I have been buying the evga classified for a few generations and I was wondering if we can get a bios that is not lacking features. Anyone else with needs please post them here. This is a list of bios features not found on my old x99 classified:

Ability to change Turbo mode parameters:



Ability to view current used voltage values:



Ability to start bios on safe mode if the overclock had a problem. 

Thanks for your time, here's to hoping something full featured. 

7920x 4.8Ghz
32GB Samsung B 4000Mhz Cas 18 18 18 38
x299 Dark
EVGA 2080ti FTW3 SLI x16 x16
1TB Samsung NVME x4
2TB Intel NVME x4

You Like ASUS ROG Bios I like EVGA Bios that simple.
I Not saying that their no room to improve on EVGA's Bios...

i would like to see the features listed in the manual be actually in the bios. would also like to see better details of what each setting actually is, either in the manual or in the bios and maybe for the compulsive tweakers have a expert mode, then they can tinker and adjust every setting under the sun.

I went from a EVGA X99 Classified to a MSI X99 Godlike Gaming Carbon. The MSI in the X99 series with the OC socket is a superior overclocker. Scores went up substantially. EVGA's UEFI has been behind the curve so far but the X299 Dark is supposed to have a new UEFI. I hope it will be a vast improvement from the past. I really like the looks of the Dark.

I absolutely hated EVGA's layout for my P55 SLI mobo. It's was worst and the Bios were a PAIN.

Overclocking on my ASUS Maximus VII Hero. is literally two steps and done...

I thought on iPhone.
Off course I didn't think on computers where 2000$ worth PC beat 4000$ worth Apple.
iPhone is not slow, iPhone is always fastest on launch date and few months after that.

My wife has the latest IPhone and my Galaxy blows it away! The Galaxy is more user friendly and it's much faster. You know Samsung is now the largest tech company in the world! Apple is using parts from Samsung to build the IPhone.

"You Like ASUS ROG Bios I like EVGA Bios that simple." I am asking for value changing features that do not exist, it has nothing to do with "like" and other forms of fanboyism. I would rather not have 8 voltage readers plugged into my motherboard like kingpin because my evga bios is too stupid to display the value. I pay to use EVGA "classified" motherboards, kinping GETS paid to use those motherboards.

EVGA can always have a classic bios with all the lack of features for you and an advanced tab for real overclocking.

Maybe if you have Galaxy 8. 
iPhone 7 have better and faster processor than S7.
Single and Multi Core, video editing far better even than 
iPhone 7 finish video editing of 4K video to 720p for 1:30 and S8 need more than 8 minutes.
In fps S8 is just little better, Wi-Fi little better, but because it's never phone.
7s will be better don't even to talk about iPhone 8.

Ok so I purchased the EVGA Dark. It has not safe mode so you have to clear the bios non stop during overclocking sessions and yes still missing all the same stuff than last time. This is so sad I am trying to get to top 50 on HOF but no safe mode makes me lose hours.

Comparing EVGA to Apple. Ugh! Poor EVGA.

I understand now. You are all happy with your low scores so you don't need better. If you are not an overclocker this is obviously a non issue for you.

Edit:
It takes many hours to overclock cpu and memory properly. All the extra steps like turning off the PC and resetting the bios you make 2 hours into 3 and so on. I think bettering a product is more important than blindly cheering.

Posting Guidelines 
 
Members are free to post any topic on the forums, provided it is not prohibited by the TOS.  All topics must be placed in the correct section, or a Moderator may move the thread to the appropriate area without warning.  All information regarding hardware and software news should be posted to the Hardware/Software News section - link.  All hardware questions that do not fit in the other categories belong in the General Hardware section - link - while all software questions that do not fit in the other categories belong in the General Software section -  link.  All other topics that are not covered by an existing section should go in the General Discussion section - link.  If you accidentally post in the wrong section, please PM a Moderator or create a ticket so that a Moderator can move the thread to the correct section. 
 
When making a post, please use common courtesy.  Do not post in all Caps, as this is "Shouting," and is considered rude.  Moreover, do not hijack a member's thread by creating an off-topic post by asking for help with your own issue in another's thread, even if you have a similar issue.  Create your own thread and topic for your issue, and you will receive help from the EVGA Community.  Likewise, once you've created your thread, do not "Bump" your thread by creating successive posts to keep it at the top of the post list.  Your thread will be answered in due time, and continually bumping your thread will earn a warning.  Furthermore, do not make off-topic posts, such as “in before lock,” or other comments suggesting a thread or member requires moderation (except as defined in the EVGA Marketplace rules for the Marketplace section).  Such off-topic posts serve only to derail a topic.  If you feel such a post/thread requires moderation, please PM/email a moderator or report the post without communicating this in the thread.

I understand now. You are all happy with your low scores so you don't need better. If you are not an overclocker this is obviously a non issue for you.

Edit:
It takes many hours to overclock cpu and memory properly. All the extra steps like turning off the PC and resetting the bios you make 2 hours into 3 and so on. I think bettering a product is more important than blindly cheering. 


That is not my Score but OK.
