***Official Gigabyte Z77X-UP4 TH, Z77X-UP5 TH and Z77X-UP7 discussion thread***

Well i have just built a new system.
i7 3770k
z77x-UP4 TH
256gb SSD
8gb Samsung green
Corsair TX850M psu
Gpu,case etc from my last system, anyway i have had issues with the USB sockets on this mobo.

I know it has a sticker above the lan port to use those USB sockets for mouse and keyboard, but when i installed windows i did have an issue with my mechanicahl keyboard being recognised so had to use another usb keyboard.
Once windows was installed i had issues with having my Logitech G930 wireless headset and Logitech G400 mouse both being recognised.
They all work fine on the USB 2s on the front of my case but the headset will only work by using the 2 USB sockets below the Lan and the front sockets so four can't be used with this. I have found a few people have had USB issues, is there an option in the bios i can change so these work with other items?
It may have been mentioned but this is a long thread so gonna take some reading.
Thanks
 
any of you folks losing bios settings? as in everythin reverts to reading auto yet it still remembers the overclock you had?

been testing up4 th with a few latest beta's,now testing latest final to see if its a beta bios bug

that's after powering off pc for a day or two at a time

Not quite the same, but on my UP5 with the F12g BIOS I would set up a 4.6Ghz overclock in the BIOS just like I have done numerous times before and yet CPU-Z/CPUID all said I was still at the previous 4.5Ghz (no matter how many installs of these sort of programs I tried).

Put F13a onto it and all was good again, hence my comment above to avoid the F12g rubbish.

I had a few issues with f12g losing settings,Most of the issues were with ram speed, but once I moved to f13a all was well again:)
 
Hi there, having trouble oc'ing my samsung green past 2200Mhz. Can do 2200mhz with 10-10-10-30 timings and 1.6v, but won't do tighter timings than that. Also failed 2400mhz with 11-11-11-30 at 1.65v. However, am still on F9 bios - would that likely make any difference? Any thoughts otherwise on oc'ing this memory? Thanks!

You can try a newer BetaBIOS sure, but considering you have RAM rated at 1600Mhz running at 2200, you've done well I reckon.

You may find some working settings in here for higher.
 
Just sticking with the RAM at the mo. Haven't touched the CPU yet - very much in the process of learning how to overclock this platform..

2200mhz even at 11-11-11-30 1t with 1.6v failed prime95 in the end... However then read something about IMC and CPU VTT voltages. So I upped them slightly to .935 and 1.075 respectively and these settings seemed to work...

What's the best "quick" test for memory stability? Doing 3 hrs of prime95 blend - anything better?

The settings being mentioned here seem very much unachievable with these sticks, unless the IMC and VTT voltages make much difference?
 
Help!! My bios seems to have stopped doing anything...

I flashed to the F11a bios. Spent the last couple of days messing with RAM settings, which worked fine (now have them at 2133, 9-10-10-26 T1). Then I tried overclocking the CPU (43 ratio, 100 BCLK, plus a couple of voltage tweaks): the bios seemed to accept these, restarted fine, booted to windows fine, but the CPUZ still showed the multiplier at 38. Restarted and went back in the BIOS, which shows the CPU running at 38 multi, but the settings are where I left them (ie 43 multi, etc). Changing these seems to have no effect. I also reset the BIOS and booted up with the defaults, and then changed the settings again, and still get the same result: settings are as I enter them, but they have no effect on what the CPU is actually doing. The bizarre thing is that meanwhile the RAM is always running at the custom settings above, even though the BIOS settings have reverted to auto.

Anyone know what's going on? Completely puzzled!

This is a UP4 board yeah?

Try a previous BIOS such as F10/F10b
