*** Gigabyte P67 BIOS update thread ****

F7 has lowered my v-core versus F3 and it's snappier (if that's a word). Only a mild oc 4.4Ghz and 1.32v at the bios. F3 required 1.36 with LCC (edit LLC) enable.

I don't plan to go any higher as I was aiming for 4.0 :)
 
F7 is far and the way the most mature of all the BIOS for the boards. And it is firmly aimed at the 24/7 user.

The interface has been speeded up. Snappier = more responsive. :) That is true. And the rough edges of the previous BIOS versions are starting to be smoothed over.

There are a number of other Beta BIOS for the UD7 that I could share like the F7f or the F7x bios but there is no real point in doing so. The F7e is the most stable of those beta bios that offers PLL over rider so would be a waste of time.
 
My UD4 keeps reverting back to F3 when I update it. Even when F6 installed properly a few weeks ago, the other day it decided it wanted F3 back.

Anyone else had this before?
 
Known effect of over sensitive dual bios. F3 is the cause.

Here is how you fix that.

Select the bios that you are most happy with.
Flash you board to that bios.
Set all default.
F10 enter
On reboot just as the screen comes to life and you can see the start of the text or splash screen.
Press Alt + F12 same time
that will take you to the flash back up bios option. Here the back up bios will be flashed to the same bios you have as your current bios.
All sorted

Think I'll be doing this tonight, do you need a PS/2 keyboard? Sure I read that in one of the threads.
 
I use USB keyboards and mouse. But each system is unique and if you struggle with USB then worth trying the PS/2
 
Hopefully they fixed it in later bioses, but at the time LLC just didn't work on the UD3 and I didn't have time to hang about :)
 
Load Level correction.

Most users Standard is enough.

You have three levels, standard, level1, and level2

Either way Standard is meant to be for normal people or those who want a energy efficient system, level1 is supposed be for mild overclockers who want really low vdroop and vdrop, level2 is supposed to be for extreme ocers who want the most stability in voltage delivery. That is why level2 will never drop voltage under 10mv of what you set it at idle and will increase voltage during load. So what you set is what you get plus more, a lot more actually.

In the past there was no LLC, then we got smarter PWMs(analogue and digital) and now most of them use separate ICs for loadline equation and phases switching. Now we have LLC in multiple levels on the good boards(Gigabyte and ASUS mainly) not every digital vrm board has multiple levels of LLC.
 
Anyone tried the F8 BIOS for the GA-H67MA-UD2H? It's still not on the Gigabyte site itself, but was wondering what if anything it brings?
 
Nope since I am happy as Larry on F6 I see no point in giving it a try. Try the other fix I posted before you flash to the new BIOS.
