My HyperX is CH5, the default timings are suppossed to be 2-3-2-?, but according to CPU-Z the spd timings are 2.5-3-3-8. Its strange. My ram is running at 2.8v now BTW.Quote:

I think the DFI doesn't read the SPD properly or something. My HyperX should default at 2-2-2-6, but the mobo set it to 2-3-2-5 :confused: . But the board loves my HyperX, 250MHz 2-2-2-7 with only 3.2V :eek: . On my NF7 I had to give it 3.35V for that :stick:Quote:

270MHz 3.6V is also stable though :D
i had some problem to run my memory clock more than 260 in windows(pass all test in memtest@270mhz)
really headache about it...any solution ??btw mine is 512mb bh6x2
its the ondie memory controller. keep playing with settings and or settle for now and hope that when u upgrade to venice things will be much better:)
From the day i bought DFI NF4 i have constant freezing problems in XP if i try doing more things at once, any ideas ? Bios is 2/18....etc...
:D Go back to 2/17 or try newer March BIOS............ :toast:Quote:

i have another issue even with bois 310 .....it wont detect my NEC 3500 correct in Bios.....how to solve? With 1 stick of RAM it finds it correct
s.o.s :D
a small vcore issue on my sli-dr.
the vcore on my cpu-z are lower then the bios show.
when i set the vcore on 1.55v on the bios its show that its 1.55v, but in the cpu-z or the smartguadian its show 1.5v.
who do i believe ?
last bios : 310p.
thanks
This may just be a difference in reporting, but..................Quote:

It has info on a voltage issue I "discovered". Basically, use the 103% Special VID, 110% Special VID, etc and leave the regular VID at 1.45 or less. I think it's a Cool n Quiet issue and seems to show up more often on newer CPU's.
try it andyOCZ
i set the vcore on the bios to 1.4v + 110% on the special vid, and after the reset the
bios show : 1.54-1.55v like its supposed to be
but the ocz and the smartguadian show 1.504 +-.
Not to worry, that is just a normal reporting error. Always believe believe the BIOS before Windows reporting.Quote:

Hey guys, DFI noob here.
Anyone with an ultra modded to sli flash the bios for sli? Is the connection all thats need to run sli?
All three boards have the same bios!U only need the connection on chipset. :)
Thx a bunch!! :cool:
Np!
Hope to see some nice benches from u! :toast:
Hey guys, I tried starting a thread on this, but got nearly no responses.
How would using 4x256MB of memory affect overclockability compared to 2x256MB? They'd be all single-sided sticks of BH5...
Here's another Ultra to SLI modding tip:
Watch for the felt square on the bottom of the stock chipset fan. When the HSF is in place, the felt rides right on top of the bridge area. So if you use pencil or conductive grease it can be smeared and fail. If you use non permanent connection method (like I did using grease), you'll want to cover the closed bridge with a small peice of tape or something:)
After the mod, watch for the boot up screen to say "Nforce4 SLI" versus "Nforce4 Ultra". That's all there is to it.
One final word, watch out for the new Ultra chipsets that have the bridge covered by enamel and not easily re-connected. Nvidia has been doing this for a few weeks now and these boards will be hitting the channel soon.
They've already hit retail stores... see attached pic (SLI version).
Makes me wonder what the two covered jumpers are for (they are open on all the versions of the chipset I've looked at, NF4, NF4 Ultra, NF4 SLI)... a yet unknown perf capability? :confused:

Good info! I cannot make out what's under the enamel in the pic though.Quote:
