That's why the launch hasn't come already. It's a hardware fix for "smoother performance" and a bios update according to what DFI (incl. Vivian) told me. I recieved a email from DFI yesterday saying the shipment was delayed 1 week.Quote:

I just got done messing with multiple MSI Neo2 Plat boards (had a few replacements) that I ordered a while ago because I got impatient waiting for this board and finally gave up on them. There's FAR too many problems with them. Each one seemed to have it's own quirks. I've never been so frustrated working with a MB before.
That MB required a CMOS clear when choosing incorrect/incompatible settings and it was a HUGE pain. Asus boards I've had in the past have a nice feature that automatically rolls back the settings on reboot if the prior boot locked up.
Please tell me this board has a similar feature, especially with all the settings present in the BIOS. I've never worked with a DFI board before so I'm not familiar with how their boards normally work.
There is a jumper on the board that is supose to do that, it won't clear Cmos, it will leave your settings.Quote:

Thanks! While that's not exactly what I was hoping for, it's still much better than the hell MSI puts you through.
:toast:
Grats on the great scores BTW. I'm tempted to return the Patriot 3200 XBL stuff I just received and go OCZ VX instead. I'm not sure if the minor performance difference I may gain is worth the $45 difference though (including shipping to return and on the new order - I know someone would have corrected me to $30 if I hadn't explained ;) )

But want to get the chipset under water like I did with my NEO2, what about the SLI slot and the card - will it fit or not?
I mean there are the tubes from and to the cooler and I'm not sure where exactly the card is placed.
Is there anybody with a watercooled chipset on that board ???
THX !!! :toast:
sorry to bring this out, here, but opp are you getting a bullhead mobo, couse you are the only one that really take mobos to their limit, i really need to know the real diferences in performance between both mobos.
great score by the way.
just received the email from HPM-Computer , they said :
So , everyone in Europa , ready for start your enginee :toast: :banana4: :banana:Quote:
Dear customer,
DFI has just announced the official release date for the brandnew
nF4-boards. We expect the boards to arrive on the following days:
DFI nF4 Ultra-D: 01/27/05, 01/28/05
DFI nF4 SLI-D: 02/03/05
DFI nF4 SLI-DR: 02/03/05
HPM-Computer is one of only 3 companies in europe who is able to deliver
these boards that early.
Please remember Bullhead is a tweaked OEM board and doesn't have the overclocking features built in, the bios has been tweaked to overclock but it does have its limits.Quote:
