auto, GEN1, GEN2 and GEN3. No matter what i set it to, it stays at 8x and 1x.
I'm on bios 1101 and Catalyst driver 12.8 Tried at least 10 different drivers the last days, all to no avail.
For P8Z77 WS there is a new Bios update market: P8Z77 WS formal released BIOS version 3105
Any one tried it out?
Read on the VIP forums about one having issues with it.
I just powered up a new ASUS P8Z77-V and I was hoping it would come with one of the latest BIOS versions but I have 0906.
I will be using Windows 7 64-bit and it's unlikely I'll ever update to Windows 8.
I don't want to use a beta version so should I use the latest BIOS or an earlier one?
These were the available versions that I saw on the ASUS support site.

1406 was no good for some people, when pushing delete to get in the bios sometimes it wouldn't work. I'm using 1504 on mine with Windows7x64 for a while now and it works great.
I just got a new asus p8 z77 pro v that came with the 1406 and I can get into the BIOS. When I went to the ASUS site a few days ago that version was not up for win 7 64.
I was wondering if there was something wrong with 1406 and if I should flash to 1504?
Just checked ASUS site again and it is not there (1406)???
For now I've updated to the 1504 BIOS.
After I've got some hands on experience with my new toy I'll move it to a HAF 932 that's full of water cooling components.

Bios 1616 is out now for P8Z77-v
Have this strange problem.
Updated my bios from 0703 -> 3205 and everything went fine and I decided to put my OC back again and then save+exit bios.
Then this thing wouldnt boot so I had to reset CMOS and then I got it to boot again.
But now the system only detects 8gb out of 16gb. And I have no options to change multiplier and so on.
System is
ASUS P8Z77 WS
Intel 2600K
4 x 4GB Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz
I've tried everything from backflash back to 0703 etc but nothing works. Is my board bricked or is the CPU damaged in some way?
Solved it by using afuwingui and ticked "program all blocks"
Now everything works!
Guys, I have a weird issue that I get when using my KVM but only when my Gene-V is plugged in. My KVM is an Aten 2-way DVI USB KVM with 3D/120Hz support, if I install it the way the manual/labels say then I get boot straight to bios with kb ( Razer Lycosa)showing in bios but it works only intermittantly, the illumination flickers wildly as if the usb cable is being plugged and unplugged randomly. If I use the mouse port my mouse can not move the cursor. So if I plug the kb and mouse direct to mobo it all works properly. I just RMA'd this KVM for this issue and the new one is exactly the same, any ideas what it might be?
:-(
Hola, i need some help. I updated my Bios in my P8Z77-V LK and now i get stuck in x34 multiplier in Bios ??? No matter what i do it wont change multi after the Bios update the latest one 0904 , i re-flash with older Bios but no go , still does the same after flashing older Bios , i took the batterry out overnight and clear cmos many times and still this bug wont go away im still stuck at x34 multi on my 3770K aso it happens in my 3570K ? now i cannot overclock on this board , 2 weeks ago it was fine and i was running 6300+ on LN2 on this budget board with no cold bug full pot. i updated all my Z77 Asus mobos to the latest bios and all are fine no bios bug , MVE , Z77-V , Z77-V PRO, this happens only on this board. Any help , guidance will be trully appretiated. Thank you in advanced.
Kind Regards: Angelo
Maybe there is a problem with Intel MEI (Management Engine Interface). See if you can update MEI firmware. There should be version 8.1 for your motherboard (Download -> Firmware).
When will Asus ftp be up again, want to try the new 1502 bios :)
A link for that bios?
I got the same issue that most of you guys had it, my new z77 Sabertooth + i5 3750K, don't accept four memory sticks :down:
I did all the solutions that every one suggest. but no go.
Then i return the stupid sabertooth and i bought ASUS Maximus V Formula, and it boot with my four G.Skill sticks 4X4GB without any problem. :up:
Does anyone here know any Z77 motherboards (ASUS or otherwise) that support RAID cards?
I bought an Intel DZ77RE-75K and although it works with my old 3ware 9650SE-12ML, it refuses to work with my new Areca ARC-1223-8i card, so I purchased a LSI 3ware 9750-8i and that didn't work either.
Is it a chipset thing? If one Z77 board fails to recognize a card all the other Z77 boards do the same?
If it is I'm screwed and have lost a lot of money.
LSI 9265 and 9271 worked with Asus P8Z77-V Deluxe, P8Z77 WS and Maximus 5 Formula.Quote:

