CG8480 - P8Z77-M-Pro has no CPU Core Settings in Bios

[Sabo87]

Hi,

i own the CG8480-DE002S System.
As i found in the internet the Board is a P8Z77-M-Pro.
CPU is a i7-3770k
Bios Version (latest): 0501 (for CG8480)

Theres no option to change the cpu core manually.
Only modes for 3,8 - 4,0 and 4,2 ghz. But i want to change it by myself
because the core if fixed to 35. In other OS except of windows the Turbo Mode
of my i7-3770k isnt available. Its stuck to 3,5 ghz.

Anybody an idea how to fix it? Maybe with other compatible Bios versions?
The Bios for the P8Z77-M-Pro doesnt work. It says incompatible :rolleyes:

I wonder if that is because your system is a pre-built system. I am not familiar with any of the pre built systems.

If you want to OC you can update your bios to a version that will allow OCing, that must be possible on your board. Go over to the main menu and see which bios your system is using.

Currently im using the latest Bios 0501. Its imho a special version for this prebuild system.
The problem is that i cant install the official Bios for this board.
When i try, it says not compatible to this board.

As I thought sorry my friend you will have to use AISuiteIII to overclock in that case.

Why would there be a Mac version of AI Suite? It is against Apple's EULA to install OS X on any system other than an Apple branded machine.

Yes there is, can you confirm that you have been using a fat formatted USB stick.

Please use CPUz to determine just what motherboard you are using

@HiVizMan:
Find the screenshot attached. I think you need some more informations.
As i found in the internet it should be a P8Z77-M-Pro.
