[request]bios for GA-EP45-DS3 to support xeon e5430

[borko3fkovix]

Hey guys, i've ordered this GA-EP45-DS3 motherboard and before it comes in i wanna be ready to install my xeon in it. I dont know if it requires the microcode as well, the motherboard that i have right now i had a buddy help me and he said that he didnt need the microcode or that he didnt need to mod bios, but i forgot which one was it. He has moved out since then and we have no contact so i cant ask him.
Now i found this website, would it be enough to download from it, or is it outdated, or just wrong or something. http://tanieprocesory.pl/en/bios2-2/
Official bios is here http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product...id=2843#dl
Thanks

disable c1e, c2e and c-state support in the bios
you can also precut the cpu so you don t have to cut the socket markers