I have identical problem with P8Z77 WS. With 0703 work fine. After update to 3302 no go over 35 with 3770K. I tried all night to set over 35 but nothing in the end i downgrade bios to 0703. Ez flash does not allow downgrade bios so i used afuwin64 . I send mail to asus supportQuote:

I think I have this issue on ASUS Sabertooth Z77 Edit: with i5 3570k. Set turbo multi to 45 in BIOS but won't go above 42 multi in windows, as a result I only get up to 4.2GHz. Will be monitoring this thread hope there's a quick fix out soon.
Could you please open a thread on Rog forums too we need to make Asus see this.Quote:

So yeah, they know. Use pre "Win8" bioses for overclock testing, new bios for running those clocks. For me, this begins with VGA crash, but other users with NVidia vga have similar problems. Also, other brands other than ASUS have this problem, but it is only on Z77 boards, I can make same crash in X79 ASUS board, no problems with BIOS getting "stuck".
So, to further the conversation anyway, did you use Win8 on this Sabertooth board?
The more we can identify this problem's cause, the better chance it gets fixed permanently, but I don't think blaming ASUS for this problem is realistic. Just be sure to re-flash BIOS as soon as you notice problem, as if you do not, you could be like me and have a really broken board. :p
MVG and 3770K after a rebuild (took it all apart for a re-seat of waterblock and new tim) and now after cmos reset too I get various q codes after series of resets via the onboard button. These have been 00, 01, 11, F1, and 57.
Would one of you fine folk like to suggest a sequence of tests to establish the source of the issue I have? .... please.
I would tell you the bios version but I am not sure if I updated this one.
Check you did not over-torque the waterblock. If you removed the CPU from the socket, re-seat it also. Might be worth checking if you bent any socket pins.
Do that, then clear CMOS and use a single DIMM in the board and see if it will POST.
Thanks Raja. Re did everything, tried some different ram and after numerous tries, some partially successful, I am now at a bios screen sometimes.
The best I can describe is that either the memory buffer for input from mouse and keyboard is an issue or there are only just enough volts to run something because it has taken me hours to get everything set to auto and still after a few buttons are pushed or the mouse moved more than a couple of times the screen freezes and a moment or two later the rig shuts down.
The furthest I have been is "windows repair" which gave a full loading bar then froze.
Running out of the case on the bench with one stick and gpu and HDD at this time. I am already using a spare PSU.
I guess the board is safe so I could try an alternate cpu.... Again, thoughts anyone?
New bios for MVG and MVE coming soon, fixes issues with lastest 1604
Quote from Asus Rog forums.
Shamino - problem has been fixed
please wait a short while for the bioses to go thru the 'AHQL' process
I hate turning off my rigs...history shows me that the majority of issues I get are when I shut down for some reason
I am at the point where I have swapped cpu, ram, psu, gpu and although I could just about get in to bios a couple of times and see that clr cmos had taken effect, I try to start now and rig hangs at b7 for 10-15 seconds then re-starts.
I had not removed the cpu before but when doing so I found no bent pins. I have not tightened the block too much, it is still under spring pressure of EK HF later mount. red or black slots makes no difference. Samsung green, ripjawsZ and corsair xms tried , all to no avail. 2 different asus 7950's and sapphire and asus 5870's tried too.
Is it time to ask for rma on this MVG?
RMA the board. See if you can check the CPU on another board also. When you get the new motherboard, configure it on a non conductive surface and run it for a few days before you put it in a case.

