Do you know of any 6800 Ultra cards out that are out and available from online retailers right now?
No I sure don't. I don't know what I'm gunna do about some 6800 cards. I might be able to talk one out of MSI,, then I'll only need one more:D What a pain!!Quote:

6800 ultra won't be available for at least 2 months I would assume:(
"Thanks to magnetic levitation technology, the spinning fan blades “float” in a magnetic field and thereby dramatically reduces friction, wear and tear, and heat generation. All of these hardware implementations directly contribute to cooler, quieter and longer lasting motherboards."
LOL, is it safe to put magnets right next to where your hard drives go?
2 months?!?! Sheesh. I wonder if ATI will have their AMR solutions out by then. :confused:Quote:

Not really but probably those magnets aren't powerful enough to cause any trouble and hopefully they've done some testing.Quote:

Oh, man, oh, man. This stuff just makes me want to start speculating. On second thought, I better not. I'll let someone else do it for me. :)
It would seem that DFI has been taken over by some master alien race and is slowly incorporating their technology into PC mobo's in a bid to take over the world, knowing full well that the enthusiast market is all high end power computers that will all eventualy join and become self conscious...... muhuhuhuhaaahahaha.Quote:

due to the small size of the fan and use of a narrow field design the HDD will not see any flux and thus be safe.

Hi
So just to clarify, will there be a DFI NF3 939, and if so, approximately when?
yea most pc speakers will have neodynium, which is why they specify that they are monitor safe.
i'm glad that they put a pci e x1 slot above the 2 PEG slots, all the other companies have been idiots about that.
they look really coll but they are the same in Opps pics
so the only difference is the package w/frontx and sli bridge?
exciting but waiting for AMR gets a little more use out of my current stuff wich i love
EDIT seems they both have the bridge so who would get the package crap? chaintech vnf oced way better then znf with the bundle
AH another difference the LP has 4 sata connectors. those are un needed as sata 2 connectors work with sata 1 drives/cables?
Any comments on how loud that chipset fan is? Is it audible?
Who cares if you intend running 300 fsb on it? :cool:Quote:

Wow, less than 24 hours after I purchased my Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe, this board is announced. Hopefully Asus will release better BIOS' so that I won't be forced to dump this board.
dude best advice i can give you, and so will everyone else on this board: if you are within 24 hours of purchasing it then either cancel your order if it hasn't shipped. or return it, <3 return policies!Quote:

Exactly
But according to the manual, the NF4 LANPARTY SLI-DR is the top range model. Howecome it isn't on the web yet? I only see the Lanparty NF4 SLI-D.
If i dosh out 300 bucks for a motherboard i want to have all that extra unnecessary stuff along with it! :)
Linky for youQuote:

Heyas,
For those who are lucky enough to have the board, is it possible to judge whether an Thermalright XP-120/XP-90 will fit on them nicely? :D
any chance of seeing the board later today at e-tailers???
Ohh this is so sweet, swedish supplyers seem to have the card kinda far away :(
I hope some danish retailers or perhaps overclockers.co.uk get it in their sortiment soon :)
FDD and HDD will be getting power from the motherboard? :confused:Quote:
1 24-pin ATX power connector
1 4-pin ATX 12V power connector
2 4-pin 5V/12V power connectors (FDD-type and HDD type)
Looks like another great motherboard for both casemodders and overclockers from DFI. :toast:
Some Update: not all the vdimm is usable according to BIOS. It maxed out at around 3.2v even when it was set to 4.0v. Unlike Asus A8N, the board managed to run my GSkill RAM up to DDR670 1M SuperPI benchable. Of course, it was 1T setting. Using sample board of MSI Neo4 Diamond, the same RAM maxed out at DDR650. No pics and screenies yet, Sorry!!
Similar to Asus A8N, you have to plug HDD-type power connector to the board to run SLI cards but there is also an additional connector which is using a floppy power connector. I don't know what this is for. Maybe need to plug in this to get 4v vdimm? The strange thing is that when we plug in the floppy power connector to the board, the vdimm is maxed out at 2.5v :confused:
Huuu?? Makes no sense. The manual must say something about how it´s intended??Quote:

