  1. Sorry if you can't get what you get with F6 on the mem with i or k bios, I can get the same scores with both Gigabyte, G.Skill, Corsair and Adata, haven't tried Kingston yet. Send me your F6 profile, then I can compare it and maybe transfer it to i or k bios. I just can't boot my mem settings from X-Bios over 7k with F6 Bios ;).

    At the moment the priority is on new platforms coming out in a few months, so it will be difficult to have the F6 bios changed to X with all OC adjustments in the short term, if a new bios comes out, I would upload it as usual.

    am sure but we dont have the same ram. Seemingly i have Richtek PMIC and it behaves different. All i can say is its sad to see a marvel of Hardware being held back by flaky bios solutions. How can a formal Bios F6 be not overclockable for cache neither in bios nor in GTL with a superficial block at 4700Mhz.  i believe i have a great IMC. otherwise i would not be doing 6800 T1  on 1.515/1.545 v. There is no way to do this with the good ram i have on X3i nor X3k bios.  or maybe its time for a X3l bios that actually let us unleash the Tachyon to its real potential ?

    If you use sub zero, take x3i or x3k bios, these are for extreme oc but you can use it also for air/water tests. With x3i or x3k you can change RTL`s and set these tighter, this is not possible with F6 bios. And yes, you can`t go over 4700 with cache with F6 bios (not in bios not in GTL), for higher cache you should use X-Bios. All bios versions on Giga homepage are for "normal" user and not for extreme-oc. This is also why I test all different bios versions and upload it here.

    Why we don`t have X3L or X3M bios? becaus X3i and X3k are perfect for extreme OC, don`t need to update bios if it works good.

    You can check all my scores, I don`t have any problems with x3i and 12900k/ks also with all core settings (12Gen comp). GTL works perfectly and I can change settings in bios or later in OS with GTL.

    Regarding Mem, on air it`s hard to boot more than 6800 also with good CPU but as soon your cpu is cold, you shouldn`t have problems with 7k+. Very important, set all your timings manually and not XMP. Take my uploaded profile, you can see all my standard settings for Mem on Air. With cold CPU and cold Mem I can start with 12900ks 7800 with 30-42-42-28 and it`s also stable ;). Haven`t tested A-Hynix so far, will see how it will works as soon I can get one kit.

    Seems is want the best of two worlds..

    Its easy to get my Kingston Fury renegades 6400Mts up to 7000 on F6 bios. simply using the 6400 Hynix boost profile and increasing voltages to just above 1.5 Volts. I can do 6800 without touching anything. I could even clock it bclk up to 7300. However for some reason or another the Cache frequency on the F6 bios does not want to go beyond 4700 no matter what i turn off or on.

    Meanwhile on X3k and X3i i am lucky if i can boot on 6600 and usually would need much higher voltages. 1.55  or above and wont be stabile.

    Does anyone know what is blocking the cache on the F6 bios as seemingly it would otherwise be the best for me ?. im still using my 12900ks

    I don`t use Tachyon in my main system, only for OC and testing on Air.

    Usually you can boot without any problems with 6800, with good IMC and right mem-settings are also 7k possible.

    Try these settings: SA 1,250 / VDDQ 1,25 / VDD2 1,35 / Mem 1,575/1,525 (my settings for 6800 with KS)

    Sergmann I found one work around. Its seems that if I use the  latest Win 10 version i can download it is reported correct. Not so in older Win 10versions nor in Win server 2012R2. This apply to anything thats using benchmate. This both on X3k and F6 bios

    I have tested it today also. It looks like BenchMate and old Win10 show us wrong settings. It’s like sometimes in old BenchMate versions, 12900k and KS are visible as 3400 CPU

  5. I can`t belive it, I use x3i with k/ks and non k cpu`s, don`t have this problem.

    you can check my last score with ks, everything looks fine.

     

    take one empty fat32 usb drive and put x3i bios on it. rename it with gigabyte.bin and flash via Q-Flash. I think here is something wrong with your flash of bios

  6. You can choose different GPU in last slot for BCLK, for 3D and BCLK of course also first slot.

    if you can’t boot higher BCLK, set your Mem down, for example to 3800 and test how far you can go with it.

    SA doesn’t exist with G7400

    DRAM VDD 1.35 VDD2 1.45 it’s a good value for Air and LN2 benching 

    i think your problem is Mem at the moment.

    you can try my uploaded profile to see how I’ve set Mem, maybe it will help you

     

  7. You can use all x3-versions for XP and Win7. What you need is CSM, as long it’s not enabled, you can’t use XP or Win7. 

    I prefer X3i bios for all CPU‘s also for KS. Last uploaded GTL works also for XP and Win7, don’t have problems with it.

    Regarding MCU, for K/KF CPU‘s without e-cores and with AVX512 support you need 0x15 microcode but you can also select it for KS.

    for non-k CPU‘s it’s already described here I’m Thread, select microcode 0x09

    If I'm already mentioned by name :).

    I have no problem with not breaking the rules about hardware sharing or availability/download of the programs and bioses you use for comp. If everyone follows these rules, fair competition works.

    Like you, I also delivered a video for microcode because it is not visible in the MM tool.
    Ever since Corsair Comp, I've been meticulous about making sure the programs and bios we use for comps are online. Assuming someone is using a "special" bios with more futures isn't nice either ;)

    I don't think this is the right place to discuss it either, let's go back to the OC and have a beer together when we get a chance.