i have issues to run my 3870x2 on maximus v gene no boot
after swapping bios chips from my dead mvf the card boot fine on mvg
please bios with updated compatibility(legacy ?)
Which UEFI version were you using on the Gene that does not allow this GPU to POST? Did you try any older Gene UEFI build?
i tried all bios one by one now im on latest version
i dont know if you can to patch mvg bios with mvf compatibility microcode
Depends where the issue lies and IF HQ still have such old GPUs. Can't promise anything on this one.
PS. might be worth listing GPU make and model together with VBIOS version.
but on maximus v formula card works why?
Can't answer that sorry - I don't know.
All i can do is forward your card model and VBIOS version, rest is up to HQ.
You can contact your local ASUS Support also if you wish.
thanks for the support raja
:)
So do you have the VBIOS version and full make and model of the GPU? Can't do much for you without those.
i have 16 3870x2(binning for hw boints)
3 powercolor
4asus
2 powercolor gddr4
6 sapphire
1 diamond
what exactly you need a gpu z from my previous score on bot is ok?
ps i have try to flash different vbios on cards but same issue

(score made with my ex dead formula :( )
Reported to HQ. No promises. Like I said, HQ need to have a card available AND be able to replicate the problem. If it gets patched it gets patched, if not, nothing more I can do.

thanks raja
ps (just ordered a new maximus formula)
So has the 'stuck overclocking' problem been fixed yet?Quote:

It has been patched internally. Qual process can take time if they had other things to add in as well. Nothing I can do about that. I just know it's patched internally and will be released when the full builds are ready.
Let's just hope it will be done this year.
Of course it will :-)
P8z77-v pro/thunderbolt....
I have 16gb Samsung memory installed. Everything ran as expected for several months. Recently, only 8mb was detected. Switching the modules to different slots made no difference. Either pair worked, but when all are populated, only half is found. Ran memory test, etc. nothing turned up. (also removed oc).
Fatal mistake! Decided to check the cpu socket for bent pins. Was too lazy to take out the Mobo and when
the cpu lever was opened, the cpu slid across the contacts and bent many pins. Dumb ass!
Got new mobo (same). The new board only detects 8gb! It also has a timing problem. The timing is set
to spd numbers and remains there no matter what is changed. Vdimm also is fixed at 1.337v and does not
change. Dumping cmos fixed the settings for one boot and then it reverts to spd.
Moving the memory modules as before is the same either pair works in black or blue slots as before.
Bios 1805 is now installed and the prior version was also tried. CPU is i7-3770k, windows 8 pro.
Any hope?
It may be a bad memory controller on your CPU. It went bad. I'd bet if you try a different CPU, your full 16GB will be detected. Buy a cheapy Celeron G530 just for this purpose.Quote:

The motherboard memory tool detects the full 16gb as does the CPUZ utility.
My research shows that the usual defect is the cpu socket pins. This time I was real careful with the install and
dropped the cpu straight down, etc.
Success! Everything running properly. All memory detected and timing is adjustable.
Created the problem myself. When I installed the new board, I switched bios chips to
be sure my raid setup stayed put. However, it appears that the original failure was the
bios chip in the first motherboard, and I just transferred it to the new one.
Live and learn!:)
It has to be the CPU. Sorry for the bad news...two different boards and same result it's an indication of a bad memory controller. Just get a G530 to test it out.Quote:

I have a p8z77-v Pro. I'm running Bios 1805. I have a GTX 570 SLI set up, but I can't get SLI to work. Windows 7 won't see the 2nd card.
In the bios under advanced \ system agent configuration \ NB PCIe Configuration I have the following options:
PCIEX16_1 (set to Gen 2, shows 8x due to 2 cards being installed)
PCIEX16_2 (set to Gen 2, this is the problem slot)
Slot 2 (white) will either say "not present,"or it will x0. Windows doesn't see the card.
I have tested both cards in slot 1 & they both work. They worked correctly in SLI on a Maximus IV Extreme (p67). I've cleared the CMOS, re-flashed 1805. I haven't tried flashing bios 1908 yet.
I didn't see any bent pins in the CPU socket.
Could it just be the bios or could it be the board? Any ideas? I'm stumped.
Try 1908. If it's not that it might be some weird ME fw corruption.
I'll try it.Quote:

Any chance on a BIOS for Maximus V series that will allow booting double-sided Hynix MFR-based sticks at Cas 12?
