Yeah - I also hope so though beeing not in UK - now it's time, got my new baby (LEADTEK 6600 GT EXTREME) today, it's bored a little without mobo....

I'm still waiting for both to come back in stock :(

If the DFI nf4ultra boards came out this week under $160, that would be f'in awsome.

check this out... anandtech review

I am definetly buying this mobo :)

althougt i cant make up my mind about which ram modules to get...

Either the ocz vx or rev 2, you guys have any thougts on this matter.. Seems to me the higher fsb speeds on the rev2 gives it an edge in bandwith...

Dunno about them, perhaps they are math impaired, 1.55x36% = 2.108 to be exact. That's the max in my board at least ;)

Somehow one of my muskin bh5 died at 3.4v, makes errors on fixed adress. i dont hope this also reason for new revision. mine is A00. can somebody explain difference beetween A00 and A01 ? Looks like the Ultra already does have Rev. A02. im thinking about sending mobo back. cause my VX come from RMA and i dont wanna let them die again.

:confused: If Ya RAM is faulty it is not the board and if Ya board is faulty it is not the RAM - so best will be to check the RAM on another board....

damn! I asked zzf to email me when the DFI LANPARTY nF4 SLI-DR was back in stock. Just booted up, checked the email, and they said they had it in stock. Went right to the page with my credit card in hand, and it is already back ordered again! Damn it! Eh I guess I can wait though. No PCI express graphics yet. Gotta wait for the tax return check in mid Feb to buy 2x6800gt's.

And they mention us too @ Anandtech.

EDIT: Here it says that the mobo VCORE goes to 2.1 :

:( Man - makes me feel sad to here that - these times are hard and I really do not understand the behavior of resellers - this is a big chance to make money - thousands of people want to buy.........., and nothing is available.

Reminds me to the commies - they also have to preorder everything and then waiting years for it.............

The Ram was running stable on the DFI , raising voltage to 3.4 somehow broke it. already checked on other board.
