Hi Guys~

Before, I find leaked bios of H97 mobo(MartinNixon0422's thread), and today I find B85 chipset m/b's bios.

It can overclocking Pentium 20th anniversary CPU(I heard that it is possible to regulate multiple - 1 to 80).


Here are dropbox link.
I tried to upload this file but I failed. because that uploaded file is too large.

Please click -> Download link


If you have MSI B85M-E45 mother board, please check this bios.



* Flashing guide:
1. make a bootable (to DOS mode) flash drive
2. put "afude238.exe" and BIOS file (example: E7816IMS.TK1) in the same folder
3. boot to DOS
4. key in command: afude238 E7817IMS.TK1
5. when flashing process finish, shut down system and boot up again. (done)

note: I don't have afude238.exe file, so if you want to change bios, you need to find it.

I have every B85, H81, H87 and H97 BIOS for Asus and MSI that allows OCing if anybody needs them.

I'll email them on a PM basis, seems easier that way, and less likely for someone to come in with a banhammer when intel eventually outlaws it (which they will).
Yes. Intel have possibility about that..

Dang, wish I had bought up the B85 gaming MSI board if I had known they had even unlocked those boards.

I don't think the B85-G43 Gaming BIOS is in there, and the board I received today is locked which I'm not too concerned with. I'm going to see how low I can undervolt the processor and use it to run video cards for Folding@Home most likely.

MSI released an official B85-G43 Gaming BIOS version C.6 - "Improved G3258 CPU compatibility" and it says to use the BIOS + ME update feature. Well guess what...

4.2GHz/1.15v to start, not been able to stability test yet.

That B85 gaming supports only multiplier OCing right?

And any idea if it allows overclocking the i5k and i7k chips?

Son of a *****, I should have bought a couple of those when they were on sale for a free Pentium Chip (100 bucks off). Man I could have built some really good budget client builds with these chips on a Hyper 212 overclocked.

No idea if my 4770K will OC in it or not, but yeah, multiplier overclocking only on core and ring, RAM is stuck at 1333 or 1400MHz max and I don't see any BCLK option. Looks like my chip is doing well at 4.4GHz 1.2v. 4.5GHz blue screens quite fast.

Hmm interesting that the RAM doesn't go higher. I have a H87-D3H with an i5-4440 which seems to be happy running RAM at anything from 800 to 1600MHz, but I have yet to try with a G3258. Annoyingly Gigabyte doesn't offer old BIOSes...

Any chance you could give it a run with the i7?

Screw it.

Unlocked BIOS's

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7hew98jyygsmtqh/AADTuuxTQLBi4FEpB9Nxzkdza

What's the difference of your unlocked BIOS's from stock? Do they unlock OC for all CPUs?

I have an H81I-Plus with G3258, on stock 2001 BIOS I can OC multipliers. Does your BIOS unlock something else? Thanks!

He's just keeping the BIOSes so when intel makes Asus and MSi remove them from their website we can still use them.

I actually compared the checksum of the H81I-Plus BIOS from Dropbox to the official 2001, which is different. Is it modded?

It will be difficult as my AIO water cooler is low on coolant and can't be primed unless I tilt my tower onto its back (Define XL R2 is huge and it's inside the computer area of my corner desk). I may consider trying later this week, may just install my TPC-812 air cooler for now until I can modify the AIO cooler with a fill port and drain/refill with distilled water and 10-25% automotive coolant for corrosion inhibition.

Yep, I plan on picking up some 1/4" ID vinyl tubing, a 1/4" barb tee and perhaps a barbed flow control valve to stick on the end later this week when I am done with college work for a bit.

I don't have a H81I-Plus BIOS, that's probably why the checksum is different. You're comparing it to something else entirely.

H81I-PLUS =/= H81-PLUS
The difference being the "I"

I give it a month before intel tells them to knock it off (again)

Last time it was barely after a few weeks. If it doesn't happen soon, I don't think it's going to happen at all.

Oh no... LOL I'm glad I did not try to flash that.

I give it a month before intel tells them to knock it off (again)