That's it. Is the dream of true 4.0Vdimm over? It seems it still depends on the power of your 3.3v rail... :brick: Can you adjust your PSU line voltages to confirm this?Quote:

My Antec Truepower 430W is doing a good job untill now :)
Looks like a great board(s). Im sure the vdimm issue will get solved.
Need...to...sell...more.... pc's.... need....socket.....939....
I have a confirmation that Swedish distributors on DFI´s list will get cards in store in two weeks. Cards will "depart" from DFI in one week.Quote:

Sweeden is closer :)
http://www.asbis.se/ not on their site yet though. Got confirmation on phone.
Ok nice. I wrote to the danish retailers, hope to get a reply soon. Considering that the 925X-T2 costs 1800DKK, and has a MSRP @ $200, wtf is the danish price going to be? 2500DKK? Thats about $350, and about $400
Scary....
Thats just to much. According to comparations with listprices in the US on MSI Diamond a 320$ will be about 2200SEK. So applied to the DFI this will be: 299$ = 2000SEK
ok, sounds much better. DFI motherboards are heavily overpriced in DK, the sweedish shop is cheaper, not taking into account that its in SEK! :D
this is gonna be even more of a frustrating wait now, waiting for the boards to hit aussie shores while the rest of you bastards are playing with them :p:
and heres some :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: for good measure.
"Den danske distributør har valgt ikke at tage den hjem i første omgang, så jeg ved ikke hvornår den lander i Danmark."
In other words, the danish distributor decided to pass on this board in the first round, waiting untill the 2nd batch. WTF?! :mad: :mad:
Im buying from asbis.se in that case or overclockers.co.uk
No way im waiting for those "#¤¤#¤&!"¤!#"¤@£@£ danes to get it in stock in April. This is the problem with living in a foreign country. You do not always understand the mentality and often stupidity of the nation. :stick:
while nice... it would be much easier if they could derrive vdimm via 5V rail! hopefully it's just bios issue ?/Quote:

Its still crazy, #1 board, and the distributor decides to pass on it :( The distributor obviously hasnt had his head screwed on the right way :)
Ellers i tjekkiet : DFI? Wooo... Didint get that part mate :D Those damn danish people cant talk or write :Lol: ;)
Distributor have no ideá what he´ll loose in profit on that one..
Opp already said earlier in the thread said Wu made vdimm off the the 5 rail this time around, so either he's wrong, or there is something missing?Quote:

Sorry, my bad :(

Whats this thing with nVidia offering 20x PCI-E anyway is it for the future or what??
He actually didn't say it, he said he thinks that Oskar designed it that way (as this would be logical from overclockers point of view).Quote:

Thats an assumption, and an assumption is roughly equivalent to a guess :)
http://www.ninjalane.com/radio.aspx
radio (shoutcast) interview with DFI . 250 spots open . Dunno when though all these timezones got me confused .
It's an assumption, to get 4V anybody in their right mine would use a 5V source. How do you get 4 volts from a 3.3V line without having to mickymouse the thing:DQuote:

Here is a e-mail from 5 months ago when I was talking to Oskar about the 754 mobo. As you can see he talks about useing the the 5V.Quote:

Although I want to change the VDIMM converting source from 3.3V to 5V , it's impossible based on current board layout and placement ...

I'm guessin the cast will start @ 18.00 , time here now is 17.23 . And yes i'll record it ;] .Quote:

Hi
So, will there be a DFI NF3 939, and if so, approximately when?
Who want's to bet these things will be going for $400+ on eBay??
Damn! I'm not getting email notifications from this thread. Now I have to go back two pages and start reading... :(
Anybody else with the same problem?
vivian is talking right now. on the radio link. I'm recording it.
thank god cause after my promise i managed to let computer crash 5 seconds into the show and aparantly i cant record streams now without crashing my winamp so i'm out .Quote:

This was aweful. Who was the moron asking the questions? He asked all the wrong questions. no personality and didn't seem prepared. I'n not even going to bother with the sound file, it's not even worth saving. That Vivian on the other hand, She is my dream girl. Sounds kinda sexy too. Maybe that's why he couldn't ask the right questions? He was distracted by her sexyness?Quote:
