Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Since updating the bios to F7e which updates the ME firmware on the chipset, I no longer have cold boot issues and haven't for sometime.
My issue is fixed :)
UPDATE !!!!!!!!!
No cold boot in two days even when not having the system on for hours and the only thing i've done according to someone elses advice is
PLL OVERVOLTAGE = DISABLED
If this is the cause, why does enabling pll over voltage cause cold boots?
Thanks Falkentyne!
Also I'd like to put this across
There is certainly something up with the batch and looking at the gigabyte forums it isn't just related to the UD3P. Seems like a Gigabyte issue in general

Do a search for COLD BOOT...
Had a reply from Gigabyte support
They are not listening at all, I've got people on other forums saying that the F7C doesn't solve the cold boot issue, sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesn't. I could boot later and be stuck on the cold boot issue. So far they've released F7A, F7B and...
lol They said that the F7A would fix the cold boot, boot loop it doesnt, they said F7B would it doesn't now it's F7C and guess what. That bios is even worse! I know how to flash and I know how to do it correctly, the current beta bios releases are CRAP.
and no it doesn't solve it, there are...
F7C is the worst bios i've ever used to get it working right with boot loops and a cold boot issue. The Bios still sets the VTT too low when set to AUTO and using xmp Profile 1, the vtt volts don't increase and have to be manually set. But with Bios F7C I had trouble even getting that far!
