Core i7/X58 Overclocking Thread

[mascaras]

? bug in F4e GB extreme bios where 23 multiplier (turbo) always active, (would not think that even possible?) When priming 8 cores, multiplier should be 22 (turbo only active with one core) but multi stays 23 per cpuz with all 8 cores loaded only on F4e bios, works correctly F3 bios. Also, F3 prime stable 12 hrs, but same settings in F4e crash immediately almost as if really running at 4.186...(though could be memory channel subtimings were different as well in F4E). Anyone else run into this issue? to late this pm to try and figure it out...

Hi

hmmm it seems F3 bios is better ( im using F3)

, but the board has blown me away how graceful and perfect it Overclocks.. I haven't ever really owned a Gigabyte because they always seem to leave out some feautures that I love (esata) but I am absolutely astonished at how much quality this board brings to the table for the price... I suggest this board without reservation for anyone considering an X58 build I will post my settings in the morning...

yep , im also enjoying the UD5 , really great mobo , the only problem i found is that i need to use the White Ram Slots , if i use the Blue Slots the system wont boot ,(2 friends also had same problem) do you have same problem??



best regards
