Link updated.

Are you running the command prompt as Admin? Can you take a screenshot?

Can you check if Intel ME version got updated?

What if you wait 30-60s?

These bioses should work well, can you guys verify? Maximus VIII Extreme 3201 Maximus VIII Formula 3201 Maximus VIII Gene 3201 Maximus VIII Hero Alpha 3201 Maximus VIII Hero 3201 Maximus VIII Impact 3201

Did this on Formula which has the same DRAM layout. For anything overclocking you'll be best served with Apex which uses a slightly different VRM controller and drivers. The other skews should be the same in terms of VRM parts and DRAM layout.

ROG Maximus IX series Disclamer: This is not an official support thread and tools/software is provided as is. Use at your own risk. Obviously most of you here will want our new ROG Maximus IX Apex board, which is targeted directly to high performance users. Memory OC is great as expected and highest we've seen so far is 4220 12-11-28-1T running 32M Waza. Coolest new overclocking feature is the RSVD switch which allows you to bench CBB free with most CPUs :celebration: See the OC guide for details. It's written for M9A but applies to all boards except for certain missing features. Latest beta bioses Maximus IX Apex 0023 0801 with USB over-current detection disabled. 0801 Use in most scenarios. 0701 This bios has i3-7350K ratio adjustment fixed for TurboV Core & ROG Connect Plus. 0026 Similar to 0701 but slightly older, seems to work well for a lot of people. 0013 Like 0026 but half as good. 0091 Like 0088 but with support for Core i3-7350K. 0088 Might fix CBB issues with RSVD switch on some CPUs. Note that this BIOS behaves differently during POST with B-die + high voltage. Do not use this bios for Core i3-7350K as it's not updated for it.

08 most definitely should be the controller I2C address. I'm not sure what 96 60 is supposed to be, could be setting register 0x96 = 0x60. But I don't know how that would relate to E6, especially if this VGA bios is not for a card with NCP81022. You wouldn't have to have access to something that is able to sniff i2c? Logic analyzer, bus pirate or arduino for example? You could try changing to 20 E6 10 and see if you get 100mV offset.

Yes, this one. From v1b6 it's only named evc_log.txt. Found another bug, hopefully works now https://www.dropbox.com/s/h1xmvluu483z3z6/eVc%20v1b6%20161226-3.zip?dl=0

Sorry I meant the evc_log.txt file.

Or try this https://www.dropbox.com/s/rub579uir5j0lct/eVc%20v1b6%20121226-2.zip?dl=0 This version should also start a lot faster and be way more conservative with memory usage.

Can you upload the log-file?

Thanks, found the mistake. This version should work https://www.dropbox.com/s/iua3ar8pqckyige/eVc%20v1b5%20161226.zip?dl=0

No problem. Happy Holidays!

Which version of the evc software are you using? Can you try latest from here? https://www.dropbox.com/s/rj6aohe4ln3d0q3/eVc%20v1b5%20161224.zip?dl=0

Register E6 should be able to go above 100mV, just that by default afterburner is limited to this value using the GUI.

Great! Try this version, hopefully monitoring is working better and added PWM frequency as well. Can you try setting Output voltage offset to 10/20/30 using the dropdown menu and record the values so I can add the mV offset instead of just numbers? https://www.dropbox.com/s/rj6aohe4ln3d0q3/eVc%20v1b5%20161224.zip?dl=0 The monitoring dropping out is because GPUZ is reading the same data and thus "competing" for the data. If you disable monitoring in the evc software it should be fine.

There's a slight chance it could break something. But I'd say the risk is relatively small and would probably try it myself.

Sounds like what I suspected was true. There is an alternative register you could try but I'm not a 100% sure what it does. If you don't want to risk your card you should not try it. If you're up to the task however, try this using "Send custom command" from the Menu: Enter Address 20 Register E6 Data 10 ("R/W Word" unchecked), press Write and check if the output voltage changed.

On ROG boards just use USB BIOS Flashback, it's safer than the above method.

MEI is only reset if you reflash the BIOS using USB BIOS Flashback. EZFlash will not reset the MEI configuration.

If you signed the NDA or not is irrelevant. The effects are longer term/next generation. Lets say Intel starts tracking their ES properly. As Splave mentioned this would hamper development and give very limited options for partners to work with 3rd parties. Ironically media sites would be hit very hard, only those with direct connections to Intel would be able to have content at launch. The leaks lately are insane, everything is out there. Full reviews and performance of the full Kaby lineup. Every bit of information on Zen. Even X299 is leaked.

Is the MEI driver installed according to the device manager? Did you try installing all the services in the sub folders of the TurboV Core installation package? Did you disable any Asus services? Z170 also on XP? It sounds like you have incorrect speedstep/turbo mode/c-states settings. What do you mean with x99ratio fail in loop?

Any 0402 0.1-1uF capacitor should work. Go for a higher value if you want to be safe.
