As usual, Tccd for 414-1 and 3
UTT type for 441-2 or 3
414-1
414-2
414-3
******************************
Add support for AMD Venice , San Diego Core cpu Cool n quiet
prevent Jp 17 jumper problem cause vdimm still stay at over 3.3v when jp17 set back to 1-2.
DFI recommand cumstomer need to set to 3.3v AND clear CMOS before set the jp17 back to 1-2 default position.
Thanks you, Onepagebook :)
thanks OPB :)
I hope these new ones will help me overclock my TCCD further..
What does that mean adds support for venice? I have been using a venice with the stock bios and all the other bios's. Weird.But thanks for the info OPB
Edit: I searched but could not find this info. What would be the best bios for 3700eb? Anyone know?
Sorry to go off topic but, does this mean that Venice won't work with the nforce 3 ultra chipset? As in an MSi Neo 2?
Read the very first post in this thread and see if you notice anything. ;)Quote:

lol
i really love those DFI dewds their english....
cumstomers :D
thx 4 the new bios, but as usual ill wait for the next final!
OPB or anyone else that's tried....
What is the best of these bioses for the VX4000/BH5 RAM??
I'm hoping to get my VX to be stable in my DFI rig at 2-3-3-8@3.3v...
Been having one h3ll of a time with these 2 sticks of mine...
Enough Off Topic...
So, is the 414-2 & 414-3 the best for UTT & would that also mean that that VX & BH5 would also be classed as UTT??
Right now I have my vDimm set at 3.2v cos if I have it set any higher, my rig just shuts off :mad:
Cheers,
Minnyboy
Downloading atm...

What should my DRAM Drive Strength be for these chips ?
System Spec:
1 x FX55 WEEK 45
2 x GSKILL PC3200/4400 LC
1 x DFI NF4 SLI-DR
Also are there any performance increases apart from adding Venice support
Many Thanks,

Thanks Wingz :banana:
Which one should I use with VX?
Hasn't VX UTT chips? so... ;)
Should I use 414-3 with my BH-5's ?
what the diffrent betwen 414-1 and 3 for TCCD ?Quote:

Each user has a different system so it should be the best way everybody test it on his own - BOIS flash last only a few minutes.
I did so with the 3 versions of the 331 BIOS and found out that 331-1 is best for my BH-5.
Otherwise we have here hundereds of post what BIOS is to use in a few days......

it would be helpful though, to have a sticky with recommended timings, drive strength, etc. for dfi nf4 boards in combination with different kinds of memQuote:

There are already a bunch of DFI NF4 threads maybe all the info should be combined in one sticky. :2cents: :)
UTT type for 441-2 or 3
What's the difference?
good stuff opb:) will test. god only knows i havent been able to pull anything stable up until this point, hehe.
Thank OPB :toast:
I appreciate being able to test these, but a little better description of these various beta bioses would be very helpful. We should be entitled to know what it is we are testing here.
which one must i use for bh-5?
I also have same question :)
been using 414-3 since last night, didn't lose or gain anything but it appears to be just as stable as 313-3, so far so good.
Good to know Ben, Ill give 414-1 a try. :up:
Ok so much for that i just flashed to 414-1 with winflash like always, I got the message flash was Successful do you want to reboot now stupid? And Nada.
OH WELL lifes a b!tch. Ill be down for a few days. :(
ouch.
You can hotflash it if you cant get into windows with another motherboard like your NEO2.
This is the exact reason why I made the bootable cdrom. Too many users going down like this. So sorry for your loss:(Quote:

1,3,5,7 are "better" for single side configuration ram. 2,4,6,8 are good for double side conifg. ram.
***********************
personally, when I use 8 on TCCD is big big better than use 7. ;)
**weird, 414-2 for me is the best fit for all ram. :confused:
maybe depends on cpu's ondie memory controller ?Quote:

tnx..leeched em all but going to use the 414-1 for my vitesta :D
been using 414-2 since yesterday... gain +6mhz oc @ 166 divider (than 310p), it`s stable so far...
1 and 3 fail on my 300Mhz here as I could previously do it w 2.7v
now it seems had to get it pass 3.1v for it ... strange here..
its either memtest #5 or #8 problems on 300Mhz, drive strength 5 would give #5 a go but fail #8....drive strength 7 would pass #8 but fail #5.... :wierd:
So drive strength 5 and need pump vdimm up to see the errors got lesser and eventually reach 3.1v + 0.03 w 1 error...still working on this yet..
270Mhz was fine as before :D:
maybe would try 2 tonite to see how it goes...

Thanks for the new BIOSs OPB :D
It apparently depends... for me 7 on 2x512MB TCCD has been much better than 8 :shrug: Different TCCD tho :p:Quote:

I think EB is closer to UTT than it is to TCCD so I would use that as a starting point.

