Is there eny information of DFI RD600 MB?
Carefull, most of the other RD600 threads were, locked/closed.....
Seems to be a "ask no questions/tell no lies" thing....
I hope i'm wrong...:stick:
the other thread was locked because of some trolls. Mainly just flaming.
Gary Key of anandtech was answering a bunch of questions about it. Well as much as he could with the NDA. The BIOS is supposed to be finalizing now or very soon. So I guess a week or two for the major sites to start to preview the DFI RD600. Retail probably quickly after that. Atleast they are taking their time with the BIOS and not putting out a crap product. The expectations are extremely high for this board.

One of the mods was being constantly embarrassed because he couldn't permanently ban offenders
not to carry on with this thread but, although this is 100% speculation.
no one, outside of 1 guy here has had any info or seen any of the RD600 boards. (and gary too, that man has all kinds of info)
i have a feeling its 1 of 2 things
1)
ATI/AMD is having a hell of a time with the intel version of the RD600 and thus is not releasing any info. i mean lets be serious, when was the last time you read A N Y T H I N G official on the Intel RD600 chipset. ???
when was it ? this past summer? maybe prior to summer ?
now a few weeks ago there was some word form the industry on the AMD version of the RD600, it went by a different name but it seemed to be more official.
no one, and i mean no ne has any true legitimate information on this chipset.
2)
The NDA on the RD600 is tighter than,, well you know what, and anyone caught talking about or releasing information on the Intel version of the RD600 is subject to some very bad reprocussions.
i for one think its both, but possibly more so the first. if it was going to be a success, then they would be talking.
also, since AMD took over they very well may just have closed the door on creating an intel based RD600 chipset.
who knows.
There is not much to tell, DFI are finalizing the bios and waiting for the NB cooler and then the boards are good to go i hear.
There have been delays yes...I still think we will see it this month though.
I will find out more next week.

Talking bout them rumours :) Man i just wish they released a little bit of info. Im not good @ waiting and have 250 euros itching in my wallet for a motherboard.Bought the evga 680i and returned it 2 days after that, and now motherboardless :( only a laptop to browse. Come on DFI throw me a bone, and ill hold out on my purchase. :slap:
I wonder what cooling is going to be used? :confused: I hope it's not include a fan. :stick:
:D Haha - more like "don't ask for the truth"..............:nono:Quote:

It's probably best that they take their time (within reason) to get everything right and release a mobo that has no/few glitches and problems instead of rushing it to the market. I remember how I waited for the Asus A8N32-SLi only to get a half finished product in my hands. The A8N-Sli Premium is in many ways still the better board so it was a wast of time and I really got nothing for it but many sleepless nights. :(
I hope that this wait isn't a waste also. Many rumours are positive so I hope this wait will have a happy ending. :toast:
Sounds to me like this isnt going to be widescale retail till next year, maybe I can buy it at the same time as an e4300.
I dont expect it to be any better then 680i just cheaper hopefully
From that thread

December 30th lol :/ yucky
Is this board still going to have that crapy northbridge heatsink fixture?
Cheap and cheerfull is probably best, let people who want to spend more customise it. Would a heatpipe actually help overclock it more?
:rolleyes: Chances are as hi as ELVIS is still alive.............. :slapass:Quote:
