dex94 Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 asrock , asus and msi are ready what about gigabyte ? Quote
der8auer Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 Maybe because Intel is not happy about it. But it's just a guess. Quote
dex94 Posted December 19, 2015 Author Posted December 19, 2015 yes surely , i feel unlucky with my ga z170x g7 and i7 6700 (6700k out of stock),i think gigabyte do the same withheld about unlock turbo ratio in the past . last gigabyte motherboard for me if nothing move. Quote
Mr.Scott Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 Maybe because Intel is not happy about it. But it's just a guess. It's a pretty good guess. Quote
johnwaynr Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 Intel closed non-z oc in haswell in about 10 days. I bet right now they making a microcode update to close this thing down. This is why gigabyte won't even bothering to make non-k bioses Quote
Splave Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 They can change the microcode but the current micro code is well mature enough than we will ever need on this platform. Also asrock allows you to change micro code in the BIOS so no problem changing BIOS Quote
Mr.Scott Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 So what you're saying is we can expect a mechanical lock from Intel on upcoming batches. Quote
johnwaynr Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 They can change the microcode but the current micro code is well mature enough than we will ever need on this platform. Also asrock allows you to change micro code in the BIOS so no problem changing BIOS So if you get your skylake non-k oc working, and won't update bios you will be good like forever? Unless you will update your bios they can do nothing to shot it down? But that story http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/g3258-owners-windows-10-will-not-install-boot-when-overclocked.214699/ shows they could force you to update your bios Quote
l0ud_sil3nc3 Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 It works on Giga, I'm sure they will release when ready. Quote
johnwaynr Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 Maybe they want to make it right, with power saving mode etc? But it still pretty suspicious, #JUSTDOITGIGABYTE Quote
zvonexp Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 i asked giga. tech support.. and they answered this to me  Dear ZvoneXP,  Your valuable feedback is the motivation for us to improve and serve you better.
