Honestly it didnt change anything as far as overclocking no new voltages or settings were added aside from the ROM update.

Hey guys,
We are still working on this. We have tried several ways to implement this, but still no solution at the moment.
We are working directly with Award on a solution.
-Jacob
What about the other issues except the VT you mentioned before? Also what's the status with charging iPads? Other motherboard manufacturers provided update to be able to charge iPads through it's motherboard USBs. Thanks, Luis P.S. I'm sure Award will be a lot of help to you guys so I'm glad to hear you guys reached out to them. Also like someone said look into Gigabyte board because it seems like they fixed it.

you see it's just that I've flashed most previous bioses and found they weren't good for 920 d0 oc.

4. Speedstep : downclock CPU Mhz is OK but CPU vCore doesn't change. Looking into this.
Example EVGA Classified 3 (EVGA E770) BCLK 133 - CPU vCore Standard (Core i7 920) Speedstep : downclock CPU Mhz --- OK CPU vCore - 0.9x--- OK BCLK 200 - CPU vCore 1.35 (Core i7 920) - (and all other BCLK overclocking via standard BCLK 133) Speedstep : downclock CPU Mhz --- OK CPU vCore - doesn't work (1.35v to 0.9x) (with my SLi Micro and FTW3 it worked, the CPU vCore down clocks (1.35v to 0.9x) with SPEEDSTEP)

Geez, why waste you time and effort to bash EVGA. If you find something better simply go buy it and begone. Coming here and rubbing it in the room's face is just bad taste. For EVGA to still support a 2 yr old motherboards with bios update is unheard of. You "Bashers" need to remember that fact.

1. X58 will not be EOL at least till the end of this year. 2. E770 is not even 6 months old. 3. Some Core 2 boards have already got some of the updates we are waiting for. 4. The RAID ROM we use is 2 years old, not 2 months old.

OK
Over a week has passed from the infamous EVGA reply to our questions with all questions being answered "We are looking into this" and still no updates
Im going to give EVGA another week for some updates and then im off.
Im getting fed up with this. Its coming upto 4 months since the last bios update (not including the last update which was useless) and we still have issues with this board.
The Marvell Sata 3 controller in raid is a joke.
The Intel firmware is soo soo out of date
And all the other problems to add
Jacob said he would update us on the progress so judging by the lack of updates i can only assume that there are no updates to be shared on the progress of the next bios.
I sent my last message to most of the EVGA people that matter (Marketing, sales, tech support) and only got 1 reply from Jacob saying "we are working on it" AND "we will keep you all updated"
Well keep us updated please
1 more week and im out of here and will make the very very poor first time EVGA experience known on the internet and will never recommend EVGA again
Im off to get drunk
Rant over and good night

That's simply a band-aid for his claims of 'updates' not a TRUE update. the fact that you are throwing that one back at us as a round in the chamber for Evga's guns is simply and utterly hilarious. Evga has always been my first choice and if a product I need is made by them I will always get it. But in recent months I'm coming to learn that maybe they aren't always right for the job. I got 2 PNY 570's from my job for cheap and they work well...not as good some of Evga's I'm sure...but they work fine in SLi. If Evga doesn't clean up their act I will look elsewhere in the future as I'm sick of having to wait for this hot mess of a prom date to show up after I've already graduated.  Please don't take this as an insult or me being hostile Heavy, you're a stand up member here who I really respect, but EVGA seems to be asleep at the wheel here and not doing all they can for their loyal customer base. And I too find it ridiculous that only Jacob had and has had the stones to stick around and keep up 'up to date' where are the other tech's and EVA support staff? I DEMAND to have my product's issues addressed! We paid for EVGA's product.... Now make it work as it should have from the start or you can kiss my customer loyalty good bye.
