That 3.3V-5V option: Is it news tot the NF4-board of DFI or do they also provide it on the NF3?
DFI rules once more, the quickest response from mobo manufacturer I have ever experienced in my life.Quote:

peace perc,
This works in the same was as the booster does it not in terms of using the 5v rail? The booster most definately needs cooling so I see no reason why that corner of the board wouldn't either. Wondering. Would a booster be better as it supposedly provides cleaner power or is this essentially a booster built in the board so to say?
The higher the voltage the less that has to be thrown away meaning wouldn't higher voltage not be as hot running? 5-3.6 = 1.4 as opposed to 5-3 = 2?
Is it ok to run OCZ ddr booster with this board if i dont want to use 5V jumper? :)
What is max safe voltage to run OCZ ddr booster with 3V jumper ? :)
I don't think Tony officially tested and made mention of the booster being tested on this board. Perhaps with it setup the way it is with the choice of 3/5v the booster may not even work at all being added to the incompatibility list. Good thing I didn't go out and buy one till I hear an official answer.
quick question for bigtoe,
what's the clearance underneath the x850xtpe to the board. from your pictures i can see that it barely clears the dfi chipset fan. i'm thinking of watercooling the chipset and was wondering 2 things.
1. do you think it's necessary to wc the chipset in a 24/7 overclocked setup inside a case?
2. will any current waterblocks fit? i'm considering a slimline fusionSL which is 19mm tall, or a polarflo waterblock which has a 360 degree rotation of the barbs. the a dd maze4 chipset waterblock doesn't look like it it will fit from the pics i've seen.
Might seem a strange question but does anyone know the maximum amps you can connect to the cpu fan header?
My fan draws 2 amps which is too much for a lot of motherboards. Ive looked in the manual and it doesn't say. The asus sli allowed 2 amps max but that seemed a bit to close for me so i opted to use a thermaltake fan controller which is mounted in a pci slot.
Its really annoying to have to reach round the back of the computer to change the fan speed. Never found a rheobus which could take 24w.
could you please test that 4400gold ? or did you already?Quote:

Opp, where can I get the BIOS?
You would have to PM me your e-mail addy.Quote:

With 2gigs you would get 4-way

The system board is equipped with an onboard S/PDIF-in RCA jack

CN7 respectively.
The S/PDIF connector at location J3 is used to connect to
optical S/PDIF ports. The S/PDIF ports may be mounted on a cardedge
bracket. Install the card-edge bracket to the system chassis
then connect the audio cable connector to J3. Make sure pin 1 of
the audio cable connector is aligned with pin 1 of J3.
DO NOT use RCA S/PDIF and optical S/PDIF at the same time.
isnt that depending on how many banks you have?
2x single sided is 2 way and 4 way is for 2x DS
Hmmm. I always thought that if the modules were double-sided, you can enable 4-Way Bank Interleave with 2 modules so long as the BIOS had provisions for it. Maybe I'm wrong. :confused:Quote:

Eric, what would 4x 256MB give me? Would that give any possibilities with interleaving? Thanks m8.Quote:

2xSingle sided in DC is one bank for MCH, 2x double sided (4 physical) is 2 in DC for ΜCH ;)Quote:

Any of the lucky people who have this board like to get their ruler out? ;)
