Gigabyte EX58-UD5/Extreme Discussion Thread

[technut36]

hey guys i am almost done setting up the rig, the threat has gone over a 75 pages. I would really appreciate it if some one could post bios settings which would help me push i920 to around 3.8ghz, i am sure a lot have already been posted, if anyone would be kind enough to link me to a post with good stable bios settings.

I really need the help because i am a complete noob to i7 ocing.

Thank you so much guys, appreciate it.

These first bios´s, F3 & F4 seem very unstable atm!? I have same issues as others have posted. With weird restarts, or for an example: If I cold boot my computer it starts for 2 seconds, then turns off for 2sec´s, and then posts and boots? Every time i start the computer it does this. I know it should happen if you put wrong settings and the board resets the settings and behaving this way, but the settings are fine and it never requests new settings or so on?? I really hope someone here can direct me to the best UD5 bios, if not I really hope G-B soon released a better, many better bios´s. As there have only been released two official bios files since release? I mean cmon!? What is going on? And Thx btw in advance for any help!

didja miss my reply to your earlier comment?

this is my config, it's with HT off for cooler temps since I only game on this machine, you might want to leave HT on if you are doing any video encoding or other math heavy stuff

HT off
base clock = 200 x cpu multi = 19 (3800)
qpi = 36x
mem = 8x (1600)
uncore = 3200

vcore = 1.300 in bios (w LLC on)
vdimm = 1.60
qpi = 1.340
cpu pll = 1.80

all other voltages left alone... I hard set my mem timings to 9-9-9-24 1t and disabled pretty much everything in the "advanced cpu settings" area.. these settings may or may not work with your board / cpu / mem but it should help you along the way... if you intend to leave HT on, you'll likely need a little more vcore than I am using.. like 1.325 or so.. maybe higher even.. you'll have to test it out. your mem might like a little more vdimm also.. I see lots of people using 1.66 vdimm, but I didn't need to run mine that high.. ymmv
good luck!
