I just upgraded my ga-z68mx-ud2h to the new UEFI bios, and the system will not POST when my display is connected via displayport. Instead the system will constantly power cycle every 1 second or so (without any POST beep codes). If I disconnect the displayport connection, the monitor will POST, and I can reconnect the displayport connection and use it immediately thereafter.
I need to be able to use displayport with my monitor, hp zr2740w, as that is the only connection which supports the native resolution of the display (2560x1400, and the hp display is unable to scale from lower resolutions such as 1920x1200).
Additionally I'm not able to enter the UEFI BIOS menu screen with the hp zr2740w monitor. Apparently the UEFI BIOS screen does not support any resolutions that my monitor allows (2560x1400 or 1280x720). I can only access the BIOS menu by attaching a different monitor that supports other resolutions.
I asked gigabyte about these issues and they said
"Sorry for the inconvenience, please try to remove CMOS battery for 10-15Min, if that doesn't help, consider going back to the previous Bios and wait for the full version of UEFI Bios to be released."
Yet the u1c bios for this motherboard is on the main US web site for download, not listed as beta. Also gigabyte doesn't offer a rollback solution.
I'm aware of the BACK_2_AWARD solution, so I guess I need to try that. From a DOS boot disk it looks like I'd just type fpt.exe -f flash-filename
But I've read that fpt.exe -f will will wipe my MAC address, motherboard id, serial, etc, so perhaps there is no safe rollback procedure?
F12A beta bios/uefi for g1 assassin 2 is working nice, got my g510 keybosrd back in bios, and fresco usb3.0 controllers now show in bios, all in all, very good so far, if someone from gigabyte is reading this then please dont go breaking something, my desktop even feels quicker, probably isnt, but thats how it feels.

Did you test that it really works? Should be trivial for GB to add if so.
Yes, it works with ET 6 v12.06.26
If you click SET, the selectioned LLC level is applied and working under stress.
The problem is that (when loaded at boot) delays a lot the boot itself and doesn't apply the last selected setting as it should.
Have tested the new uefi-BIOS u1g for the Z68XP-UD3, but i have really troubles with it!
99% of the time i start the computer - there is just blankscreen and nothing happens - i have to restart it 2-5 times or clearcmos to start it normally - than it works fine but the issue happens also next time i just shut down the computer and try to start it again! i changed every component and BIOS-setting but could not solve the Problem - with the Z68AP-D3 it works fine with the new uefi bios.
tested components:
I7 3770K
Kingston 1600mhz Hyper X
Bequiet power supply 700W and 730W, Raptoxx 600W
please tell me if there is any solution - also if you have a solution to reflash the uefi bios to the legacy one - with F10 it worked fine!
sorry for my awful english :D
I can finally use safemode now, before I would get bsod related to USB, but now with g1 assassin2 f12a bios, safemode recognises my USB devices ,I think its because gigabyte have added the fresco usb3.0 controllers into uefi/bios , wup wup, I'm happy.
To flash UEFI BIOS back to AWARD see page 613 (post #6122).
Per my last post, I'm aware of the BACK_2_AWARD solution, but noted, the procedure seems to not be safe. "fpt.exe -f will will wipe my MAC address, motherboard id, serial, etc, "
I'm getting a copy of efi2awd from gigabyte which should be safer.
