They removed the molex, that's it. They replaced the 4pin with an 8pin connector.

From my experience current DFI NF4 has 10 out of 10.

:toast:

well then i think it means its is 12/10 for overclocking then. :)

i like this, will move to x2 when it comes out

does this run the nf chippy that has 2x 16 lane pci-e connectors for grfx?

It does absolutely not have 2x 16 lane pci-e. That requires the 2050 (or whatever it is called) in addition to the NF4Pro (2200), but there is clearly only one NB....not only that but it has been known for awhile that this is a refresh of the NF4SLI.

damn... looks nice, i wish they made one for an agp slot, some of us are still stuck in the stone age.... :banana:

are they gonna include a 4pin to 8 pin adapter for the people who dont have a native 8 pin psu ?

i think you can plug the p4 connector in the 8 pin socket, its just you wont to see the true overclocking "potential" of the new board

maby the placing of the cpu next to the power in might help in some manner?
there has to be a reason behind the revised layout

I suppose we all know that DFI scrapped the 3.3v and 5v option to source vdimm from.

BUT..

Will vdimm be sourced by 3.3v rail like in NF3 250gb or 5v rail in the DFI LP B?

I think DFI did review the 4.0V situation. I hope that this refresh will be cooler one (possible 5V only) and provide a clear current. They have had more then 6 months to refresh this board and additional 3 months to "de-bug" it too. So chances are very rare of this board eating any RAM.

looks like ill have to send pcp&c my psu so they can mod it to the 8 pin

how many PSUs are on the market that have 8 pin connectors?
09-25-2005, 03:49 PM

All OCZ and some Enermax do I think.

It won't be critical, they can make an adapter to make 4Pin + a molex or two (I think) into the 8Pin.

well I there will be reprocutions in using the pin converter. So I want to have an 8 pin unmodded PSU if I ever planned on getting this board.

My new Seasonic S12-600 has one. Just got done sleeving that particular rail. :banana:

Scaling VTT has increased overclocking margin anywhere between 0 and 10 MHz in my testing. It is module/CPU/board dependent. This is why having the flexibility there is useful...tune it for what you have.

Good to know, thanks Grayskull.

my 2x 650W Silverstone PCI SLI psus have 8pin connectors http://i4memory.com/showthread.php?t=441

there's 8pin to 4pin adaptor as the 8pin is default (top right of pic)

Looks like a very good PSU there--very capable for the upcoming DFI boards too. How much was it?

In Australia to compare prices

850W PC Power Cooling SLI = AUD$680
700W Zippy = AUD$450-490
510W PC Power Cooling SLI = AUD$386
600W OCZ Powerstream = AUD$310-340
680W Thermaltake Purepower = AUD$245-255
650W Silverstone SLI = AUD$215-230
550W Antec Truepower 2.0 EPS12V = AUD$200
480W Antec Neopower = AUD$189

Hey, my PCP&C850SSI has the 8pin connector as well :D :banana:

I wonder though, whether DFI will again blame the users for "not using proper PSU" if people who don't own PSU's with native 8pin connectors will start experiencing weird problems with the boards :rolleyes: But we will see ;)

I bought 2 for myself and 2 for other friends.
3 from newegg has both 4 pin and 8pin built in.
1 from other retail had 8 pin only and a 4pin converter

edit: meant 850SSI not the board.
