BIOS 309.2:
NVMM 4.71 & NV RAID 4.78
please change Max async from 7ns to Auto
3.09-2
BIOS 310.2:
NVMM 4.85 & NV RAID 4.81
please change Max async from 7ns to Auto
3.10-2
I still have 2 more restricted(RAM) bios, but Oskar think those two I post here is more proper for any ram. If you guys have any problem about those two bios, you certainly don't wanna take risk for the two I don't post.:D
OPB
:toast:
please read the readme file very carefully after unzip.
Thanks once again OPB !! ;)
interesting isn't Max Async usually defaulted to 7ns all the time ?
Which one has the same NVMM like 2.17?
awsome, thnx OPB will try these out tomorrow
is one of these the same like the new official one ?

Thanks OPB
Onepagebook, any result with these new bioses? or are these only fixing some memory incompatibility issues?
Say OPB. Could you see if Oskar could put the temp readings during post in a future bios like on the Lanparty NF2 boards? I miss that feature.
Thanks for the headsup on the bios too. Awaiting results for anyone who feels brave.
I flashed the 3/10 bios but haven't noticed any changes. So far so good.
ya , the 310.2 should be just the same as newer official.
I think this bios is better than 218 though
nice. i will flash when i get home. im wondering, anyone have issues flashing while on +5? i would hate to have to jump back to +3 to flash... im on 2/18.
What is the 310P (performance bios) that is on this page then? What is the difference between this and 310-2?

I also want to know.Quote:

Well P = Performance = good, I suppose? ;)
A FC (file compare) shows that the 310P is different, then the 310 or 310-2, both of which are the same....
if you gonna flash p, I think that "p" will be very tigh timing for your ram
Well that sounds like it's worth a try at least. ;)
any better results?! :D
i've flashed the 3/10.2 but my problem with vitesta ddr600 still remain....The wan't go @ 290mhz with any timings & any voltage :mad: ... tomorrow i'll try 3\10 official :rolleyes:
I went from the 218 to 310p and have seen no improvement in scores or OC of either ram nor cpu.
From what I can tell the only changes are memory timings are defaulting to stable OC values instead of AUTO.
do the official bioses have memtest built in? or do any of them? thx.

memtest in bios rulez ;)
are these beta bioses based on the new final bios btw?
Little problem found in bios 310.2.
I got a SATA HD connected in SATA1 and the BIOS recognizes it in SATA3.
In the boot screen it's recognized correctly as connected in SATA1.
Strange...
Btw, anyone has problems with a DFI Ultra-D and Plextor 716A?!
hey opb is there going to be a vid card overclocking tool like msi has in any future dfi bios because that really is the ticket to ocin the gpu way more stable thanx:)
I had that sort of reverse in bios 217-18 also. Just switch cables around.Quote:

Good question, wouldn't mind knowing the answer myself.Quote:

im now flashed to 3.10 p's and running good here saw em up on the Street
omg opb ty for these gifts i threw in bios 310 and omg omg omg. i pulled my old bh-5 2x512 stix out (had cobwebs on em ) slapped em in to see what they would do, so i set multi down to 10 on the fx and started cranking em up with clockgen :) i peaked at 285 2.2.2.5 ( stable for spi 1m and sandra mem bench) every thing else in bios to auto except cpc, and ltd at x5 with just 3.2 volts thank you again for the awsome bios. never thought i would use that bh-5 again i may have to go rip off some benches:) the fx-55 loves this board as well with 1.61 vcore i can get it 3.2ghz with jacking the multi or raising the htt it stops at 3.2 with that volts and the vapo on it. anyone know what max safe volts 24/7 is for an early fx-55? thanx in advance:)
Anyone try these with VX yet? Any problems? Which one to get, the performance BIOS or the standard official BIOS?
:D My FX has its sweet spot at ~1,8 Vcore / 3.360 max. stable - running it all the time with 1,8 on single phase at ~ -55°C / no problems so far.Quote:

My 2x512 Corsair 3200XL v1.2 can get stable only if CPC is off ( 2T ) . Newest bios 3.10 can't help to run at 1T in dual channel . I tried every bioses and recommended setting but same result . Anyone got it stable at 1T in dual channel and how far does your overclocking go ? Please help and post your setting .
I did not really notice a difference, but the bios works well. :up:
I too have been wondering this. I think it's a fantastic idea and really suits DFI's reputation for overclockers. I would love to be able to overclock in the bios without having to have software installed in windows to do so. If MSI and Gigabyte have this shouldn't we?! If this can happen as well as show temps during post like on the NF2 board I honestly can't think of anything else this board is missing. ;)Quote:

I'm not having any problems with the bios that came with my Ultra-D. System is running solid with the settings in my sig. Is there a performance increase with the new bios? It seems my CPU hits a wall at 2.7 on the nose so I was wondering if the newer bios would help get a little bit past.
OT is there a thread like the official tips and tricks thread for the the Neo2 for the DFI nf4 boards?
you are the man opb :toast:
i burn it and it work jest fine :banana:
:D Flashed the BIOS yesterday into my wifes brain but she still refuses to clean up the house - should I try a Vcore MOD ???? :p:
:toast:
Try to insert the ram in a different 'slot', if nothing else you should get some type of response!Quote:

No Its deffinitely a Vdumm mod you need.Quote:

Maybe she's already maxed out?
i noticed the same vcore problem. what gives? is that undervolting? :confused:Quote:

What LDT and Chipset voltage are you guys getting the best OC results with? :)
ltd 1.4
chipset 1.7
[noob]
What's LTD or LDT (you each typed it different)?
[/noob]
They mean LDT, as in graphics card voltage.Quote:

LDT voltage should be the voltage for HTT.Quote:

Don't know what you have it set to now, but did you try upping VMem by 0.1 ??
Yeah, I tried Mem-Voltages from 2.6V to 2.9V. I think it's more a crappy mem comtroller than a memory issue.
I try to get a better chip cuz mine will only do 2.4GHz stable at 1.7V :(
Bummer on the 2.4 :( Heat issue perchance?
FYI... the newer TCCD likes 3.0V -> 3.1V ;)
:D Not always - got G.SKILL LA TCCD and the sweet spot is at 2,7 Vdimm.Quote:

very nice. im on bh-6 and i can only get like 257mhz stable with a divider with 2-2-2-7 1T 3.6v so maybe this bios will help me out a bit?Quote:

drop to cl1.5 and test your mileage also. if you cant get high FSB, go for ultra low latency:) surprisingly, cl1.5 is more stable then cl2 is for me. i cant use cl2 for some reason past a certain mark. it throws up errors here and there. thats the wierdness in the winnie i s'pose, hehe. 10x also doesnt work well for me, but thats another story, ha.Quote:

alright ill do that tommarow...the only timings i have tried is 2-2-2-7-1t, 2-2-2-7-2t, and 2-3-3-7-1t....they all seem to give me about the same results mhz wise...Quote:

give your ram about 3.5 or 3.6v. you will be much happier trust me!
get off tRAS 7 also. from what ive experienced with my ram and mem ctrlr, tRAS 5 works the best. past that is instability. tRCD of 3 doesnt work too well either for me.
New bios is working great for me.Quote:

No, but it allowed me to use the dividers without crapping the hard drive like the previous BIOS installed.Quote:

its look that the 0218 is much better for me.
proves that every mobo, cpu, chipset, vc, ect is the same, yet not identical. thus the wonderful world of overclocking :p:Quote:
