I just got this from someone from DFI street. CPU should be here today (E6600) Can't wait to see what she will do with new BIOS. Will post results after x-mas day.

Someone running air or h2o would probably be fine with this board and a 6600 or higher. Another reason I got rid of mine is because you can't change multipliers, even with an ES cpu.
BTW: I think the board may go higher than 460 with vmch and vsfb mods, I ran out of pots to try that. I was getting ready to go to dry ice and knew I was going to need more than 500fsb, which I'm sure I'd never get on this board.
Why there is no way to change multis? Is DFI can do it trough the BIOS update or it just a way 975 chipset set?
should be possible with a new bios.Quote:

There is a later beta bios out, but I'm not interested atm.
One problem I had when setting up was the system refused to bootup to the bios splash screen with 2 x 1Gb OCZ Platinium XTC sticks on board in dual channel. Even with only 1 stick - no bootup.
I had to use my Corsair 8000ULs in dual channel to bootup and start some overclocking once Windows XP was installed...
Its rare to hear of such hardware conflicts in this day in the PC world, but this was one of them...
Not really. I've read more than one comment on several different boards that needed to be booted with lesser rated memory/voltage just to get things started...I would however like to see mobo mfg's default the memory voltage in the shipping bios up to at least 2.0v to get rid of these types of problems. Even though my Geils are rated at 2.40v they still booted up right out of the box on my first Infinity build. Memory conflicts will be around as long as mobos are around. Aint never gonna get rid of them completely...Quote:
