And there are other soundcard companies beside Creative who might make one :)
Though, I agree with you that 1X slots p!ss me off. I think they should all be 4X at least. I'd rather they just make them all full length (ie. ATI physics scenario), but that makes things space tight/more expensive.
It has been far too long for DFI to bring out this board. As other were saying, Oskar Wu or Tony OCZ should be modding the BIOS very shortly.
Personally, I am really into DFI just because they overclocked better (939 wise). I sincerely hope that this board will live up to DFI standard.
Either this one with a modded BIOS or a Foxconn for me very soon.

Ram rang jang.
300 MHz is to low for HTT!
I would like to see FX62 working like 7x400!
Or even better 3GHz with 6x500 ;)
top of the line and no dolby digital live?
serious problem dfi
nobody buys it
Dude, you're killing your FX-62 man... 69ºC is way too high! :stick:
Nobody buys this board to enjoy some dolby BS. This board is purely for overclocking...If you want better sound, just get an X-Fi.Quote:

lol
why i have to spend 100€ in a dolby digital live card if i could buy one abit or foxconn at same price?
i will exchange my asus m2n-sli to abit or foxconn for sure
Sorry, am I on the wrong forum? Is this AudioFreaks.org?
You want massive overclock? Get a board designed for that (DFI).
Want good sound onboard? Buy a board that has dolby digital.
Want both? Get a DFI and an XFI.
Well so far we haven't seen a massive OC either. Maybe the DFI NF4 board is the best?
almost all conroe boards using 965/765 chipsets use dolby digital live
amd loose market for sure
cpus too slow and mobos with bad audio asics
creative x-fi don't have dolby digital live

Despite its fancy new architecture, onboard memory, support for Dolby Digital ES and DTS-EX output, and THX certification, the X-Fi won't encode Dolby Digital Live. According to Creative, Dolby Digital Live support would make the X-Fi more expensive due to both licensing costs and the need for additional tank RAM on the chip. Creative also asserts that Dolby Digital Live encoding introduces a small amount of latency, and points out that it's limited to 5.1-channel output. Perhaps more notably, Creative says that Dolby Digital Live encoding can't handle DRM-protected content since it passes unprotected data through a digital output. That's an interesting limitation, although PC enthusiasts have never really been enthusiastic about DRM-encrusted content.
looks like it would be a better board than these 939's, but im not that impressed :\
/me waits for a modded bios
this really makes me want to go AM2.
of course it needs a better bios and at least a B revision, then it will the best, people you expect too much from a beta board... jeez
why are we talking about onboard audio. if you want dobly bs then buy a card that supports it. 'nuff said, don't like it don't buy it.
Enough already.
So far so good. All we need is a bios AND A PRICE!!!!!!! (Roughly)
Keep Ultra DFI or go for the Eagle as was put earlier!
Just got the pricing info from Malaysian distro... price after conversion is USD$294 for the LP UT NF590 SLI-M2R.
:eek:
:(
:mad:
:nono:
Oh, well. DFI Ultra I stay with.
I am sure conversion rates and initial tight supply are causing this. I bet you will see it down to $200 rapidly as availability increases.Quote:
