Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD5 BIOS Overview

[ArduinoMan101]

Does this motherboard have the ability to unlock a 960t to 6 cores?

[KingMacintosh]

Thanks! I have AMIBIOS and I'm jealous, love ASUS but I don't like American Megatrends, everything works and all but I have that empty spot in my love for my motherboard due to AMIBIOS D= just don't like AMI's layout meh

AMD FX-6100 3.30ghz

GSKILL Ripjaws 8gb 1600mhz

Asus EAH HD6950 DCII 2gb DDR5

Cooler Master RS700 psu

now im on my desktop and when i check my task manager and choosing performance section on CPU usage history just see 4 cores are shown(why not 6 cores) and after that on my desktop i right click on my computer then properties and that i have 8gb ram mounted but 3.25 usable... pls anyone help, whats the solution?? my mail 5426232@gmail.com thanx..

[denz1613]

@orhansolo is the windows os installed 32 bit or 64 bit .... if its the 32 bit edition then it can only use 4 GB of ram (approx 3.25 usable) ....

for the cores issue install a program called CPU-z and on the cpu tab of the program u will be able to see how many cores are detected ...

well if you used a hard disk from an old build u may need to reinstall the os again

no not rly PSU cant be ^^ the parts in the pc get the power they need .

so 1050 W is maybe a little bit much but i sure it isnt the psu

Hi mate, I just built my PC, using a Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3... after I plugged all the components and switch the system on, nothing came on.. no display, do you think it's from the motherboard?

My configuration is: AMD Pho II x6 1100T, 16Gb RAM corsair 1600 Mhz, Gigabyte GTX 570 SOC edition, OCZ SSD 120Gb. corsair 800D case and HX1050 corsair PSU..COULD YOU PLEASE HELP ME?

@TheWozCom

Make sure you have the 8 pin plugged on your Motherboard. You will find it next to the CPU

[Arlind86]

@TheWozCom mite be your ram

[bigmac575]

1.66 volts? ur gonna fry the thing!

[foxman105]

@bigmac575 Many RAM modules are classified for 1,65V voltage MY corsair Dominator is also made for that and its capable of taking up to 1,95V.

[AndrixGamer]

[HejsanNiclas]

[AndrixGamer]

[slipknotjake]

getting this board from my friend with his ddr3 ram. I currently have a ga-m61p-s3 and a p2 x4 945 C3 deneb @ 3ghz(non black edition. How much should I be able to OC? Getting his corsair cpu water cooler too.

[jchambers2586]

No UEFI that sucks I was hoping for UEFI like asus

[doubleatheman]

Good video, thanks.

[AndrixGamer]

was that 4.2ghz overclock stable?

i have the ud-7 and it seems to have weird things with voltage regulation even at 4.0ghz with my 1100t. were you using a 1100t? everyone seems to be having this problem with the ud-5s and 7s.
