Some nice overclocking results, good volts and temps for air cooling when you run 3d mark.

**vanovich** · 08-17-2009, 10:52 AM

Any one here kind enough to tell me what ohm the resistor next to the one that has to be removed is? that would be resistor nr 6. thanks in advance.

**ditchmagnet** · 08-17-2009, 04:31 PM

I'm in the middle of modding it right now...I hope I don't kill it.

Does anyone have links to this hardmod?? Or is it the same for all X58 boards???

**Hondacity** · 08-19-2009, 08:29 PM

hardmod for x58 xtreme pls

**ditchmagnet** · 08-20-2009, 07:26 PM

Finally got it! I really was worried I killed for a bit.
So far I have only got to 225 without it locking up, but I am just happy to be booting up again at this point.
Using F8 final bios

**MaJ0r** · 08-21-2009, 12:05 AM

ditchmagnet only F8 BIOS without hardmod?

**ditchmagnet** · 08-21-2009, 04:58 AM

F8 final WITH hardmod (my crappy version of it anyways)

**Lsdmeasap** · 08-21-2009, 05:04 AM

Keep pushing, glad to see you finally got it buddy!!

Higher IOH then you are used to may be needed for high Blck, at least that's what I find. I have no clue how others get high Blck's with stock or little IOH, I seem to always need it.

You can use any BIOS you like, you just will have to use SetFSB to change the PCIE inside windows if you do not use the Fxx versions.

**ditchmagnet** · 08-21-2009, 06:15 AM

I might switch to F7 till I get a fan controller as F8 just runs my fans at full speed

**Lsdmeasap** · 08-21-2009, 06:27 AM

Try the latest Beta instead I think that is fixed now.

I find PCIE 106-110 to be best myself

**screwtech02** · 08-21-2009, 06:01 PM

Man, is this "mod" a "state secret" or what??? Those that have done it, where did you get the pics/info from, besides Hicoockie?? Or is he the ONLY source for this info??

**Leeghoofd** · 08-21-2009, 06:04 PM

you answered ya own question there...

**clockero** · 08-22-2009, 01:05 AM

can i have the hardmod instructions/pics....PM.....pls

To those that still need the mod, it IS in the thread, you just need to search 4 it very hard.

**screwtech02** · 08-22-2009, 09:29 AM

Ok, wtf is a F8x file extension?? Looks like this is only the mod bios??? I seem to find no documentation/pics of hardmod process???

**Lsdmeasap** · 08-22-2009, 09:42 AM

Look harder and more outside the box, the documentation IS posted here in this thread. It's just not obvious as a link or anything, but think along those lines

Qflash or SPIFlash will read any extension, you can name it .F132 if you like. The x just notes that it is a special BIOS for something particular is all.

And just so you know, you need the F9x for UD4P not the F8x
