Gigabyte GA-X79-UP4 BIOS SETUP HELP

[gmvideo]

Greetings to all forum
I apologize for my bad English, I hope you understand me
We describe the configuration of the PC:
Motherboard Gigabyte GA-X79-UP4 rev. 1.1
I7-4820K CPU, 3.7 GHz, 10MB Cache, LGA 2011 130W
CPU Cooler Corsair Hydro H 60
Power Supply Enermax MODU 87 +
RAM Corsair DOMINATOR-GT 12GB (I know I'm not the ideal for this motherboard)
5 Hardisk WD Caviar Black
S.O. Win 7 - 64bit Ultimate

I ask for your help in configuring the bios, to increase the performance by the current default configuration.
I work in video editing, and are not satisfied with the current performance.
With the previous motherboard, with a less powerful CPU I had a video rendering more 'faster than the current one.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation

One thing that would help speed it up is a SSD hard drive. Other thing is the memory how many sticks?

You can run up to 2133-mhz memory with just setting the speed. Plus one thing you didn't put in your spec was the video card.

What are the speed of the hard drive Sata-2 or Sata-3? Are they in the Intel ports or Marvell ports.

The reason I ask about the memory is because this is a Quad channel memory board.

If you don't have the memory set in the right slots you could be running in dual channel.

thanks for the reply.
You're right, I forgot to specify that the disks are SATA 3
inserted into the appropriate ports for SATA-3
I know that this motherboard is a quad channel, in fact I specified before the RAM (12 GB memory how many sticks 3), they were not the right ones to her, are included as a manual for the Dual Channel, I thought, however, that with the triple channel 2000 Mhz she would do just as well.
The video card is an nVidia GeForce GTX 480, also known a long latency response in the reminder of the Hardisk, it is possible to reduce this latency?
So from what I read there is little to do, we need to change the RAM to get the right performance?
thanks

One thing I do is shut off as much stuff as I can. Right click on my computer / Properties / advanced system settings / performance / settings / adjust for best performance.

Yes it will change the desktop but you can change it back. Plus I use msconfig / startup and stuff in there turn off too.

I use msconfig, but that was not my question, I mean latency using 6 hardisk, 1 system, the other 5 storage, these 5 are the ones who lose when editing time to take action.

Ok the thing is that where you have the drives connected too. On this board you have 6 Intel and 4 Marvell ports.

I myself would if these are all Sata 3 drives. I would run the OS and one other drive on the 2 Intel Sata-3 ports.

The other 4 on the Marvell G-sata ports. I would run them with the AHCI controller on both Intel and Marvell ports.

That way everything is running at Sata-3 / 6gb. If you are running them on the Intel sata 2 ports you will lose performance.

I run a SSD on the Intel sata 3 port and two WD Raptor 10,000 rpm  600gb on the Marvell. I use those drives for gaming on windows 7 & 8.

ok, thank you for the clarification, although this information I had already read the manual, I thought there was some special setup to be able to do in the bios to increase performance with the current configuration described in the initial post.
One last question, what RAM Brand and model certificates advice me to get the best performance on this motherboard?
Thank you and Happy New Year to you and your family throughout this forum

What you are looking for in the bios. What they are talking about is going from IDE to AHCI.

I have run Kingston & G-Skill on this board. I'm running the G-skill at this time.

G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2133 (PC3 17000) "This one, two sets of these"

G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900)

Kingston HyperX 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2133

Kingston HyperX 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866

Happy New Year to you and your family too

In the bios is set to AHCI
Among those listed in the RAM yourself, what do you recommend?

[dmdilks]

I would use the top one that is what I'm using. Like I said I have two sets of those. So I got 8 sticks of 32gb of memory.

Just go in set the speed and that is it. You could try the profile. But when I use the profile I get BSOD.

[gmvideo]

have you ever tried the Corsair RAM on this motherboard?

[dmdilks]

Did some testing for you and the one that I didn't have was the Corsair. But I did do all these brands.

 Xigmatek, Kingston, G-Skill, OCZ, Crucial, Mushkin & Visiontek. So if they all work Corsair should work.

Plus the X79 I was doing the testing on. I have a problem with it. Didn't know it till I start check memory.

The #1 slots doesn't work. Already did a RMA on it and waiting for a RMA # to ship it to them to get it fix.

My previous board was the same as yours. Corsair Dominator GT 2133Mhz 16GB works very very well,no blue screens of death BUT if you run them at rated speed you will need to increase Vram to 1.6V and enable XMP. You will need to use 4 sticks to get Quad channel configuration.
