I want it to be DFI related and i think 95% of the ppl on this thread agree with me.
Good bye.
Wow, if I stoped posting every time someone got pissed at me I would have stopped after the first time, and there wouldn't have been a second or a third time, so i don't know where i am going with this...you went over the top, and he got offeded, both of you can get over it now and continue posting.
I would take .2v extra for 7 more days. Can we wait another 14 days and get 3.7v stock? BigToe, could you have simply modded the bios before to allow 3.3v or are they changing something else to allow you to do so? Is it then safe to assume the vdim comes off of the +5v rail and not the 3.3v rail?
Well I am not posting as much as I use to anymore...half of my posts are pointless and useless.
Just let it go...now we are thread crapping :D
Well we have until the 9th because of the delay. But if they are making the board better then more power to them and I will wait:D
Its quite easy and here is the thread to show you what to do, i hope you find it useful...Quote:

Though it outlines Win2k, it still works within WinXP.

New boards have Vagp and higher vdimm options.I will be modding the bios to allow 3.3Vdimm as soon as Oskar sends it to me.
Thanks OPP for the Vagp....;)
Wow, kickass. So does this mean the boards still ship today or is there a delay? Or is there another revision to allow the higher voltages? Thanks
Yup, DFI has been using the 5v rail for a while now.Quote:

I was told it was run off of the 3.3V.Quote:

So if you have a weak 3.3v rail it wouldn't be 3.3v? Not that I have that problem, but should be good for people to know that they might still need to atleast do a psu mod for 3.3v.
Oskar told me he did want to implement Vdimm off the 5V line with 4V available thru bios, unfortunatelly the board uses the 3.3V line and as such 3.25V max is all you are going to get. I can unhide all options in bios but they ain't going to work.
Would they work with a modded 3.3v line? If so, could you unlock as high as 4v? Damn, they should have gone with 4v and the +5v rail, that would have realy turned some heads and generated even more talk about an already incredibly hyped board!
Amazing people are never happy, no matter what.
They could always put the voltages to stock levels again :rolleyes: If you want 4V's, then mod your damn board. 90% of the people buying it will be happy with 3.1.
I just received 2 sticks of Crucial ballistix 512 3200 sticks 2 days ago. No joke it's killer memory. stock SPD setting are 2.5-2-2 and i've got them burning in folding in a IS7 @ 250fsb 1:1 with no volt mod and 2.77 actual Mem volts!!!Quote:

I'll be putting up some numbers with them tomorrow night. Finally i have some "all around memory"
Waiting to get the DFI myself, And a reasonable price

Man i hate waiting. I sold my vapo, MSI board and chip And vid card.
Does anybody know if this board is going to be compatible with amd64 mobile's? I was looking to get a 3400+ clawhammer mobile at newegg because they're $80 cheaper than the desktop version. Also on a sidenote, does anyone know if the mobile's are CO or CG stepping?
How could be a mobile version cheaper than a desktop one? aren´t they better for OC?
One more question. I have 2x512 Adata PC4000 on my ASUS K8V SE Deluxe. Currentrly it´s running at 442mhz 2.5-4-3-5 (no PCI/AGP Lock available) and it only gives me about 2700Mb/s on sandra´s mem buffered test.
Is it normal that poor result? I don´t know how to better those results until I change this board with the DFI but here in Spain I´ll have to wait for it.
I know the 3500/3700EB are better but will I be able to get a decent bandwith with this mem on the DFI?
They are usually more then the desktop versions and yes they overclock better...and they usually require less voltage to run if I remember correctly...although someone back me up on that because I am not exactly sure....
And that is a poor score....I have 512x2 of PC3200 at 2.5-3-3-7 running at 215 on the bus and I am getting 3200+Mb/s. So to me something doesn't seem right at all with that memory man.
On my old P4-2.8C on the AI7 i865 it gives me around 4800Mb/s so i think the memory is OK but since I got the 3200+ and the asus I have to poor results. I know the timings of my mem are a bit slow but 2700mb is TOO slow in my opinion. I sopose that I won´t know if it works better on the DFI until I have it but I don´t understand how a common kingston value ram at 400 scores better on a friends Epox nforce3 250gb than mine on an asus (via) at 442mhz. Timings are more relaxed on mine but it´s running at 42mhz more, so it should be compensated.
Sorry for my bad english :(
Comparing dual-channel (4800Mb/s -> 2400Mb/s per channel) to single-channel (2700Mb/s)? Both results seem to be slow in my eyes...Quote:

Greetz, Flox
Mine is running Single Channel....and my friends gets about the same score on my memory in Dual Channel on his AMD board.
I´ve started another thread to mantain this for the great DFI.
I´ve posted my sandra report so you can see all the numbers, timings and so.

Please ppl help me
How many of the people here were the first 10 to order the board?
I stand corrected. My info came from DFI-Street. The DFI rep there said that DFI had been using the 5V line on other MBs and expected that this would too. As Bigtoe said, guess they wanted to but couldn't.Quote:

i just placed preorder for DFI s754 board from mittoni.com.au at AUD$303 total = US$220 still more expensive than any s754 and some s939 boards but hey got the ram pile for it and the cooling http://www.fileshosts.com/watercooling/DIY/6002_MCP650/ just need the board :D
The mobo has a problem at first post if the mem voltage is over 3.6V.Quote:

In other words, if you save and exit the bios over 3.6V you'll get a black screen. If you are at 3.55V going out of the bios or on a reboot there is no problem.
Once your past this this first post you can up the mem voltage as high as you want.
