    P67/Z68 BIOS collection

    in Sandy Bridge (P67/Z68) OC

    Posted · Edited by ME4ME

    Anyone having a newer EFI-Bios than 0414 for the P8P67M-PRO?

     

    It seems the PLL overvoltage fix isnt working properly. Enabled or Disabled doesn't make any difference.. 51x multi is the max either way... .. or its just my CPU being crappy /

     

    also ive experienced weird startups, where it goes from Bios-> boot -> black screen before loading windows -> manually shutdown -> boot -> loading windows perfectly.

     

    EDIT: just noticed there is a 0601 beta EFI ... will try that one for now.

    3DMark11 added to HWBOT?

    in Benchmark software

    my vote is definitly: YES, add it to hwbot.

     

    why: we shouldnt expect anything to be free. Besides, 20 dollar isnt that much compared to other expenses you've got to pay for even getting an interesting score.. People have been paying 06/vantage licenses too ... why not pay those couple of $ for this benchmark...

     

    "- Subtest details not visible offline

    - Basic version = no offline score

    - Not possible to submit score from non-DX11 system"

     

    ..if everyone would get their license, the first 2 issues would not exist

    3rd issue is a bit annoying though, FM should fix that....

     

    and while being at it, as for my personal opinion: i rather have Heaven and 3dmark11 as point-awarding benchmarks here at Hwbot, then the outdated Aquamark and 3dmark2001. New hardware should be benched with reasanable new software ... especially with the somewhat poor validation for the really old ones..

    this actually isn't that supricing at all..

    think about it, which company is willing to put money into an old product which they don't gain anything from anymore...its quite simple.

     

    Anyway... removing scores and features of 3dmark 01/03/05 would really be sad for the overclocking community.. Ive no clue where the actuall cost are made at futuremark... but wouldnt it work just to remove the database (which i assume is the most expensive part?) and only have some sort of online validator left? ... like for example making it possible for users to validate, take a screenshot of it, and thats it.

     

    anyway.. another reason for HWbot to also look for other nice benchmarks out there.

    if you ask me, HWbot may as well start giving points for Heaven benchmark asap

    Appart from score and person, i think its no big deal to ask for some more validation in a contest where its all about trust, because of the 4Ghz limit.

     

    Besides that, id love to see a score like Sam's actually being done on video. It doesn't even have to include CW etc ... just cpu-z showing 4Ghz and the superpi screen running 32M would clear up things for sure :)

     

     

     

    Edit: ooh bye the way, congrats to Nickshih for winning Stage2.

    Not because he came #1, but because of the really amazing score he pulled of. Great benching there Nick ;)