[thnkz] mode [/thnkz] 2 Kakaroto for the help :woot: :toast:
i tried all 3 bioses and 414-3 was the best :)
265 with 3.4v.
http://www.hvweb.co.uk/wingz/265.JPG
Thanks OPB, I think I just gained stability (maybe not really :D ) with my 4800LA and CBBID though the benches are the same as before.
Interesting how little one gains in SuperPi increasing clock while relaxing timings. This TCCD cannot hold a candle to BH-5 despite all the Sandra 7500+ benches.
thanks a lot master onepagebook :toast:
can u post the settings that you are using pls?:)Quote:

TCCD likes a weak drive, BH5, UTT, hynix, Mosel, promos, micron, etc all like a normal drive strength.
So you have a board tuned for TCCD, so you have to tweak it to get other IC's to work better.
Usually 260HTT i set TRRD to 2 and TRWT to 2.Quote:

Centon TCCD 507 & BP808, I have tried the 414-3 ... I can't boot at 300 MHz 2.5-4-3-5 ... without prob with 218 @ 305 MHz :(
woops forgot to reply to ya. cdrom image has been updated. all bios revisions available for public consumption is on there. still need to clean up the batch, etc (to make it more scalable as the bios revisions grow, hehe). when i get some free time i will though..Quote:

sli broadcast enable = freezing hard locks for me
The bug with .5 multiple seems to gone (sure)... but .0 multiple seems to have some issue (not sure).
The 414-3 BIOS seems to work best for me. I tried the 414-2 BIOS and got tons of Memtest errors and I couldn't OC at all. Went back to the 414-3 and everything was peachy again. Strange. I wonder if my G. Skill GH Winbond UTT modules are going to like the 414-3 as well.
Using 413-2 with all my old settings from 3-10 (i know i know but im lazy) seems to work just fine with my bh5 memory. Havent tried the other 2 flavors.
Comebacks on that sli options would be interesting
which one would be best if i was to run just any old memory? like with nanya sticks IC or something?
cuz with the one exclusively with UTT, it won't even let my boot into windows with TCCD.
i want to test my G.skills with the latest BIOS and see how high i can get them. Does anyone have a shot of the BIOS settings used to hit around 300-315 on G.skill's? That would be appriciated. Thanks.
(Psst-sig)
i Have a 1 Problem
i have bios 14/03/2005
When i put the jp17 1-2 to 3-2 my system not boot PSU CoolerMaster 450W
I hAVE this problem with 5V http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...highlight=jp17
try this method:
set VID to Auto -> save -> wait for POST -> shutdown -> switch off -> unplug -> wait for yellow lights to turn off -> switch to +5 -> plug in -> switch on -> power up -> enter bios -> set VID to any value -> save -> re-enter bios -> now you will see past 3.2v selectable.
I know I've asked this before but now that eveyone has had time to play with these bios, what's the best 414 bios for TCCD 440 chips, 1 or 3?
Well i dont know if its cause of this bios, but it sure appeared with it.
Now everything i boot the pc in the morning, i get a blue screen at the end of loading windows (when i click on my user)
I have to go in the bios, NOT CHANGE A THING, save it, and reboot, and its fine.
Im using 3.1V with the 4v jumper disabled.
wanted to try 414-3...load the default optimal setting then flashed it with the floppy and get checksum error, have a second motherboard laying around and swapped the motherboard, switched to a different floppy disk, download another copy of 414-3 and flashed this bios on the 2nd motherboard....baaaammm, same sh*t again!! so I got two dead mobo now...F*CK! what's in this 414-3 bios yo?? :mad:
My brother is going to stop by my house in couple minutes and will bring his rig along with, will try to hotflash and see if I can get them up again.....this 414-3 is killer, it must not like my rig! uuurrgghhhh!!
I had the same problem with 414-1. Back up now with 310. :D Now i have two backup chips i need to hot flash.
which of them bios`s would i need for my dfi nf4 ultra d to use with my 3800 venice and 2 x 1gb sticks of ballistix?
Vlad...where did you get your backup chips from? looks like I'm going to get either the Bios Savior, or buy atleast 3 chips just incase this sort of crap happen again, luckily we were able to hotflashed them and get them up now, I'm going to load into windows and use winflash to burn the damn 414-3 again, if it sucker punch me again....oh well, 3rd time a charm right? :DQuote:

Mouser has them for 3.50 each ;)Quote:

Do you gentlemen know the part number for the blank chips at mouser.com? I have been really pushing my luck with all the flashing I've been doing :D
Thank you
I tried Bios 414-2. My comp didn't boot up (Blank screen) It seemed my comp could not detect my graphic card. So, I changed the graphic card to another card. Fortunately, it boot up but failed to load into window. So I reflash the bios back to 310 (official). So I can do DDR500 at 3.5v @2-2-2-2. May be will try 414-1 or 414-3. (It was a scary experience. I thought my mobo is 'gone').

The 414-3 seems to work better for my. More stability and better results.

Until soon
What are you guys doing wrong to corrupt your bioses while flashing?
Give more details what happened
Like simple stuff as: did you update the bios while overclocked :D:D:D:D
Well, I'll stay with the official 310
i NEVER would flash a bios from withing windows, i always use DOS..never had any probs with a flashQuote:

Same here, I never had a problem with winflash until now. :shrug:
Can anyone help me out here? Which is the best BIOS to be used with Hynix D5 chips? I have Kingston HyperX PC4000. Thanks guys.
