Maybe we should have a DFI sticky with the best bios and tweaks because i see people asking the same questions over and over and right now i would like some info :D maybe the best of the best could post what bios and what settings they use in bios :D

I second that, I'm still finding my way with my board, but I'm willing to contribute anything I can.

Best BIOS (IMO) is 2/17 Alpha
Get BIOS' at http://dfi-street.com/bios.html
Settings? Check out the info on Lastviking's screenshot at http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?postid=395241#post395241 - that gets you memory settings for all BIOS' including the 2/17. If you consider he's getting 98% Sandra efficiency out of tha memory those are some pretty tight timings.
What other settings would you all like to see?

Im still with the original 11-27 but pretty happy with the board so far. My IQYHA mobile Barton at 2535=11x230 is running fine at 1.75 . This boards got potential though more picky then others.

saaya - dfi-street isn't organized the way I'd do it but as you found out the good stuff is there if you look around :)
the 1/31 SIP-based alpha is the better of the two.
Also what kind of settings in the bios di you enable for high FSBs i remember the NF7 had something called "Stable FSB parameters" or something like that..

Dajo - there aren't any "Stable" equivalents, only Optimized and Fail-Safe defaults.

IIRC, it fried his mx4xx video card, and it didn't want to boot even before that - right out of the box.
