April 26, 201214 yr Author Oh? Thanks for the explanation... I figured I was safe when I got the B3 revision... apparently they never fixed it... *sigh* Well good to know for my next board... speaking of that lol... What about this board? http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_1155/SABERTOOTH_Z77/#specifications It's got a ASMedia® ASM1061 controller | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
April 26, 201214 yr Are you overclocking? That seems to kick off the cold boot/double boot problem. Hello Running @ 4.5ghz. I have always suspected that the PSU is part of this issue, specifically how quickly the 12V rails are brought into play and the Caps are brought up to charge. The double boot seems to be the board precharging the Caps and not allowing the post to continue until sufficient charge is present in the phases supplying the CPU socket. Overclocking just makes this more likely due to the increased demand placed on the phases supplying the CPU. It would be interesting to look at the response times of various PSU's on the 12V rails taking into account differences in single rail designs and multiple 12v rails.
April 26, 201214 yr not a single on my board, best set-up I have ever owned...the gigabyte ud5 b3 had a few, but improved with better bios' Simon
April 26, 201214 yr What about this board? http://www.asus.com/...#specifications I love the Sabertooth boards. Especially now that they come with fans for the TUF. It is just too bad they didn't make Z68 boards but if mine fails I will get the Z77 Saber. It got a silver from HardOCP but that is primarily due to the Z77 boards not really offering much over Z68 boards which are less.

April 26, 201214 yr Hello Asus Sabertooth P67 here, never double boots Strange. My Z77 Sabertooth double boots occasionally whereas my P67 Deluxe never did. Regards Howard H D Isaacs
April 27, 201214 yr To answer the OP question.... What boards don't have boot loop issues? The ones who are not overclocked...... :Batting Eyelashes:
April 27, 201214 yr To answer the OP question.... What boards don't have boot loop issues? The ones who are not overclocked...... :Batting Eyelashes: Not true. My P8P67 B3 had the issue from the very beginning, so obviously not overclocked. Anyway, I think we can conclude that quite a few boards are affected (hundreds of pages of discussion on different forums) but not all.

April 27, 201214 yr The only time i get mine double booting is when its quite cold or haven't used for a few days. This a a GA-Z68XUD3P. Both optimists and pessimists contribute to our society. The optimist invents the airplane and the pessimist the parachute. ~Gil Stern
