DFI looks to have a winner here.

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.

So if I was to select 3.6v and got a black screen, would I then power the machine off and back on, and that would take care of the issue, or is it more complicated to get it to boot with 3.6v+?

This is in no way productive, it is just simply thread crapping. It isn't even a reasonable interpretation of my post. I was very happy with 3.1v, I am more happy with 3.3v, but my mentality as well as 90% of the people in this forum feel that more volts the better! Obviously DFI felt the same if they tried to off 4v which is more than I have ever heard of offered stock, so I don't know what you are talking about. I also made a valid point that 4v would have turned heads, and created even more hype, so it would have helped dfi even more, and I am sure that was one of the reasons they wanted to allow 4v.

I am assuming this is a case of someone reading the last post in a thread and feeling the need to put someone else down. 3.1v is not the stock voltate, infact there isn't a stock voltage yet because the board hasn't been finalised apparently, and as of now the max vdim was changed to 3.3v, but apparently you don't take the time to actually read before you post, you just blurt out the first absurd thing that comes to your mind.

I don't appreciate that kind of attack, nor do I appreciate your negative nonproductive post. If you want to thread crap and attack people you don't belong here.

Sorry for the rant, but this guy realy touched a nerve:mad:

It won't post at 3.6, so if it is turned off at 3.6 then turned back on it won't post:D

The best way to run over 3.6 is with OCZ booster.
Run what ever Voltage you want after post, before you reboot dial down the voltage below 3.6, this could also be done with an adjustable 3.3 line PSU.

man, what do u all guys want with VDIMM > then 3.3V ? :rolleyes: :D ;)

:banana3: a have also the DFI coming to me,i expect it around the 15/16 sept,a find it very fast for belgium.

performance greater than my last system which was an intel 3.0c @ 4ghz with 1GB mushkin black lvl2 pc3500 @ 534mhz 2-2-2-5 @ 3.7V for over 3 months rock solid. I would be very unhappy if a mod did not allow me to reach higher than 3.3v. It may end up limiting the fx-53 which I'm about to order (As soon as the damn dfi board comes out I'm ordering everything).

Voltage + cooling = speed.

DFI and Level II

OPP

What kind of score did that do on the DFI?

But the OCZ EB is still the best for the DFI correct?

Or is the Cosair any good as well?

Cool, it's good to see the Mushkin will play in this board. :cool: Well, I'm hurrying up & waiting as fast as I can, lol. My X800 VIVO shipped yesterday, so I'll probly have it Tuesday, and sooner or later, this mobo's gonna get here. :D

Glad i kept my 2x256 XMS3500 now:) Will be able to get some great bench scores with all that vdimm + a DDR booster to play with ;)

I have a friend who wants this board, but he wants to know if a thermalright xp120 heatsink will fit. and also will his DTR 3200 work? Also, do you know if the xp120 will have any contact issues on the dtr?

AFAIK someones already asked this question and the answer is no to the XP-120.

Although everything fits after a bit of time with a dremel or hacksaw.

slk948u then. Thanks man

Hi fellow DOC's,

the place to be is in http://www.bytesatwork.be the have it in next week friday or the week afther monday(17 or 20 sept) a now a have say't 15/16 but 17/20 is more likly.

There is not yet a price set but you can order one the will send you the € when the have from the wholeseller(groothandel).

@tomati,

are you from Belgium?

Enybody nows if a will have troubel with the corsairs pc3500c2rev1.1(bh5)or will a by better off with OCZ pc3700EB,watt do i take then for best performance 2x256mb or 2x512mb(for benchen and gamen),becaus i will buy some OCZ sticks.:rocker:

I love that smiley:rocker: :rocker: it is made special for me a think(not):lol:

2x256MB = benching-config

2x512MB = gaming-config

;)

Big THX rocker, I was trying to find a shop in belgium, but there arent that many shops that sell DFI. Lets hope they do get it the 14th, that would be great.

Yes but with 1 stick of 512mb you lose your dualchannel and that make's a lot of performance differens,i think.

It's better then with 2x256 then 1x512 is'nt that right:) ,a now it's a drag,for best in all that you have 2x256 and 2x512,but who can afford that;).

O :brick: :am: was thinking of s939,and it as to be s754:brick: :brick: ,indeed single mem.

There is no dual channel.

Check out the new XP-90 as well. The Thermalright tech support guy told me the XP-90 runs 3C cooler in his machine than the SLK948U.

It is just out. Heatsink Factory is expecting to start shipping on Tuesday. Check out this review.

You know if that one will fit ?
Should i mail them ?

Im going to order the XP-120 and try to make it fit, cant be impossible =)

The XP-90 should fit, according to Thermalright tech support. It has no known incompatibilities with existing 754 MBs at this point.

Let us know how the XP-120/DFI adjustment process goes. Hopefully, it is not too expensive.! :D
