Omg 300 dollars for that?
if it's around $300 i think i'll pass...
This is so DFI's style. Very nice board, but too late to the game and too expensive. And it's not like it has been going full-bore on AMD's side, so they can't use that as an excuse for late offerings.
Might as well wait for X38 now.
Not because I don't want to, but at this rate it's not very likely I'll ever buy a DFI mb again.
@AndreYang.......Is there anyone I can contact that you know that could give me some info on Raid Controller Card use and compatibility on PCI-E X4 signal speed and compatibility issues on the D.F.I P35?
Which one of the other PCI-E slots are able to scale to X4 signal the middle one or the top one?
Is it possible to contact Oskar Wu myself and have a chat about the posibilities and performance scalability using X4 signal on this board with my Raid Controller Card?
Thank you......Campbell:)
Me too. I ordered from Newegg so it should be relatively easy to replace it in case the DFI turns out better.Quote:

And show us how does that heatpipe cooler mounts please.
whats the second heatsink for?
good question:up:Quote:

oh and a question about cpu clock... that's the cpu strap rite? if so, then wat was 610 fsb's strap?
150$ mobo with 150 in un-needed heatpipes way to go dfi
Where does this "NVIDIA Raid" written on the backside of the box come from?
The FSB450 with the QUAD looks a little low - is this really the max?
Thank you for the info.
Aww, for that price I guess I'll have to skip it altho I'd really want it. I'd like to see a cheaper P35 board cuz I'm mainly interested in the tweakable DFI BIOS and onboard power/reset buttons are very handy too.
Very nice board.. maybe my new one ;)
:eek2: That's why I love DFI. The wait was worth it, that will be my next board :toast:
And just how do you get to it costing $150?Quote:

P35 ROG ships next week and I hear thats $300 also to start and has a ton of RnD time built into it, Foxconn MARS is a little cheaper I hear but again 250 or so with a ton of RnD time..
Looks like 300 may be the new cost of ubber clocking
lets see some 24/7 550-600 fsb's :rolleyes:
wot else can justify the cost of this thang?
nyway; its got good features dual lan 3 pcie, etc.
lets see some uber results :)
whats the big deal with 500fsb+? I keep asking and NO ONE can give me a straight answer.
The boards are fastest between 380 and 490 from my testing as down here the chipset is not neutered down to hold the FSB.
Im glad to see "performance level" in bios, Oskar said he would add it and has, now lets see the others open up their bios files and stop overclocking for us ;)
Yeah if this thing costs 300 bucks i'm sad to say i won't be able to afford it. I may end up passing on my Q6600 'G0' as well since i already know it doesn't clock well on this board i'm using now anyway. Tough decisions for me to make here in the near future. Not sure what to do. Right now it looks like if i want to go quad i'm gonna need a new CPU/Mobo/PSU and if i'm looking at this board i'm looking at approx 700-800 bucks in computer hardware. Ugh!
If that is the case, why do the motherboard companies keep pushing higher FSB? Why don't they focus on 380-490 while working on efficiency and price management? Is it just because people attribute performance with high FSB?Quote:

Amazing motherboard :up:
The big deal is for those that use only 7x multi CPUs. :p: At least it is for me... And my board does run faster at a 534FSB than it does at 490. ;) 534FSB is perfect to run a 1:1 mem ratio for 1067MHz RAM.Quote:

alright.. DFI uses screws on the NB and SB.. :D
Hey Andre can you post a picture of the DFI P35 LP backside?? thanks..
bingo.. have you test this board? any results yet?? :)
