Im using 8GB Patriot 1600mhz, 2x4gb sticks. I think i fixed that issue by upping the qpi and pch voltages from 1.05 to 1.1v, try that, with 8gb or more i think the qpi/vtt needs to be upped. Ive also gotten a BSOD that caused a bios checksum error and caused the system to load the backup rom from the dual bios, so i had to reflash the bios to F6 again.
Im not sure if there is anyway to actually flash the second bios, but if you have high speed memory the qpi might still need to be adjusted. Try anywhere from 1.1 to 1.2, see if this helps.Quote:

I've flashed 3 or 4 times now. You need to *copy* the BIOS just flashed to the backup BOIS after flashing and loading defaults by holding ALT+F12 during POST. Found that info here via "C-N". Thanks!Quote:

New BIOS is out.
Guys for one kit make sure you install it in slots 2 and 4 ok
also bump the QPI/VTT from stock volts up to 1.24 range (try gradually) as some ram/CPU tends to need more. (my CPU has a vtt wall of about 1.26 i dont know what others are like)
i suggest not to use XMP profile as those profiles would have originally been made for P55 platform!!! Manually set it!
Thanks !!!Quote:

QPI bump ? I read that was only for BCLK increases (but maybe that's old 1366 thinking). My BCLK shows up in CPU-Z as 99.8. going to try it now, thanks again.
Stasio, are you talking about F7B? If there is a newer one please let me know.Quote:

Interesting, my UD3 is happy with 1.05Vtt for 2280 9-11-9-27-1T 1.7Vdimm, rock stable. :shrug:Quote:

Realtek LAN blows. What was I thinking ?!?!?!?!
Intel LAN card ordered. Grumble grumble.
F7d works great for me.
let me lower my volts & brought the temps down more. This is @ 1.42v set in bios.

Thanks, wow, very nice temps. I'll give it another shot. Probably :banana::banana::banana::banana:pit error. ;-)
Nope, same thing. AHCI mode cause POST to hang after "Detecting drives"Quote:

I hit the clear bios button and couple times then it finally brought up the bios recovery and reverted me back to F2 thank god.
Glad (well not glad, but) to hear I wasn't the only one. :-)Quote:

Anyone with this board and EK supreme hf? Got supreme hf full nickel, which is pretty big and those caps are really near cpu socket.
Some comments would be nice
Someone at HWLuxx asked the same question (having a HK 3.0) and he posted a pic of the board with block installed. (click the link in his post)Quote:

I don't know if there might be a risk to a shortcut or so.
I'm asking the same question because I ordered the UD4 too, and also have the HK 3.0.
Here's a post from the same guy. He said he turned his block 90° and it seems to be better (don't know if I read it correctly though).
http://www.hardwareluxx.de/community...8-post115.html
Ive also found F2 to be the most stable and requires the least amount of voltage for a decent OC. I can successfully OC to 4.6 @ 1.3v....For every day use I have it down to 4.3 @ 1.2v. When I use F6 or F7B - this OC fails miserably :(
Im going to stick with F2 for now as I like 4.3 @ 1.2v...Idle temps are between 26c-30c..Load is @ 50c...
My MAIN issue with this board is the USB3.0. Any time I connect a 1TB+ drive it detects it, then drops it, detects and it drops it...While doing this, it sees a drive but suggests I need to format it....Very annoying.
For it to remain connected, I have to first connect it to USB 2.0 and then back over to USB 3.0..
Anyone else have this issue? I too am seriously considering returning this and getting the P8P67 Pro...
Those links are kaputt!! I cant read them brother :p:Quote:

I guess im safe? At that thread pics block seems still pretty close to caps. But does it matter is the space 1mm or 10mm?
I was hoping to see a BIOS that didn't set the BCLK at 99.8 and didn't have to reset 3 times everytime I made any adjustment.Quote:

I tried setting the turbo multipliers to 45 manually (my current overclock) but then it wouldn't wake from sleep at all, just enter an endless reboot cycle.
Tried F3 and F6x but both also lose the overclock. Managed to get the multiplier settings working on F6x (so it doesn't reboot endlessly) but still no post-sleep overclocking.
Any ideas?
I have this with UD7 turbo mp 45. Have to restart to get my turbo back.
My best results in low voltages are with hte f6x from hwbot or f7b. But I didn't oced with F2 though my board came with it. I'll give it a try.Quote:

For me, I've still troubles with ahci while booting.
ive got this board, and when im testing for stability with linx and the cpus running at full speed 100% load on all cores with the voltage set at 1.33 in bios, the voltage drops to 1.28 then 1.24?
Any ideas, thought it should stay around 1.32 1.33?
have you enabled the load line calibration?Quote:

