BCLK 235 / PCIe 130 with GIGABYTE MB

**VictorWang** · 08-08-2009, 06:57 AM

i've tried 231bclk/121pcie boot on P55 with 750es

**metro.cl** · 08-08-2009, 01:13 PM

how are you guys running high pci-e freq? i tryed 106mhz and it wouldn't boot, i'm also using bios f9d and it has a huge hdd bug, i get 1MB/s transfer speed from my hdd to my pendrive and it takes like 2 minutes to boot.

They hard mod the mobo

**Lsdmeasap** · 08-10-2009, 02:13 AM

Some Dice results, think I maxed my board out as I can only get to 239 with 3 CPU's and any CPU Multi. Either way, Gigabyte's rock!!! Can't wait for the board revisions.

Lsdmeasap - maybe I've missed it, but has there been actual confirmation of a board revision on the current range of GB boards, or are you talking about the EX58A boards that are due out sometime? Very curious to know if a minor HW revision to the current line may remove the need for a hardmod. I hear the UD3R already has this change in a current revision?

Sorry, friends, been busy i will host all latest x58 BIOS including improve some memory performance and B2B Cas delay.

here is a simple 2:10 226BCLK on UD3R testing.

**MaJ0r** · 08-10-2009, 11:05 AM

max bclk

Vista better what XP for high bclk. I dont understand it. 3D much worse.

Yes, the X58 boards will receive a refresh when the P55 boards are released. They plan to release them all at once so that the new features like "Smart 6" all get released at once.

Hard Mod will not be needed on the revised boards, and yes the UD3R rev 1.6 already has the modification made.

**MaJ0r** · 08-11-2009, 03:38 AM

hicookie bios F8i ex58etreme better what F8x? Or F8i official Bios and he is not intended for hich bclk? Thank you )

**hicookie** · 08-11-2009, 03:52 AM

Dear all, i will host new BIOS tomorrow
cuz since intel didn't want to fix their microcode
those new betas i host are with new microcode but lock
D0 CPU ratios, i i will make new betas with old microcode

already told them on Apirl....seems like intel don't want
to fix that.

D0 CPU's only have 8 and 10 Memory multipliers if you use the BIOS's with the broken microcode in them, thus also making the uncore ratio's available incorrect. I believe this also may apply to the CPU Multi as well like Hicookie said, I forgot as I have not flashed with a broken one for a while.

Main thing is you want to wait, unless you have C0 CPU, even then you should wait as well

**ME4ME** · 08-11-2009, 04:31 AM

only the 6x and 8x memory multipliers are available with the new bioses.

its not possible to run 10x... thats were the problem is when you want to overclock..

im back to F9X

still the best bios for UD4P

Thanks for the info. Any idea on release timeframe? I heard they had been delayed somewhat due to the new SATA 6Gbps controllers, but didn't know how long that was going to take. I'm picking up a current UD5 in the next few days, but if the revised boards are inbound soon-ish, I may hold off a bit.

**hicookie** · 08-11-2009, 08:03 PM

updating new BIOS with old microcode, yup if intel guys looking this thread
please fix ur microcode, all manufactures used same new microcode

*new bios with old microcode to unlock D0 CPU ratios & dividers
*also you can download from official website, we host release bios already.

Just flashed F9 bios (UD4P), got it from GB directly haven't tested it, do they have big changes? what are the improvements?

I do believe they will be here VERY Soon, set to be released with P55 of course. I think that would be the end of this month/beginning of next month. At least that is what I have seen tossed around

HiCookie is the one to tell us about that, but maybe he is not allowed to say?

Well crap.

I've got a UD5 showing up today via UPS. I may have to refuse delivery and wait it out for the refresh. I normally do not fall prey to waiting for the "latest and greatest" (b/c then you never buy anything), but in this case I may have to make an exception as the EX58A baords look like a very solid upgrade.

**Harshal** · 08-12-2009, 06:27 AM

As soon as I find a decent place to bench I am gonna give you some good numbers HiCookie.. both Intel and AMD ones
