March 11, 201213 yr FYI, the UD7 is apparently EOL Hmmm, it didn't take so much time to get the EOL status. Lol.
March 11, 201213 yr FYI, the UD7 is apparently EOL exactly, the limited period or QTY release, of the UD7 is over ~
March 12, 201213 yr There's something else in the pipeline, though ... The S is already official, but, thats for UD5 :-/
March 12, 201213 yr Author Now dont pretend to wait for any better BIOS updates for the UD7? I don't think there will be new BIOSes with structural improvements. Maybe a general update once in a while, but that'll be it.
March 13, 201213 yr Author I don't think there will be new BIOSes with structural improvements. Maybe a general update once in a while, but that'll be it. Guess I was wrong ... new BIOSes for Giga lineup http://hwbot.org/forum/showpost.php?p=160680&postcount=174
March 13, 201213 yr Guess I was wrong ... new BIOSes for Giga lineup http://hwbot.org/forum/showpost.php?p=160680&postcount=174 I will try it soon. Thanks.
March 16, 201213 yr Okay, F11a still has a bug, that was also present in the F10. When PCH 1.1V and PCH 1.5V voltages are set to "Normal" in the Chipset Voltage Control Section then the CPU does not receive its voltage set by the user. Eg. if the above mentioned voltages are set to "Normal" and CPU Vcore is set to 1.4V, then the CPU receives only 1.15V. If these are set to anothet value, then everything is okay. HGyu
March 31, 201213 yr Using F11a BIOS in combination with i7-3820 and of course the UD7. The weird behaviour is the following: After CMOS reset I enter the UEFI setup. Load optimized defaults, reboot, then enter the UEFI setup again. The system is running idle while staying in the setup. Everything is at its default value. NOW pressing any of the the power button (the mounted one at the corner, or the other one of the front panel header) the system hangs totally holding the last screen state on the display. Reset is okay then. Any newer BIOS? Thanks, George.
September 22, 201212 yr Hello, I just built my new setup with I7 3960X Gigabyte X79 UD7 OC Bios F10 & F11 4X4 G.Skill TridentX 2400C10 CFX 7970 Alim corsair TX750W monorail 62A WD Velociraptor 150Go Unfortunately I can't set my RAM to 2400mhz CAS 10 since my desktop keeps rebooting when I do it. Tried XMP profile and same thing happens, same with custom mode. Even 2133 doesn't work. WIth another kit (Gskill Ripjaws 2133 C9 4x 2GB) I got no problem setting the RAM with the XMP profile @ 2133mhz. Any thoughts? http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?277001-***Official***-X79-UD7-Owners-Club-Discussion-Info/page15
September 22, 201212 yr I do not think the G.Skill RAM @ 1200MHz is intented for Z79. Not all s2011 CPUs have an IMC strong enough for 1200MHz. 1066MHz should work with the right timings though....have you tried making the timings slacker? It's also possible it's partly down to 4x4GB. What is your tRAS and tRFC for example? Edited September 22, 201212 yr by K404

What is your tRAS and tRFC for example? Have you tested on another vendor's X79 board? I had no problems running multiple kits at 2400+ on X79, granted most were 4X2GB and not all 4X4GB, regardless it should work.
September 23, 201212 yr I have the tridentX2666 4x4 and i got it running good in my X79S-UP5 at 2400 Cas10. DId you try increasing VTT and IMC? maybe to 1.2v ont he IMC and 1.15 on the VTT. Just to test it out.
September 4, 201311 yr Any Ivy-E BIOSes out? Seems like f11z wont work... What is the numbers on retail chip? Every review,used ES chips.
September 4, 201311 yr From my contact at GB a few days before launch: After a BIOS update, the X79-UP4 rev1.1 and X79-UD3 rev 1.1 boards will support IVB-E. Not sure when the rest are getting the new BIOSes.