Hi, i would like to ask you something.
I heard that with the ud7 if you disable c1e, speedstep, turbo... and all those features the clocks are ever at the same speed, i mean you change the main multi, does it happens also in ud4 and ud5??? Ever at 4.5, 4.6, ...?
Thanks in advance

can you upload and link the f2 bios pls... ?Quote:

This may be old news here, but I just discovered that upping the Vtt and Vccsa on my board by a notch each, helped me get Prime95 stable on clocks that were previously failing (even though they were passing LinX). Running 4.8 with 1.4V (1.38V load) now.
Please tell how many volt you encrease..
Has anyone had a chance to test the SATA 3 speeds yet? just asking as I saw somewhere that some motherboards SATA 3 ports can be a waste of space.
I ended up moving the Vtt to 1.10 volts, and the Vccsa to 0.945Quote:

Best Bclk I could do at -45C, 1085 set in the BIOS.
Updating BIOS now to check for max multi. I'm glad I tried cooling these down and putting aside what many people have observed.
I could barely do 102 Bclk at normal temps. Previous max multi was 51, lets see what colder temps can do!
UD4 is Rocking!
:up: my chip doesnt do more than 104.5 on air lol
Coolaler already clock at 110.74 bclk and 5.5GHz.

http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/2149/47ghibt.jpg
anyone explain ?
Sandybridge maximum safe voltages
Core Voltage - Not recommended too exceed 1.38v, doing so could kill the CPU, we therefor recommend a range of 1.325-1.350v if overclocking.
Memory Voltage - Intel recommend 1.50v plus/minus 5% which means upto 1.58v is the safe recommended limit. In our testing we have found 1.65v has caused no issues.
BCLK Base Clock - This is strictly a NO, anyone using base clock overclocking could/will cause damange to CPU/Mainboard. (Set manually to 100)
PLL Voltage - Do not exceed 1.9v!!

I do think phase would be nice to use for benching, I didn't have much time to play but I think it would help keep high clocks stable easier than air/water.
I do have to say, WOW, the older BIOS is much more stable when it comes to failed overclocks and rebooting at high clocks. I used F3 for a long time and it was like X58/P55 with failed clocks, but as soon as I moved to the newer BIOSes to try with CPU PLL option everything hit the fan when it comes to failed settings and rebooting, ect. That made it super bad for me, I was using a screwdriver to start the board and clear CMOS :D I need to order a set of switches :up:
Hopefully they can fix these issues, otherwise I may just go back to the older BIOSes on UD4 and UD7 for my reviews. I think that may be ok for me anyway because I can boot x51 multi without CPU PLL option, which makes me surprised that even with the option enabled that is all this CPU can do.
I'm gonna try to find a retail soon, if I can scrounge up the cash.
Wow, I can't beat that!Quote:

With AHCI enabled I freeze during the reboot process at "detecting IDE drives" on both F6 and F7B?

Guys,
I'm having serious problems with this board and I need some help.
I bought the board last week, along with a 2600k.
Since I installed it on wednesday, my board is acting weird (it's the least I can say).
The major problem is that it won't hold the VCore.
The board came with bios F3. After installing everything normally, I checked voltages in both bios and windows (using HWINFO, CPU-Z and ET6).
My cpu has these VID's at specific speeds :
3400Mhz : 1.225V
3500Mhz : 1.245V
3600Mhz : 1.275V
3700Mhz : 1.300V
3800Mhz : 1.325V
3900Mhz : 1.335V
4000Mhz : 1.340V
4100Mhz : 1.340V
4200Mhz : 1.340V
4300Mhz : 1.345V
4400Mhz : 1.355V
4500Mhz : 1.360V
4600Mhz : 1.360V
Now here's the problem.
After the first start, the bios reads the default VCore at 1.212V, which seems normal.
After booting into windows, VCore drops at various voltages, I've had 0.972V or 1.140V etc.... (this is to make a long story short).
Now, after a restart, the bios reads the same VCore as in windows, which seems kinda weird to me.
So, after, f.e., ET6 or CPU-Z read 0.972V, the bios, after a reboot, would give the same readings.
I went from bios F3 to F6, then F7b, F7f, then back to F3, now on F2, but the problem won't go away.
Here's an example with pics and screenshots (taken yesterday):
After reboot, VCore in bios reads correctly 1.224V :
http://www.abload.de/thumb/f2bios-3934yh7y.jpg
Other settings in bios :
http://www.abload.de/thumb/f2bios-3935ycab.jpg http://www.abload.de/thumb/f2bios-3936xi0f.jpg http://www.abload.de/thumb/f2bios-39374dv9.jpg http://www.abload.de/thumb/f2bios-3938ihjx.jpg
Then I booted into windows, and VCore drops to 0.972V (idle and load)
http://www.abload.de/thumb/3400_autovcore_loaddm1b.jpg http://www.abload.de/thumb/3400_autovcore_idlehmvg.jpg
As you can see, VCore doesn't change at all and stays at 0.972V.
After a reboot, you can see that the bios reads the same voltage as in Windows, 0.972V
http://www.abload.de/thumb/f2bios-39412m8l.jpg
Then, I set Vcore manually at 1.320V :
http://www.abload.de/thumb/f2bios-3942pzim.jpg
But as you can on the pic below, Vcore still stayed at 0.972V :
http://www.abload.de/thumb/f2bios-3943uyc8.jpg
I'm getting very frustrated with this board and I'm wondering what's causing this problem.
I reinstalled the CPU this afternoon, cleared CMOS and others, but the problem won't go away.
I'm considering returning the board and have it checked, unless the problem might be resolved very soon.
My first board upgrade in 2 years (coming from S775) and now this crap happens to me.
Anybody out here who might help me out?
well, must bad board i quessQuote:

I'm having a similar issue I think... My UD4 will not accept any change to vcore. I have come to the conclusion it's a bad board. so it's going back.
Hey big brother! You need to disable the last 5 settings on this bios screen. You have c1e & eist enabled. :up:Quote:

The board simply hasn't worked correctly since day 1.
Already called the store and informed them about the problem.
They'll have it checked and I'll probably get a new one (as this is only a couple of days old).
Well that sux balls! When you get a new one, let me know if you need any help. I got this board down pat now. She is screaming along @ 47 x 100 with 1.4v in bios, running WCG @ 1.392v. Temps are topping out @ 55c on my h2o system.Quote:

I noticed something weird earlier.
As I said before, the bios or windows wouldn't hold the VCore and after a reboot, the bios would report the same Vcore voltage as in windows.
Now, after I changed a setting and saved the settings, the system would sometimes shut down and reboot after a couple of seconds (mostly when changing C1E/EIST settings, or Isochronous "whateveritscalled")
After the reboot, the bios would give me the correct voltage (vcore set at Normal, DVID at AUTO or Normal).
Unfortunately, windows wouldn't and still report wrong voltages.
I had to repeat this, so the bios would read the correct voltage after another reboot.
Weird, but nothing I'm gonna worry much longer anymore.
The board is going back on wednesday.
If they give me a new board, I'm not sure if I would take another UD4. or try something else.
We'll see.
uninstall ET6 in windows and clear cmos and follow these steps and see if it still does it please

Thanks for this post dinos22.... I have had a go with your settings and my own issue remains.
I think my issue is different to others and I'm certain it must be a hardware fault. I have ordered another board which will be here tomorrow.
My issue is that any alteration to vcore will cause a bizarre result....
This is what I do, although I have tried many variations / bioses etc.
Clear CMOS for a nice fresh setup
Boot to Bios
Check settings (turbo and vcore) these show 1.188v vcore or 1.220 in the advanced voltage page (AUTO). Board reports Boot at 34 and Turbo at 35 - All as it should be.
Alter vcore (Tried all sorts but say 1.35v).
F10 and save - then re-boot
Comes back fine, but Vcore now reports as 0.98v and Board reports Boot at 34 and Turbo at 16???? WTF
If I then do F10 and save again... board will go into a power on and off cycle with no beeps or VGA
Just to add that if i leave Vcore on Auto and LLC to Enabled it works ok I can set turbo at 50 and boot into windows where vcore is reported as 1.38v
The chip will do 5.3+ on an asus P8P67 but needs 1.45 - 1.5v hence why i want to set the vcore manually.
if your chip able to hit 5.3ghz at 1.5v thats great. i can suggest some settings.Quote:

your vcore now dynamic. when cpu is idle cpuz or hwmonitor will report 0.900v and 16x. at %100 load you will see ~1.5v vcore.
use intel burn test for %100 load not prime.
Not as i really care or it's a break deal for me, but do you know if the UD7 ( or other models ) will get EFI bios in future ( or the dual bios don't allow it on gigabyte ?
This will cause the Turbo / vcore issue and just cycle power on boot.Quote:

As I say I think it's hardware
how many time cycle? did you try wait for 5 minute? sometimes thats happen and will be fixed when you stop change bios settings.
please try wait 5 minute at least if boot fail try drop multipler abit

This happens with everything at stock too... so lowering multi is worthless
