Updated from f5 to f7 bios on a Sniper 3 board.  Fixed the usb logitech keyboard problem I was having.  Also noticed my idle temps on my 3770k went up 10c.  Anyone else have this.  Also where can I find release notes for the f7 bios?  Thankyou

Thanks, ex58, i tried the f8 bios on the z77x up4 th, it has more thunderbolt options but needs a tiny bit more juice to reach stable 4.8GHz on the cpu.
I had the f8 bios running all day yesterday and overall the f7 seems better for me, even in gaming, i guess the extra heat produced from the upped voltage was causing issues, or perhaps it was due to thunderbolt having some dedicated ram? - an option not present in f7.
All the same i'm very happy with f7, i get my gen3 GPU sent today (a 4gb 680, i was so close to getting the gigabyte SOC but wanted the extra vram).
Looking forwards to running full gen3 system. Thanks again, Gigabyte. : )

Please let us know how you get on and what extra performance you squeeze out of it.

Hello, DM, well yeah it's been a few days now and no probs at all.
I had to set PWM phase control in the bios to 'balanced' instead of the default 'auto' so my games wouldn't crash.
Now i got a very nice cpu OC and my gpu is running gen3 x16 gaming is a complete joy again, i get 56fps average in the arkham city benchmark with all the important stuff maxed like PhysX and detail level, before i was getting around 52fps average.
One thing i noticed is that my minimum frames are nowheres near as low as they were with my old gen2 system (z68, 2500k, gtx580).

My z77x up4 th mobo has tied all this new hardware together nicely and i couldn't be happier with it. : )

Yeah i had no doubts when getting the up4 mobo that it was one of the best, don't get me wrong i don't mean to brag, i'm sure you're all aware over there too just how freaking awesome the new Ultra Durable5 boards are.
