F8a is the latest Beta, if the board has a dual bios switch then you can flash the backup with it while leaving your mainbios with F7 alone?

It does. Does the beta BIOS add LLC control then?
Caporegime
I am 100% surprised your F7 and whatever was the first release BIOS doesn't have it.
You are looking in the advance voltage section? its the same layout as the OC board you had.
It's only got VRIN LLC, not vcore.
Caporegime
Is it given the same name while looking at the basic UEFI mode?
Yeah. I assumed it was the same as vcore but looked it up and it seems not.
Flashed the beta, it's all working fine but there aren't any more options.

Unfortunately I don't have a haswell system built up to look and ive forgotten most of the BIOS settings/names etc these past couple of weeks.
The beta seemed to break overclocking so I've reverted back to F7. The BIOS only mentions that one LLC setting, but regardless of that I've never seen the voltage change during stress tests so the board may automatically handle it.

Picked up a 4770k + board for a customers PC which broke, turned out it was the board, tried to sell the chip, gave in and bought another board (Hero) and now trying to offload my 3570k + P8Z77-V which did 4.5ghz all day on 1.2v.
Honestly wish I hadnt bothered! A week of tweaking got 4.5ghz stable @ 1.34v. 4.4ghz needs 1.31v. 4.3ghz 1.28v. Temps are fine thanks to water loop but still annoyed, awesome motherboard, great cooling, and a total dog of a chip. Going to run it at 4.5 til I get a chance to swop it out.
