So has anyone tried bios f6a? What are the improvements?

I'm still gunning for 4ghz stable. 3.9 is rock solid at 1.264v in windows under load.

Edit: trying out F6a.

I'm too curious not to try it! I've had some issues w/ F5 or maybe I'm asking too much out of the chip I have.

Interesting....

Stock settings on this bios are 15x133 = 2ghz.

I'll be changing that shortly!

Also, CPU clock Drive & PCI Express Clock Drive are now 700mV each. I believe it was 900mV on bios F5.

What's a good setting for this?

Edit 2:



finally have 4ghz stable at a lower vcore than 3.9ghz.

Now i'm trying to get my ram stable.... not sure if 1600 w/ lower timings is better than 1860+ @ 9-9-9 +.
