i`ve bought this mobo 3 months already and still can`t overclock! i`m a noob here.  so what bothering me till today is the bios setting. whenever i change the cpu ratio, and htlink, it seems that it don`t change at all (not execute the changes when reboot). then i flash bios to the latest version (F8), i thought all the problems solved. but just now i`ve tried to change the settings. cpu ratio and cpu speed seems going fine but now the problem is htlink. i changed htlink settings from auto to 3x and then reboot.. check with cpuz in winxp and nothings happen. it still shows the default. should it be 1000MHz or something when in default settings rite? correct me if i`m wrong. then what is the problem exactly? thanks.. SOLUTION : flash your bios to the lastest (F10) version. get it from hereThis post has been edited by serez: May 28 2007, 05:32 PM

QUOTE(tAmp0i @ Jan 2 2007, 03:49 PM) Press Ctrl + F1 in the bios menu to unlock additional features like memory timings etc. I've tried M55S-S3 which i believed should be more or less the same with SLI-S4.... yeap already access the hidden menus. but the problem is the mobo itself, it can`t execute the changes in bios settings..

QUOTE(ddww @ Jan 4 2007, 10:07 PM) i think not... it will still remain 33mhz even u pull up your fsb... yup agree with u. there is no reason why pci bus should be increase deh. i`ve tried it before, it still remains 33mhz.

QUOTE(-pWs- @ Apr 23 2007, 10:06 PM) That is weird, F1 should not make your frequency default First, if u wan to oc, u better get a good psu. And, gigabyte is not a supreme overclock board for amd -pWs-yeah you r rite bro.  after 6months waiting and now oni i can o/c this thing.. QUOTE(evilmashi @ Apr 24 2007, 12:57 AM) for now its 230. im going to try for 240 later. btw where to change the vcore ? i cant find the menu maybe its in hidden menu. or in M.I.T. menu oso have that setting.. but for ur board.. i`m not very sure la bro try to look up the bios release at gigabyte website. maybe this can help.
