MA790GP-UD4H BIOS Help
« on: June 06, 2010, 10:45:34 am »
Hi, I just installed the latest update F6 from the Gigabyte site. I bought the motherboard on april 29th, 2009 and the first update F2 was released on April 30th, 2009. The reason I need help is because, I need to find the original non-updated BIOS that originally came with the board. I am trying to Overclock my CPU, and I have tried every single BIOS update on the site but before i updated the BIOS my Northbridge frequency could go up to like x16 and my HT Link could go up to 2200Mhz I believe and now I get maxed out at x9 for Northbridge and 1800 for HT Link. I want these features back! Why would Gigabyte not keep these included on the new BIOS updates? If someone can please help me I really would appreciate it, Thank you, either by getting me a download to the original BIOS or telling me how to unlock those features that were originally there with the newer updates ty.

edit: I was reading on another site that for some reason as of F2 update Gigabyte locked a bunch of stuff, so I need the F1 BIOS, if someone could link that for me I would be very grateful, thank you.
