Yeah, I hope 300 wasn't where he was stopping. If the board doesn't do at least 350FSB I'll be looking to the 975X boards. (fingers crossed for 400+ FSB. :) )

Hope is the way forward , to hope is a good thing
I like how the SATA ports are positioned b/c now huge vid cards won't block them, smart thinking on their behalf.
Guys, I just spoke with DFI and they told me that the selling point for this board is SLI. If you're looking for over 400FSB, the Infinity 975X/G is the best they have ATM... until RD600 is released.
So, this board is seriously for Conroe + SLI and you need a high-multi CPU to get the best of this board due to low FSB overclocking. It does about 350FSB, which is clearly a chipset limitation. DFI is only doing their best to work around the chipset. Nevertheless, pair this board with an X6800 and 2x7900GTX, and you should have a mean machine.
Btw, the selling price will be around USD$240 and the board will be available in Oct.
Cheers!

so how am i supposed to misunderstand that ?Quote:
If you have 1300 Quad pumped FSB limit and lower LTD to 3x, what FSB you will have?!... 1300/3= 433 FSB x9 (CPU multi) = 3900mhz!!
thats like saying just because i have my ram running at 1000 mhz that means my FSB is 500 .its not. same thing your trying to say
the LDT bus was a stupid thing to begin with nvidia should have jus ttotally left that out, ldt bus has no real world effect on speeds anyways it never has.
anyways im sure he is pushing this board harder and harder so lets just keep our fingers crossed.
Poor C19A, even with DFI's expert massaging it still is a dud for overclocking. Without the upward multi's its gonna be very hard to compete on this board.
Try a Kentsfield with 17x??
I expected the DFI 590 here yesterday, a few boards are in the US now.
cant understand why its so diffucult for them to do a decent sli board? why dont they just make chipset 975 into a sli board?we see good oc boards which kan actually run sli with proper drivers ,so whats holding them back
And it's been a year+ since NF4 and nvidia still has issues? My fingers are still crossed for some better results from the Asus NF590 as it has a little better power distribution but this does not look good at all.Quote:

If that LDT multi is for the FSB Quad pumped (800/1066/1333), my "theory" mayte have some sense... After reading TonyOCZ article and looking at Coolaler pics, that came up may mind... but that's it, i have no more to say.
I will wait for more Coolaler information...
c19 is severly fsb limited fugger. c55 is new SLI chipset for conroe. ALL of These 19 variations are just a stop gap, and perform very similarly. To really push the board, it will need mods even then the fsb results aren't spectacular. The mem can crank though.Quote:

Yep my bad for calling them all one in the same C19. Its easy to make that connection when they all perform exactly the same.
is that it?

just a problem during the translation from my english i guess.
nvm
p.s.
ldt bus doesnt effect the natural state of the fsb. the amoutn you can increase the FSB sure.. but not where the fsb is the fsb is always what ever you tell it to.
the ldt bus is an independant creature from the fsb
ok i said i was backing out.. sorry lol.
NIce Pics, but damn, show us some high-fsb-action :D

Yea, I really hope you are able to get it passed that
So DFI make another Intel flop!!!
pStill early days , there is still hope , maybe?
coolaler please tell us what the max FSB is, we're all dying to know!!!
I think its before release dates and he is not allowed to say. Stop people from buying , I have preorderd mine so it aint going to make a diffeerence to me.
He is not telling you for a reason and that is for definate. I may be wrong but he got the board before us and he has to agree on things for when he did get it.
Well thats what I think , he himself seems like a nice chap but something is stopping him.
It must be a FSB (or lack thereof) NDA... :)Quote:
