Will the DFI RD600 be the Golden MB?

I hope! :woot:

Everyone needs some patience. We have tons of new technology out and coming out so we need to first give it a little room and testing to find out what is king of the hill. I am sure that a lot of us are too broke to go around buying a bunch of boards to test them, so let us give the people who will review these boards some time also, they want the same thing as us in the end and that is the best board out there. Do you really want to jump into the unknown on a hope and a prayer?

So can we at least know when the NDA will be lifted, or is that under NDA? :lol:

all the ship jumpers will be back when r600 crossfire kicks G80 up the ass.

A consumer or company can never be kept happy in the motherboard game, it's chicken and egg all the way.

I don't feel I've been screwed by the wait at all..If it's not worth it, then the other motherboards will still be available...

Until I see some real results from trusted friends on these new motherboards, I'm sitting back and waiting for the charlie prices to drop..

Very well said. :toast:

There is a full NDA on the product also, would love to speak more about it but we cannot at this time. I am sure news will break here first before we have a chance to put our spin on it. ;)

^ great news, thanks. :toast:

I just got my L628B E6600 tonight, my RAM is comin next week, and I am fighting the 680i hype to see what the DFI RD600 looks like.

DFI....lost another long time customer! I went out and ordered the very promising asus striker. They just took 2 long leaking any kind of info on that board whatsoever.They seem to not know the importance of timing when releasing a product(specially in a very competetive niche market).While ASUS,EVGA,ABIT etc already have theirs shipping out, DFI is happy to sit back and not respond @ all.

i just hope its not as hot as any other boards.. :d for me that is the ticket for this board to succeed.. :woot: i hope DFI is observing their competition.. If they slip a little bit.. they will loose there grounds..

waaaaa.. the waiting is killing me..

I'm not worry on whether this Mb will hit the store,, I'm more concern whether DFI will give full support (e. g., fine tune bios) after the released of this "Intel" MB .. :(

I think they will have full support for this board.. :D i think it will be a LANParty.. :)

The 680i has been impressive, ATI and DFI have their work cut out :0

Heres the latest rumor Linky

If thats true, its to bad they couldnt get it out a bit earlier, although if it does turn out to be the best chipset for the intel chips, it would be kinda funny having your competitor making a better chipset for your own chips.

It wouldnt be that surprising if it were, considering how intel controls the market with a leash.

I predict it will be like some crazed freaky frankenstein of a board, one boot it'll do 600fsb x11 stable and the next it'll be sparking and making horrible high pitched whining noises from the capicitors, filling the air with the smell of burnt ozone :flame::wierd:

I hope its not "Intel" pride..

really looking forward for this.. :)

i really hope we will get full driver support from AMD/ATI on this board.
i would hate my pc being instable just because the drivers suck c:banana: :banana: :banana:

Do you think the DFI engineers facing too much pressures due to the "extremely" high expectation of the RD600?? that why they keep tuning the bios .. :D just my thought..

who gives a :banana::banana::banana::banana: if it overclocks high if your only multiple gpu option is going to be dated crossfire. Who is going to buy a platform that is already eclipsed months before its even out. Good luck waiting another 3 or 4 months for those r600 video cards.

I believe whoever said it was allready in production, they can release bios code later. Will they ever look to revise the board version though if needed..

Nvidia has come out of nowhere and delivered the smackdown with G80 and 680i... I'm getting that very special upgrade itch in the groin... dont know how much longer I can last... anyone would think DFI and ATI were trying to release Duke Nukem Forever

Ask and yea shall receive

AMD's first Intel mobo to arrive in December

Yeah I seem to remember the same exact things being said since august. :banana::banana::banana::banana: the rumors, they haven't even had ES samples as of yet. Honestly I was waiting for this board, but now it can kiss my ass. IMHO, anyone still waiting for this board is about 2 months too late. There's much better options out NOW.

I waiting since august too, and I'm very boring of my beta motherboard(oups... motherboard) asus p5wdh :mad:

They have had ES samples out for several weeks. I can promise you this board has gone through extensive testing, several design improvement cylces, and a BIOS tuning exercise that has been incredible. It is later than originally planned but will probably hit the market before most of the "custom" 680i boards. Of course, none of this matters if it does not perform up to expectations. I think it will for the most part. ;)

Bingo13, are you allowed to tell when the NDA is up?
