Just wondering what BIOS is everyone using. I'm on P07 and gotta say its not great as my default (P03) on mobo. I just cant reach OC's as high as i could before

P07 because I have a DO 920

Was on P07, now on P06 .....don't really see a difference but more testing would be needed on P07. Has anyone checked out the G21 & G22??

Nope, Im scared of beta BIOS and love board too much. Heh, maybe I'll try.. didnt tried P03 (mobo was with P04). My max OC was 4,2GHz .. can't reach higher, cause of cooling (90°C CPU..ouch).
Using P07, haven't tried any other.. plus its working. When I get some better cooling, I'll try more... and better rams, jeez those sux so much (G.Skill NQ - never again).
I´m still using P03 and it runs great (expect of the fact, that i can´t boot with an USB Drive connected with my OC Settings)

P06, because with P07 i can't make any overclock with my 920 C0/C1.
P06 cause thats what they told me to use, lol.
P06, just check my DO CPUID in sig and you will see it works great.

I am on P06 anything works fine.
still testing max Blck was 211 atm.
Now i am at 195 x21 , Vcore 1,32V, Ram 1,67V, Vtt 1,28 running Prime since 6 hours now.
These values are measured at the pads, i noticed that the BR dont reacts on +40, +60mV on Vtt.
I mean i still measur 1,11V than.
Beside from +0,02V on Rams the reading are absolute correct with Bios and CPU-Z 1.51

i'm using P07 at the moment, but wondering about going back to P06... was a bit "easier" to OC with...
i can boot my BR rev1.1 and i920 C0 @ 211 bclk on both bios.
i can reach 215 also (with aegis), and it seems to be a bit more "stable"... (crashes a little later in super pi )
but i keep a 200 bclk for the 24/7 which is rather good i guess.
have tried P04 : ok but not wonderful
and G13: same thing
in my opinion the best are P06 or 7 for C0 steppings
and P07 for D0s

Tested G22. Total bust for me with a 920 D0. Would not boot into Windows no matter what I tried. None of my OC's worked that were fine on P07. Post would hang at "update success" with post code 96 and just stay there. I was trying to see if G22 would get BR closer to the performance of my Classified using the same chip. I'll wait for a new bios before trying again.

Thanks for the info, I was tempted to try G22Tested G22. Total bust for me with a 920 D0. Would not boot into Windows no matter what I tried. None of my OC's worked that were fine on P07.

Im on P07 now and all is fine for 24/7, DO 21 x 200 Bclk 4.2 with 1.28vcore under load.
Max Bclk seems to be 222 for me on P07 so new Bios is definately needed to get closer to Classified speeds.

Nice clocks is it Prime stable ? What cooling are you using ?
Looks like you may have a bad bios flash Tripgood.
