How can you guys monitor the temperature ?
I read from the smartgudian soft and it shows 39'C full load @ 277x9 1.4v
:confused:
edit : I forgot to say i'm using the Hyper6
i really hope i dont get that problem, i had it on my msi board so i sold it to go for the dfi :mad:Quote:

I already tried sata spread spectrum in bios, but it wouldnt help...
any hints appreciated :stick:
edit: even with sata disabled i have severe problems(bios 126), cant boot into windows anymore at 10x275, i get a bluescreen saying "PFN_LIST_CORRUPT", thats kinda weird, cus my cpu will do 10x275 on any other s939 board... Memory was running at 133 and 166 dividers for testing as well, so it aint about that. 9x275 seems to boot fine...
Do we get the same Rev board as tested by OPP?
:confused: So what's going on here?
Fist everyone said that's the one and only board, then there was a bug which delayed relaese and now the first boards are out and people only talk about problems..........
So I'm not sure what happens - what about the SATA ports - on NEO2 3+4 are locked very well but which one to use on DFI NF4?
Is there an official comment from DFI?
See now the poeple maxing out this board at 270 - 280, even with the 1.26 BIOS, that's not the deal I expected.
What about OPP & OPB, did they get a modded BETA sample to reach that fantastic speed?
I think we have to talk about - many poeple spent their money to go with the new DFI and nobody did it to be disappointed at all........
I haven't the board yet but will come soon and I know that all my other components are fine, so I can compare the new rig straight away to the NEO2 and if there anything will be faulty nobody can tell me it's the RAM or the CPU......
BTW people who are on single phase 24/7 with the board in a case know what I'm talking about - it's not just funny to change mobo and finding out that rig before was even better - dealing with all that insulation and other things is not done in half an hour.......
So lets hope the best and expect the worst........
:toast:
anyone know when these boards are going to be availble in the states? ive been waiting like the rest of you guys and to keep seeing here and there people buying this mb is driving me crazzy cause i cant get my hands on one...
thx perc,

How are you going to cool the chipset on the DFI? Have you found a w/b that might fit?
It's R A 00Quote:

So I have here a wonderful pure copper cooler with a 50mm fan turns 5000 rpm and if WC will not work I'll take this, I'll mount it on the metal stands to the mobo which I got with the WC kit with screws and the metal clip of a ZAHLMANN chipset cooler so it will be more tightened than the stock mounting with the cheap plastic pins.

Can anyone who has a board with da new FrontX panel tell us all what exactly ya get with this one and can we add sockets from the LP NFII to this?
Cheers
Thanks :) I think I may head off to the machine shop... I guess both barbs may have to come out of the same end of the block looking at the position wrt the VGA cardQuote:

I was just thinking the same thing! Glad I haven't had the money ATM to jump on this one!Quote:

For nfoece4 chipset just be carefull cause the core is fragile like those amd xp ones. I put some neoprane on around it to give a spring like(shims) resistance which a tad higher than the core....Quote:

Are you saying the bios DOES have memtest/cpu test built in or were you asking IF it has it in?Quote:

The 1.26 beta bios got memtest86 & CPU test build in :)Quote:

Looking at the pic in post 248, I fear that cooler's barbs/tubes may hit the VGA card..... :(Quote:
