The blurb on the website says:F12 2003/8/8 Add ITE8212 ATA mode support Adjust CPU terperature monitoring tolerence Add easytune4 support I can now open and start easytune will all the info showing so thats good. I,m not an overclocker so I,ll leave it to the more experienced to report on the functionality. My system still won't recognise the four dimms as per my previous comments on the F11 bios, it will only recognize 2 DIMMs and run in single mode. But anyway it seems to be an improvement so far with the Easytune. I have returned to 3 slots of Kingston 512 ram and it runs happy in dual mode. Looking forward to hearing comments from the more technicly experienced users.... Cheers.

One thing I noticed, with the new BIOS the CPU temperatures reported are way higher than before. Is it the same with the new BIOS for the NNXP? -------------------- XP2500DKV4D | GA-7N400Pro 11X200 Vcore:+5% | 2 x Corsair CMX-256A3200C2 at 2/3/3/6 with Dual Channel Enabled Posts: 45 | From: Germany | Registered: Jun 2003 ZED New Member Member # 125 posted                    Not sure - I was unable to open easytune with the F11 or F10 Bios previously and hadn't been too concerned by the temps back af ew months ago when I last checked under the F9 bios. So sorry can't answer that, FYI my current temps are: system 30'c, CPU A 48'c. Posts: 13 | From: Melbourne Australia | Registered: Jun 2003 Markus New Member Member # 100 posted                    Hmm, my system temperature is around 40°C and my CPU temperature jumped from around 40°C to way over 60°C with the new BIOS. Really strange... -------------------- XP2500DKV4D | GA-7N400Pro 11X200 Vcore:+5% | 2 x Corsair CMX-256A3200C2 at 2/3/3/6 with Dual Channel Enabled Posts: 45 | From: Germany | Registered: Jun 2003 Vidman New Member Member # 97 posted                    I've experienced the same thing as you with the temperature that is now reported. It now reads 59c. I have read in other forums that others are experiencing the same thing. One thing I did notice is that the F-12 Bios slightly raised the CPU voltage. On mine it was up to 1.72. I lowered it back to 1.65 where it should be for my CPU and that lowered the temps only 2 degrees C. -------------------- AMD XP2700+ | Gigabyte GA7NNXP 200 FSB 11X | F15 Bios | 500w Powmax PSU | AGP 8X | 2x512mb PC3200 Corsair | Nvidia Soundstorm optical to Logitech Z680's | ATI Radeon 9700 Pro Rev 1.3 Cat 3.7's | Win XP Pro | Toshiba DVD 16/48X | PlexWriter 24/10/40A Posts: 20 | From: NJ | Registered: Jun 2003 Markus New Member Member # 100 posted                    Apparently they did some adjustements to the temperature calculation. I always suspected that CPU temp reported lower than system temp is not really true. But I really hope that it now reports too much! Didn't check the voltage setting for the CPU. Will do and report back this evening. -------------------- XP2500DKV4D | GA-7N400Pro 11X200 Vcore:+5% | 2 x Corsair CMX-256A3200C2 at 2/3/3/6 with Dual Channel Enabled Posts: 45 | From: Germany | Registered: Jun 2003
