LOL you wont see problems, they said that no end user has yet been affected it was only an OEM or something, they said affected people are 5-15% after 3 years, that is a hit and miss i wont even be on this platform in 3 years, and i don't even user SATA3G, i have a C300. Either way this sucks but its kinda stupid, idk if I will waste time RMAing for a stupid problem.
well but that contradicts all cause how come they discover so soon if it will fail in 3 years ?Quote:

I have a feeling this is only going to wind up affecting people who have poorly ventilated cases that wind up around 65C+ average or higher (I know a few people like that), with dust bunnies dancing on their fan intakes, while the average person here will never see anything happen. We'll see if this winds up only affecting "hot boxes" or not.
Remember, many average joes have their cpu fans clogged and CPU temps often reaching into the 80's at *stock* load at normal program usage. I have a friend with an i7 920 that has such poor ventilation, that when I made him run prime95 for a test, it went past TJMax (Log) in a matter of minutes, according to realtemp. That's probably the focus of that. And he knows about his comp overheating, but I can't do anything for him since he's a minor and I have no access to his place until graduation. These boards and cpus and video cards have to be made to operate in and withstand constant temps of over 70C-80C, and if a PLL starts failing at 80C instead of 120C as originally intended, then you have a problem.
We won't know for awhile if a single user on these forums (who know how to maintain their systems) will be affected. Only thing that might take a hit is the resell value of the boards. And if systems wind up not dying enmasse, is anyone even going to remember this issue in three years?
The F00F bug was much, much worse than this; anyone could crash an entire network or domain with that...
But we'll find out.
read up on some of the articles written about this problem, they single out a lot of things, people are going nuts for no reason, the OEMs are going nuts for a good reason, and Intel dropped the ball i hope they compensate the OEMs or its going to get ugly. They usually do the right thing, i don't think this will be a huge issue at all.
The only real effect from this drama could be if the companies are still going to be issuing out BIOS updates or if they're going to do some secret revisions that will only work on replacement boards...(you know, replacing some hush-hush component...or coming out with a Super Bios after March...)
yea that would make us have to RMA, might not be that bad though.
LOL. Every P67 built to date is affected. It's a design flaw, not manufacturing, so it isnt a 5-15 % chance, it's a 100% chance, just depends on when, i'm sure some users might get it within 6 months while others get it in 3 years but it will happen.
Doesnt change the fact that every user who bought this board or any other p67 needs to RMA their board. which sucks.
is running 4 sticks on this board while overclocked a no go?
I have two sticks mushkin redline 6-8-6 running at 1600 with cpu at 4.9
tried to add two more, and wont do it.
Also I can not run 2 sticks of corsair 7-8-7 2000mhz at all. it will work if i set
auto timings, then it does 11-13-11 if i try 9-11-9 it wont go, even at 1800 or 1600.
I am keeping in mind what C-N said a few pages back about the IMC. but i see so
many people with 2600k's seem to be running 2000 on the ram even with high clocks.
I had some issues with 8GB 6-8-6 during testing for someone here, so I think it's just BIOS needs some tweaking still is all.Quote:

I was able to run the 8GB at 7-9-7 @ 1866 instead and it was much easier, so give that a shot instead - or try 7-10-7 at 2133 :D (untested, may need 8-10-8)
Thank you for this info!Quote:

Think you will likely be fine IMC wise all I was referring to was my 2500K runs good speed with far lower voltage than my 2600K so for me the IMC appears weaker. See here http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...&postcount=510Quote:

For the time being I have decided not to return my motherboard to the
retailer and have to wait till march/april for a replacement board.
My Wd 1002faex was already connected to sata3 and my remaining
Hd and DVD burner have now also been attached to the sata3 controller.
It looks like its back to my X58 setup, when I heard about this SATA bug I was scared.
bought a retail chip
max clocks 5.3Ghz so pretty average
IMC is decent on this retail :up:
i was close to running 1092Mhz as well but worried i will kill the ram with too much voltage,,,, more with KPs RAMdominance pot :D

At first i tohught your chip was crap because you had to use 1.59v to get 2 cores to 5.3Ghz, then i noticed that BCLK overclock.Quote:

I cant wait for my boxes to get here so i can see what kind of chip i get.
not for me man but i hear some guys do get a bit more with 1 or two cores, try HT on or off
Are you guys talking about memory or CPU overclocking headroom?Quote:

By the way did you see Gigabytes blog. They are saying you should contact your place of purchase in regards to a swap over/RMA. http://gigabytedaily.blogspot.com/20...-issues-q.html
Awesome rigs guys. I can see many hours of work in those systems and it paid off for you all. Here is a nice little happy snap of mine:

Now when my 24/7 clock is set I'm getting this...
Might be a simple Wndows thing... lasy to clean install after the upgrade P35 -> P67...
Tryng to avoid PLL Overvoltage, can't use final bioses. That's why I sattled x47 for 24/7. But I think I've tried that.
It could be a driver conflict. Why not image your drive and try a fresh install and see how that works out. If it doesn't you can just image your old configuration back.Quote:

People will do this and then post things like "this board sucks and isnt stable" or "Giga needs to come out with a better bios"
lol i cannot believe people actually think the chipset issue is causing them OC instability. LOL that has to be the funniest thing ever.
thx JB
This board is aok with me but man this chipset is boring sorta..
NO multi after 54 will boot,have not used too much bkl yet.
you think dice will help me out to get more multi? like do these chips respond to cold or what?

I messed up on the slots,well no maybe gigabyte did the 16x's should be spaced more apart,the second one is in a x8 slot i will fix it in a few :D
dimastech station's are sweet i always wanted a green one.. nice.
I'll do this. Actually my OS partition is auto imaging every night. It just takes so much time to customize the new install.Quote:

jack just ran his straight but if he ran a specific test order he would get a better score and would be owning us with that CPU clock
ive done some tests at 5.2GHz and you can see how much of a hit i take compared to cowie running at 5.44

I actually think the PCI-E spacing is pretty good, it enables you to use 3 cards and also enables you to use a pci port when running SLI. if they did enable the last slot to do 16x as well as 8x that woudl be nice but it woudl take a lot more than just adding pins, the PCI-E layout would need to be re-engineered, then what would they do with all the old boards?
F7 cures the S3 turbo problem.Quote:

agree with that, in reality it's the same of the Maximus or old Gigabyte x58, it's one reason i have choose this board, don't need to replace my Watercooling Parrallel bridge going from x58.Quote:

Guys i'm about to buy a new motherboard (after recall of course) and i don't know what to pick, if the UD7 or the MIVE. I wanted to go with the UD7 but i don't know why, playing games which is going to be the main utility for this build, is where ud7 does worse against competition. I saw lots of reviews and i don't know why in some games the frames the disparity is so big. In CPU performance is unbeatable, and not just in UD7 but other gigabyte models as well, because some may want to point the finger to the NF200 lag.
I don't want to sound like i'm defending the UD7, because i'm not, but what reviews are you talking about and do you have a link (I'm also interested in seeing the results).Quote:

I can understand the appeal of the Asus board as it's a fantastic looking board, but i couldn't imagine the performance increase to be that big that it would be worth your time, effort and money.
Maximus board also has a Nf200 along with the Ud7, if your running SLI i'd go either one of those :up:
This are the reviews i have been watching. Probably i think i over reacted in my words previously, because most of the time the difference is aproximatly less then 2%. I think this came over to my mind, because the UD7 usually isn't the winner in the reviews, and sometimes because i'm to nit picky with numbers (i wasn't calculating % of difference) which may helped what i thought previously.Quote:

http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/375...d/index10.html - This one i can't compare this
because its another platform, but the results are weird.
http://www.bjorn3d.com/read.php?cID=1982&pageID=10050 ~3,5% less in Crysis
After reading this and see everything what i've seen, i'm going to buy both of them, and the one that performs better will stay @ house.
PS: THere is another review which i haven't posted at kingpinCooling. Go the and check it out.
All of them favor MIVE
Keep up the good testing . . . Im in 3d lazy mode but will also get some testing up soon :up:Quote:

Back to the load stable x47 settings and couldn't stay in windows for more than 30 sec. No BSODs but freezing. Tried the RAM modules 1 by 1 and on Auto settings (1333), tried all kind of voltages, nothing helps, freezing in 30 sec. It's like x47 don't wanna play at all now.
Now running x45 LLC Standard, everything on Auto and so far so good. If it survives for the next 24 hours with no lockups/BSODs I'll go back to x47 and see what it needs to run it.

oh crap i did not run exact cpu speeds and i had more vga ram speed sry ...but still 3%-4% in a bench that pull 180k+ it still alot.
i have dug through some pages but can't find my answer so i am asking...you all have a lot of pages going on here :)
is there any way to change CPU multi in windows? i have tried with the various settings in the BIOS, but ET6 won't ever change the multi.
this is key for me as my chip doesn't like booting with high multi. on the M4E i just used ROG Connect. any help?
also, today, i can't disable HT. F7e is the BIOS.
so far i have a whole pile of mixed feelings with this board. coming from the M4E, and only concentrating on benching, it is taking much longer
to get anywhere with the UD7...but i am going to give it time.
It is a very rewarding motherboard once it is set up. I agree setting up can be interesting at times.:)Quote:
Originally Posted by 3oh6

