@Moonman Have you done any core or memory overclocking?

to finally answer this:

it seems to be fully functional oc wise.

Only thing unusual is: power-limits need to remain on auto. Otherwise it'll power throttle.

TurboV also no problem.

Flashed with programmer.

Hi! can I still use this modded bios? I'm planning to buy a 9900k. also which ram is best to use in combination with this motherboard and the 9900k? I have a 3000mhz lpx now.

Do I need to solder like the one in the first picture? and for the second picture, how can i isolate those 2 circles? and short the other 2?

Hope someone can help. thanks!

Anybody still has pictures of the mods from first post? I'm interested in Maximus VIII Gene. 9xxx series in those boards are really affordable even now for daily PC :)

Hey guys,

I got a working Z270 XP that I did on my Maximus 9 Apex. That board since went kablamo. I want to keep using that Windows with a Z270F Gaming Strix. It boots and works but I don't have any chipset or USB support. Any hints? 

I don't think there's a mod bios for that board and I can't install any of the drivers pinned in the startpost because of too old windows version (they're all Win7+). I'm not even sure I can reinstall XP on that board without a modded BIOS.
