Gigabyte EX58-UD5/Extreme Discussion Thread

I am on F4m, but using mem channel timings and round trip latency values from F4j, as my mem likes them better.

Only other differences on F4m, pink and red volt warnings, F4m bios loads smooth and fast instead of slow and choppy like f4j and earlier bioses, and F4m allows direct enter on CAS instead of scrolling. But I am prime stable at 4.2, 21x200 1.376vcore load in either F4j or F4m.

Using F4 final or F5a, I can not even boot past 178 bclk. I spent hours, tried manually locking every visible setting to F4j/F4m values, tried pink and then redlining every voltage including channels, altering clock/pcie drive, if it could be changed in bios, I tried it. Bclk above 178 on F4 or F5a is no go on mine. Computer stays on, does not give bios screen, does not load windows, blank monitor, mouse/keyboard no green light, only way out is clear cmos....which I used upwards of 100x.