I would also stick with F7e, it is the best in my experience. Mine lets me disable HT or use less cores but that gives me more instability than having it enabled.
i got HT disabled, i had to save and exit from the same screen as changing it.Quote:

the M4E is far more predictable, and no real games were involved to get it working with this same hardware. but if i can get the Hypers working on 2133 with this board, it will all pay off :up:
oh, and for ET6, have you installed the Intel Engine Management stuff? that will allow you to change BCLK and what not :up:
@Zac, yeah, on F7e and backup flashed.
haha yea I didnt know wtf was wrong with et6, I kept trying different versions and none worked but with intel engine management it works fine.
Would love to hear how you did that. I have zero success with any BCLK above 1006 :rofl:Quote:

well at stock you can always at least push blck to 103+, at high speeds i think the cold is the trick. Also you most likley need a GPU that can handle the high PCI-E, because as you raise blck you are raising pci-e as well.
I can push bclk to 105.5 at stock speed and to 100.7 at 5.32GHz. This is from boot up. ET6 doesn't give me more bclk in windows.

np i was just thinking you know. BTW nice OCes 1Day impressive!
With my GTX 570s I am able to push 107.5 at stock, i have another card that can handle 130blck so i am going to try that card.
Also at stock teh BLCk can hit 107.5, but OCed only like 103max at around 4.8ghz. my 5.2ghz chip wont do over 100.3 OCed at 5.2ghz.
I was having a look at my motherboard and i remembered i have 4x SATA 3 connectors. So i just moved all my HDD's to those 4 ports. From what i've read it's only the 4x Black SATA 2 ports which are affected by the bug.
************************
[4x Black] [2x White] [2x Black]
*Faulty*----*OK*-----*OK*
************************
I haven't noticed anything by having all my drives on the other ports, but just to be on the safe side i moved all my dives anyway and left my DVD on the old SATA 2 ports.
By the way, is there any drivers to install for the Marvell SATA 6Gbps ports? I had my SSD on the marvel ports but my write speeds were awefull. I changed back to the Intel 6Gbps port and the speeds went back to normal. I checked device manager and there is only a generic driver installed for the Marvell device and i can't see any drivers on Gigabytes website??
i have an old ET6 somewhere that changes multi in windows upwards but new ones dont, they will sort it out but later :rolleyes:
is the 21,33 ratio working jody?
YES thats correctQuote:

takes a bit of time to get used to it, ive only played with the P8P DLX and it was a weird experience also going that way lol
as i mentioned before OC fail recovery isnt great atm so flicking off a switch on PSU and clearing cmos after crash or C1 does the trick, i bench without a battery installed and use profiles. Now that i know how to push it i dont have to do any of that, just load her up and go
guess i am sol on sata ports :D

Dumbass, use the other ports :D

im just joking mate you know what you;re doing i can tell
dumbass :D
j/k :D
Are the sata 3 ports causing instant damage or is this something that will happen over time?
SATA3 ports are not the faulty ones, its the SATA2 ports that may go bad over time
Humm not sure whats happened, but nolonger stable @ 5.0
Alot of BSOD.
Need to do some testing...
tested all the hard drive controllers for superpi performance and found no difference whatsoever ... all same
in case anyone was wondering
Anyone running a ram kit with PSC chips in them? What vdimm you do you have for a 2133Mhz run? Can't get my G.Skill and Corsair DomGT (with PSC I think) to run at 2133Mhz. The olden DomGT with Hypers works just great. TIA.....
@max, thats quite weird because my PSC's love the ud7 where as my gtx2s dont like the ud7s.. I've seen high dimm voltage up to 1.75 according to HIWA, i'd run your rated specs on the dimms and adjust vtt/system agent till your stable..:up:
@Johnny: thanks for that. I'll keep fiddling with the voltages I guess. The ram is from G.Skills. Their cas6 triple channel kit from a months back.Quote:

I'm going to start working on F7 bios, so far so good.
Thanks again, for this, finally got a chance to test, and in no time was running 2133 7-10-7-24 4 gig. For this mem it was all about the trcd, and it helps to know the sticks you are using, and what they can do. Thank you!Quote:

Which Bios would you recommend to use F7 ?
If it's not ok to post the pics inline , I will remove them and just insert the links...
I like f7e personally. PLL overvoltage is removed in F7 and I need that. I guess it is back in F7f but I havent tried that one.
