This is a known problem and a New Bios is coming out to fix it as Raja stated one page before , they are just waiting for certification and approval to post the new Bios with the fix .

I running on 1501, can 1604 help me? or is necesary to wait for newer ?

I would wait for newer , but if you are just looking for the best bios strictly to overclock and don't have this problem use bios 0022 you can download here ( use it at your own risk ) http://hwbot.org/forum/showthread.php?t=42040 is the Bios I use strictly for overclocking. I hope that helps , if you don't want to take the risk wait it out , it wont be long until new Bios come out ,that's assuming you are using MVE , right ? please post your entire specifications set up so that we know and can be of better help.

1604 dont have same problem, now i running at 5Ghz, but thanks for qick help, i use only Asus Board (without last shame GB P67A UD7) but newer before see bug in bios, so ... i first think im simly noob and this new bios is to dificult for me (first day owner)

Asus Maximus V Extreme
2600K
4x4GB Kingston Predator 2400Mhz 10-12-11-29
MSI Lightning GTX680/ full unlocked
Pc is full watercooled, but my ENG is very bad, im not sure what you ask "please post your entire specifications set up so that we know and can be of better help" But my problem is managed, i hope Asus will repair this bug for all users.

Thx again

im runing 0095 lol for Max Formula 5 its so damn stable

[Gestler]

So, now i have new problem. If I set XMP profil for my 2400Mhz Kingston (HyperX Predator) to 2400Mhz, target freg. still stay on 2133Mhz but timing is set automaticaly for 2400Mhz. If I set manualy Ram to 2400MHz, mobo dont start. I set 12-14-14-35/ 1,75V but didnt work. Now it work on 2133Mhz 9-11-10-25 CR1 /1,72V 100% stable, this fact force me to think - ram can work on 2400Mhz, but somethink is wrong with my mobo (V Exteme). (sorry for my ENG)

Where is problem? Noob Ram, another bug in bios, or i am Noob?
Thx in advance.

[zanzabar]

i would think it changed it down when it failed the test preboot. you should need to change more than the ram voltage/timings to run 2400.

[Leeghoofd]

I hope you are not trying to run them 2400 sticks with a 2600K...

[Gestler]

Yes i trying, am I noob? Now if i see your question, I mean yes now I expect 2600K have only 2133Mhz memory controler? i cant find relevant info ... on intel web - 1066/1333Mhz

you can do 2133 perfect on 2600K but not 2400 i mean for 24/7 that 2400+ Ivy land

new maximus v formula in da house,0095 bios flashed and all works fine
3870x2 single and crossfire its ok,i will try later to run some benchmarks for boints

[noobzed]

Excuse me, I'll install M5F in few hours, which bios is far the better for ALL : OC, gaming, stability ...
Can you advice me on ram, with iMC ~ 1300, 8 GB at least BUT with the fastest timings ?
( 2 x 4GB @ 9-10-10-1T @ 1.7V max for example, is it utopic ? )

[Alex-Ro]

2600 9-10-10 is utopic yeah....

i dont have that problem sure your GPU and CPU are stable ? if not try new drivers are awesome i have a post on NVIDIA thread 314.21

And probably best bios for M5F would be ... ?

I just installed the latest bios from asus 1604, i like the new feature, it allow me to select the OC 4.2 - 4.6 or 4.8 and all other setting adjust automatic.
I just select 4.2Ghz save and exit, and no problem at all

[noobzed]

A bit too much, too easy, no ?
One click and ** baamm ** oc to 4.8
Is there similar option in bios 0095, andressergio ?

[koc]

One click only all what you need to go to 4.8Ghz, I was have 1408 and no similar option.

Wow, big change. Quality of graphic is much better(sry for ENG) i mean, no bugs in Cry3, textures ... image much better, i dont know, how to explain in ENG, but FPS drops is worst, frametime is worst, i can see stutering, imputlag is bigger ,it is realy bad...but image quality is simply better.

Hey Guys...
Just got a Maximus V Formula and a Lsi 9261-8i card and have the same issue. Bios is 1604 on the M5F.

I did get into the web bios for the first time when i had just plugged in the card with 4 new hard drives. After setting up a raid 5 array i rebooted . Ever since that first time i cannot for the life of me get in to Web Bios.

It says something like web bios will start after reboot when i hit ctrl+h but nothing happens. I cant seem to figure out the Ctrl +h and then right after F8 method that Nodens on the ROG forums has described.

http://rog.asus.com/forum/showthread...702#post239702

If i disconnect all my drives from the Lsi 9261-8i then i can enter web bios cause it gives me the error of not having any drives plugged in.

I tried everything that was mentioned in a bunch of old threads here disabling all boot drives , changing everything in CSM to oprom but i still cant get into web bios

Any help in this regard will he really appreciated guys.. Im close to pulling my hair out.
Please advice on what to do guys .. I just cant seem to get into web bios.

Thank you tons in advance guys..

Cheers and kind regards !
