I have a GA-H61M-S2PV (rev. 2.0), and I'm currently interested on checking and unlocking the RAM speed (mhz) settings.
According to Gigabyte this MB only supports 1333mhz maximum, and the specs only talk about support for XMP profiles for rev 2.1 and 2.2 (only for Ivy Bridge).
I know this is false (probably), because of this video: https://youtu.be/8FH5z44zedM?t=1m23s (min 1:23) What we see is an ivy Bridge 3770k on a Rev 2.0 with the first Bios update FD, supporting XMP profiles, and being able to select up to 3000mhz for ram speed.
This probably is because the FD Updates are: 1 - Update CPU microcode ( Ivy Bridge). 2 - Enhanced DRAM OC ability.
I know the Sandy Bridge limitation is true. Because I have an i3-2120 and I don't have XMP profile options an RAM speed locked to 1333 max. I know this is looked for Sandy Bridge K series too, as they say here http://www.pcaxe.com/hardver/maticne-plo...m-s2pv/strana-8
What I want to know is, will the Ram speed will be unlocked with an Ivy bridge non-k? Because I plan to buy an i5-3570S. I didn't find any user online with this setup yet so I want to find out disassembling the BIOS. And possible try to mod it to unlock the RAM speed if it’s not unlocked for non-k series.
I have the MMTool.exe, and I can see the "internals" off the BIOS. But I have no clue, of how I can see for what CPU's the RAM mhz is unlocked.
