Well mine is idling 51 and going 55-56 full load at 2.5
mine is @ 56°C fsb 260 mhz, that little bastard fan is very loud!!!
A yellow zalman hs would help keeping it cooler ?
I dont know about the "yellow" one, i have a Zalman NB47J (the blue one) with a mounted silent 40mm fan on top.Quote:

Keep in mind that intake/exhaust case fans are playing an important rol on cooling.
I might buy the blue one as well, but you had to cut its top to mount a fan on top of it ?Quote:

Hello
My setup is in my sig, everything is ready and connected now...
So.. heres the problem.
*Booting for the first time*
So I try to boot and then the screen stays on the "DFI Lanparty NF4" logo...
So I checked the little status leds on the bottoms left to see watup~ and the first LED is on.. which is odd because it means "VGA Detected"..
So... what seems to be the problem officer?
I've tried disconnecting hdd and opticals, switching the mem around, trying single and dual on different slots and nothing seems to work...
I have a cold boot problem in my dfi board. When I give more than 3.2volts to my mushkin ram, sometimes the board doesn't boot. I tried everything to get the system running, including resettin cmos, turning the ps switch on and off several times, changing ram slots, using different ram, using one stick on orange slots, but the only thing that worked is using one stick on the top yellow slot. By this way I was able to boot the system up. I wanted to share this experience with you. Does any of you solve this problem any other way?
so I got the board and only problems!!! I can't get my system stable.
when I run 9X278 1:1 2.5-4-4-10 2.80Vdimm (which should be preety easy for my memory) I'm memtest stable (hour of looping memtest #5)
but when I'm in windows, I can't pass even super pi 1MB!!! why???
on my neo2 with same cpu i was running 9X278 1.36Vcore for a few months no problem.
I disabled the CPU throttling (not sure if I should). the other thing is that my chipset gets very, very hot (About 52C idle) and PWN also (about 48idle)
I tried to run 8X278 but super pi still no go, so I assume it's not the memory.
I'm running everything at auto settings except throttling, LTD, FSB and mem voltage. What should I do??? please help me out guys, I want to play san andreas:D
Seriously, try to help.

BIG thanks in advance
As long as it stays under 70-80C i wouldn't worry about it. I think nVidia rates the nForce 4 chipsets up to 120C.Quote:

I hate the gasping sound of that little bastard fan! :slapass:
As long as you have video card clearance then you shouldn't have any problem replaceing it with an aftermarket solution.Quote:

i also got a problem
- dfi ut nf sli-dr
- san diego 4000+
- newcastle 3500+
- 2 x6800 msi
- 2 x 512 gskill xtreme 4400 le
- 680watt thermaltake
the mobo still gives me de code 3 (3 led s on the left bottum of the board are on , mean cpu detection ? dont know what to do anymore.
greets bio
I had the exact same problem, was a dead boardQuote:

bad luck DFI :slapass:
Where can I measure vcore and vdd in that board?

Have you got a part number for that lantec fan? where does one find this? Is there a stock hs under that?
Thanks

I assume it is very easy to remove the stock HS and replace it with the Vantec
So I really don't get it. There's the Cold Boot problem where if you unplug the AC power, your mobo forgets what original voltage it was set to. Some people have had luck with BIOS fixes and what not, but if I'm correct, this problem occurs with UTT and still exists right? That means VX and Redline especially. Is this a problem for BH5?
Also, what's with sticks of Redline and VX dying? Is this linked to the Cold Boot problem or what is this? Is this separate? And is this an issue for only those running @ very high voltages i.e. 3.5 or so?
Not sure if this is the correct thread, but anyways.
I have a doubt on DFI Ultra-D mobo.
Is it possible to have Cool'n'Quiet and OC active at the same time?
This is, like on MSI (with DOT) or Asus mobos.
