I've just built my system for the first time and am getting nowhere with this bios. Can't get my i2600k system to o/c whatsoever 
Any advice pls?
The whole 'By All Cores' thing is messed up - unselectable. I can only the CPU multiplier under 'CPU Power Management' however. But still, I can't get past 3412mhz without the system locking up.
Wish I'd tried an earlier bios now without jumping right in...

Definitely something up here.. My computer doesn't eve boot properly when i attempt to underclock it Only auto seems to work.
Only auto seems to work.

What is the main benefit of having per core set rather the by all cores?

Guys this is driving me mad. I've set 1.328v in the bios for my 4.5ghz overclock. In windows Speedstep downclocks to 1.6ghz but the voltage still stays at 1.328. What setting do I use to make cpu voltage come down as well? C1e, c3 and c6 states are all enabled as is speedstep.

You choose offset mode rather then setting 1.328. That's the only way idle voltage will be lower.

Thanks cplhardnut.

Best thing in my opinion is to set the bios at default on the EZ menu and save and exit. Go back in and in the AI Tweaker section set the AI overclock tuner to Auto, Memory frequency Auto or to your RAM setting example 1600. Set OC Tuner to either "All cores" or "Per Core" and then below that you will have 1 box for "all cores" or 4 boxes for "per core" set them to your OC level you want (4.4Gig = 44).
Set Load line calibration to Ultra High
Set Phase control to Extreme
Set T probe to extreme
CPU Voltage to manual and enter 3.2 for 4.4Gig etc (Just what im using)
DRAM voltage i have not tested this on Auto but assume it will work on Auto but i have mine set to 1.5 on 2 x 2GB of XMS 1600.
Press F10 and see how you go
Please note these are the settings im using and may not work with your system.

Cheers, I'll try that 
Just a thought - could it be that the clock speed that's initially reported during post isn't representative of the clock speed you get when running apps in Windows? I'm just wondering whether it's throttled on boot.
Can anyone confirm that overclocking results are shown under POST?

lol my bad im tired 1.32
And i dont see the clock speeds in post i see them as 3.33 or something around that
It does not show in windows either to me in the My computer properties.
Get the latest version of CPUZ and Intel burn test and run the burn test with CPUZ open and you will see the "real" clock speed in there.
Hope this helps.

Standard and other models now updated
If you check back to the link in the OP, they have now supplied the new bios for the standard model and others.

Having some pretty nasty issues here with the latest BIOS and a G.Skill RipJawX 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C7 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit.
with 4gb in i get a solid red LED and have to MEMOK! it to attempt to get into bios but it will just hang after 5 minutes. Each stick is fine individually. both =fail. Im running 2gb just to get here to post this .
The previous BIOS seemed to work ok. Im considering re flashing and leaving it a while... MIGHT RMA this memory and get some more decent stuff...
any advice appreciated!
Still having cold boot issue too.... quite unimpressed.

DO NOT DOWNLOAD THE NEW P8P67 PRO BIOS IF YOU USE A DUAL RAID SETUP!!!
I have 2 Intel 80GB SSD's in RAID0 and 2 Samsung HDD's in RAID1 on the Intel controller.
I was previously using the 1003 BIOS and had no problems. After updating to 1253 it broke my RAID0 SSD array that windows is installed on, now I can't even use my computer.
Another problem with this stupid update is you can't rollback to a previous version anymore. I get a message "image outdated" or similar. Looks like i'm stuffed.

Read the post above mate because i had the same problem too and Bito explained how to fix it so read his post on how to get the "per core" staying set.
Just use Auto instead of manual or XMP then set the per core.
