Yea I don't think anyone who has it can put it up. I think we all have to wait for DFI to put it up. they better do it soon!Originally Posted by krullet

so where is this new bios?

I must be a bad boy of some sort. I have made inquiries from the tech support USA end about 816 and I have gotten jack squat so far. I am about to believe this was just some sort of hyped up rumor. Sure would have been nice if it had given a boost but I am losing any hope of such faster than the paddle on my boooty.
RGone...
Back and forth from board to board it seems.
The 816 bios was in Alpha testing. DFI still had a lot of quality control work to do before releasing it as a "beta" bios. I was hoping to see it tonight or maybe tomorrow morning from my contacts at DFI. I know they already have another spin entering testing.
Damn, I ordered this board last night along with the rest of the parts for a new build after seeing the initial results with the new bios, I really hope this new bios pops up and delivers!
I guess I can always return the mb unused and order maybe the p5b deluxe instead, must be patient must be patient grrrr...

Well I, like many, are taking Coolaler's word here. That's why we are all looking for this BIOS today. It sure didn't sound like it was still in Alpha from his statement.
Maybe it's a location/time thing. What time of day is it over in Taiwan?
I guess it depends what "will issue" means. He doesn't explicitly say it'll be out to the publictoday , does he?
Looks promising

Wow Cherry Hill, NJ! Thats not to far from me.
He was using the same BIOS that DUMO posted? I'm interested to here his experience with it.
Oskar Does It Again!
theres about 30 new options in this bios for the ram, almost all related do ram and data strength, but theres a few new things not related to data strength too. over all, you go from 4 ram tweaking options, to about 1 and a half pages of tweaking options.
however, actual OC ability of this board, has just took a drastic change for the better. Oskar Does It Again
before, anything over 900 mhz resulted in severe instability, and 1 ghz was a impossible pipe dream on this board. regaurdless of the ram used, or the Cas.
heres first try.... 1020 mhz.
dont look at the OC or cas or anything, cause thats not what I wanted to see.... I just wanted it to boot into windows at 1 ghz + and actually work.
it did
oh, Don't Rush Oskar for this Bios.
Its Not Perfect, and definatly has some Bugs to work out, before its ready for major use.
this board would not post for almost 2 hours, except when getting first boot after clearing a CMOS, first exit of BIOS and the board would never boot, and it took me a few hours to figure out why....
So Let Oskar Do His Thing, dont rush him.
when he releases the Bios, you guys will definatly be happy, cause it drastically changes how this Board OC, but realize, this bios isn't perfect yet.
Last thing, dont bug me for the Bios.
its not mine to give out, and I'll just be ignoring PM's and such about the bios. like I said, its not mine to give out. Wait for Oskar.

Kunaak:
Thanks for the preview on the BIOS. I have about 10 days before my supplier (someone who I bought a previous XE chip from on ebay) gets his
x6800's in, so i can wait and watch the feeding frenzy ensue (something I SHOULD have done before ordering that Foxconn board and then having to cancel the order).
If things keep looking up with this board, it may be the board that runs my
X6800.
That is some nice news Kunaak!
It would be nice to adjust al timings that are in Memset in the bios...

heres another test for the night.
this previously was impossible for 2 reasons.
1. with any other bios this board Hates my 2 gig ram kits, and would not OC beyond 3.2 ghz unless I used 1 gig of ram only.
2. the FSB was always attainable, even with other Bioses. but only with the 400 mhz setting. this is with the 533 mhz setting for 1:1.
so OC ability with 1:1 is drastically higher.
better compatability with 2 gigs of ram as well.
this is a All BIOS OC, no Clockgen.
Still tweaking and learning this new Bios.

Can you run a 3d mark on that 450 fsb too? or 32m?
looks like a nice bios for the board
anyone with this bios & a E6600 - E6800 could see if you can boot at 9x400mhz 1:1 & post a shot of it please ?
