Taipei, Taiwan – February 1, 2011 – GIGABYTE TECHNOLOGY Co., Ltd, a leading manufacturer of motherboards, graphics cards and other computing hardware solutions, today announced that GIGABYTE has been alerted by Intel about a 6 series chipset design error. GIGABYTE is working closely with Intel® to minimize the inconvenience to customers and retail stores with regard to related issues.

 

A recent statement from Intel indicates that they expect full 6 series chipset volume recovery in April, 2011. GIGABYTE will produce and deliver new motherboards with the updated Intel 6 series chipset when the new chipsets become available. GIGABYTE prides itself in having the highest service quality in the industry, and as such we will resolve this issue with minimal impact on our customers.

Yay, My gigabyte mobo will be replace by new chipset when they comes (maybe in may?) with no service charge. :D

tested on my C43 and confirmed by a friend on C45 - latest bios somehow has problems with 2133 on teh RAM. 185 could boot 2133 but not stable, 187 will hang up during boot with "45".

Only improvement I could remark: 1.5 Vcore instead of 1.35

I have 2133 problems with 1.8B11 on gd55. 2133 is not possible any more, event with cl10 it wont boot and cl8 2133 was no problem with older bios.
I think it problem with some chip(I've had same trouble with Elpida Hyper).

so is there any way to get subtests to show in 01 on p8p67 motherboards?

3Dmk01 "P8P67 show subtests guide"

1. Run.

2. Push "Online result browser".

3. Push "Show details"

4. Don't PUSH "I agree"

I was wondering if BIOS development would continue or not based on the recall.. good to know it continues.

 

It kinda stopped untill Intel said they were starting to ship faulty chips again. I guess the support would've stopped if Intel would not have agreed upon that.
