MA790X / MA790XT-UD4P 790X bugs fixes etc etc.....

[Anarki]

Thanks a lot, got it up and running.

My board is the XT version and uses DDR3 RAM, can I use the F5A BIOS from the X version which uses DDR2 RAM?

I doubt I can

NO ,,

i noticed on One of the ASUS sites there is a F5 bios now

You will have to google F5 Bios for UD4PXT... i think it was ASUS ASIA site that has it.


Your ( Avitar) works amazingly better than my Coffee

Searched on google it seems gigabyte haven't yet released the F5 bios for the 790XT

Guess that means I'll have to see what I can get 2 cores up to for now.

try F4G not F4 http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Support/M...ProductID=3010


Im Bad the F5 is for the Intel version!

After you flash load defaults then set up all your devices or AHCI if you use that. Then Turn on Hybrid Mode and Auto ACC.

Im pretty shure F4g has the Hybrid option. Its also newer updated CPU code.

DP:

This MA790XT-UD4P board is pretty buggy, I cant adjust the NB VID because it keeps reverting back to 1.1V. Any value I set in the BIOS gets ignored upon post, when I get into windows and use AOD, I set the NB VID slider tab to anything and as I soon as I hit apply, it reverts back to 1.1V.

The memory divider seems borked as I'm trying to get a 266MHz FSB and a 1:3 FSB/RAM divider but that doesn't work. It keeps going 3:10.

AOD can't detect the CPU voltage and NB voltage correctly - I have them set as 1.40V and 1.30V respectivly via the BIOS and AOD sees them at their stock volts.

I cannot get Hybrid mode to work as the motherboard has a fit and hard locks everytime. I have tried the F4 bios and the F4G bios and both give the same results.

Not having fun at the moment

When you set the NBvid it will always read 1.1 in AOD and Everest.


If you set +.200 on NBvid it is really 1.3vid even though AOD dosnt register it.


When you enable Hybrid mode try +2 or +4 All cores with default volts CPU auto and NB auto and DDR# to waht its Volts are suppose to be at the correct divider , what happens?

[Anarki]

With all settings default/auto I turn on hybrid mode, all cores (I've tried +0, +2, +4, -2) I quit and save out the BIOS, my PC reboots and the fans spin up for about 3 seconds then switches off.

I then can't boot up unless I unplug the PSU and reset the CMOS.
