Hi everyone.
 
I wanted to find out if anyone can help me with a XOC Bios that are compatible with the 10980xe processor? The two XOC Bioses on the xdevs site gives the df error when flashed to any of the 3 Bios chips. I have seen a XOC Bios on youtube that are running with this chip. Any help in this regard will be greatly appreciated.
 
Regards

    CPU Compatibility
     
    Core i9 10980XE BIOS 1.19** and newer.
     
    "**Cascade Lake-X CPUs can boot into the BIOS with older BIOS versions, but will not function properly until updated to at least version 1.19"
     
     BIOS 1.23 is the latest as of now.
     
    It seems those BIOS versions at xDevs may not be updated for Cascade Lake-X CPUs..I would not use them anyway, they're not patched for security issues and are provided AS IS with no official warranty or support.

    Hi
    Thanks for replying. I only want the BIOS without the security issues for benchmarking purposes. You can see a clear difference in cinebench scores between normal BIOS and the XOC Bios. The security patches I suspect does lower perfromance. Will try and first updated with the V1.19 and see after that if the older BIOS will take.
     
    Will definitely not run the system daily with XOC Bios due to security threats.
     
    Thank you for replying

    Yeah, update to BIOS 1.23 if needed.
     
    Intel has their own overclocking/stress testing utilities.

    You can try the Intel Performance Maximizer for Intel Core X-series Processors that dynamically or statically makes BIOS changes and see how it rolls, along with the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility and the Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool too..There's system monitoring and stress tests included.
     
    Just a small handful of cool tools from Intel there you might like.

    To anyone intrested about the XOC Bios for 10980xe on x299 Dark. I discovered that the BIOS only works with 10980xe processor. Anyone from EVGA maybe know how I can obtain it or should I post in the overclocking lab forum?
