Not sure about that I dislike ASrock boards. I've owned one and it failed in the first 6 months. i decided then I would never buy another one. Alot of people have good luck with them, I'm not one of those people.

Thank you for the advice. I tried the 20 multi and all I seen is my bios start up page. As I wrote even 12x185 is no good. I used to do 190-193 x 21 with this chip/board but after a crash in the Gigabyte OC software while changing the blck from 190 to 133 I failing doing a decent OC. I might have overlooked a setting but I doubt it. But as I said, when I cool off I will push reset and start over.

Have you disabled speedstep/eist, it may show the 21 multi then

EDIT: Or keep the 20 multi and enable Turbo, speedstep and eist and it should go to 21 multi when under load and drop down when idle

Take notes. It helps figuring out what you did if you have to go back, like you are doing now.

Yeah many have nothing but good to say about them. I got my deal figured out though. All i had to do was clear cmos then reload and it worked.

Yeah it's always been disabled. I got it figured out though, just had to clear cmos and then reload BIOS.

Yeah I found that my last board ran better with even multi's, although the one I have running now doesnt seem to care as much.
It's a D stepping that has been runing fine at 190 x 21 for 45 days straight @ 1.28 V.

Edit: two MB/CPU treads I see.

Are you OC within the bios? are you using the gigabyte software to do your OC with.
I never had any luck unless I OC within the bios.

Damn, your having no luck.I hate it when boards start to be flaky after running perfectly for so long.

Like you say, go grab a beer and cool off and then come back to it

Just test with the Easytune software and then transfer the settings to bios.I found that it works better that way.

@ Josh thx but I have OC'ed this chip in two different MBs for some time now and I can remember all the settings that used to work, in fact I only crashed it once in the x58a-ud5 until two days ago. I now repeat what have worked in the past - a slight OC in bios and small steps in the Easytune OC software.

+1 I do the same thing on most of mine also. I also take a screen shot of it and keep it for my records in case I ever had to set it backup again.

Yeah as Easytune dosnt load it's settings till after windows starts, then it can cause problems when booting with too high an overclock and not the proper settings in bios.

At this rate, USPS will assign you or own zip code very soon. It'll be so much easier for them to sort out packages for you.
