Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD5 Discussion Thread

[C-N]

Sorry all been away for xmas just checking the posts on my phone.

Very good results C-N,will be nice to see AIDA64 1.50 reading on UD5.
Btw,
new beta BIOS is out for P67a series.

Thanks Stasio, I've played with all the BIOS's & didnt find anything that helped me. Im on F2 because I'm too lazy to re-flash after I brick the BIOS pushing the board & having it restore from the backup F2 BIOS.

Still running on the XP 32-Bit drive I found I'll put one up when I change it back.

No 2600K love? What I don't like about these is how they just suddenly stop at 4.8 - 4.9GHz or so usually for no reason, like Intel deliberately limited the OC a bit and 2600K they will probably limit to like 5.1 - 5.3GHz.

What I'm saying is the limit where the cpu multi becomes totally unstable no matter how much voltages you push into them.

2600k in Jan 2011, I'll be away for work for a couple weeks early jan then when I get back I'll grab one.

Hope it is the BIOS microcode... I've pumped 1.8v!!! into mine & best I could get into windows with was 4995MHz. It ran LinX stable though so I'm sure thats not the limit of the silicone.

With older x58 and p55 plattform there Are 3 main voltage to find stability

As the same for p67?

Very little to play with see my screen shots of Easy tune.

C-N,your chip is retail correct?what is the stock voltage on it?
just curious,seeing how these SB's seem to do 4.8GHz at such low voltages

Yes mate retail, I think 1.245 is what the Giga boots at but it increases with more clock speed.

P.S LOL about the centre heatsink.... no wonder it runs cool!!!!
