:) So we are back to the problem :( When my stuff arrives I will do some measurements and think about making oneQuote:

the third test

is this normal? :confused:
Thanks for the clarification, sorry its my bad not to mention it. The important thig is just be carefull with nf4 chipset core if you wanna use after market hs.Quote:

:confused: If WC block won't fit and 1A cooling won't relaese one for the DFI I'll use this here:Quote:

I've got two kits of it, one is still cooling my AGP card and from the second I only use the fan for active MOSFET cooling.
It's heavy pure copper and working fine, I think a lot of better quality than the cheap stock one.
On socket A I used it also for NB cooling before I put my WC on the NB and there I got exactly the same temperatur on water than on air.
But I'm not sure if it is also on NF4 - here we go with a united NB & SB in one chipset so maybe the heat is a lot more than on socket A.
But it's the only chance I see so far...............

i suggest we all do?
im not getting any response though.. :(
hope their customer support is ok
I remember reading somewhere that the NF4 chip gets quite hot.... :( I wonder, are DFI still using the magnetically driven fan? I hope it lasts better than the TMD fans of a couple of years ago ;)Quote:

How can i use memtest and CPUtest buld in ?Quote:

:D THX Blindbat - can You explain "magnetic levitation"? Usually the stock chipsetcoolers are cheap trash, thin alu material and a cheap fan.Quote:

Can You gimme an advice?
THX! :toast:
i don´t see memtest or cpu test in the boot menu or is it hidden?
HCC :)
I presume it is like this
http://www.dansdata.com/tmdfan.htm
I think a genuine "magnetically levitated" fan ie one in which the rotor is floating in a magnetic field and there are no bearings at all would be EXTREMELY expensive. I use vacuum pumps at work which are based on that principle and they cost £10,000 :eek:
Edit: looking at the picture of it, I guess its not like the TMD fan. So maybe some sort of magnetic levitation, but also a bearing in the middle
:D O.K. - I see, seems to be hightec and lets hope that it will work for a long time.............Quote:

:toast:
Yes maybe :) Actaully I don't think its like the TMD one cos I can't see any coils on the rotor tips. Still, perhaps it will be quiet, at least ;) I will still look in to making a block when I get the board and video card....Quote:

Best way to describe it is think of two magnets with the same pole facing each other, they will push themselves away from each other, in this case this magnetic force field is used to make the fan wheel spin.Quote:

If they did the same as the LanParty UT 250GB, try this:Quote:

:D THX - nice advice, so does anyone here who's already received the board know what material the stock cooler is? Can't imagine it's copper.....Quote:

im really hoping that this mobo will be good, im expecting it to ATLEAST hit 350fsb because with my msi i could get 410fsb not stable but 380-390 was 100% stable and the dfi every one says its for overclockers.
Hardcoreclocker- it might be sad but true that the boards sent to reviews and stuff like that have been selected to work very good, reaching high fsb and that the y was good with all diffrent memory types (ust hoping it wont be that) if it is like some says, i ust spent something like 300dollar on a mobo that is crappyer than my msi and thats NOT god :(
:D True words my friend - for me it's even more to spend, I need a new PCI-E GPU because I'm still on AGP so I ordered a LEADTEK 6600GT EXTREME for about $250 plus price of the board - that's reality.Quote:

and it´s not possible to get more than 3,2vdimm in the bios.
i´ve placed the jumper to get 4vdimm, but i can only see 3,2 available
is the reason my 20 pin atx psu or is there something wrong wih this bios
if u listen to that fan on the website it sounds loud as...well loud. But maybe it was realy close. Those sound liek they would make sweet case fans
