And that's what mine is. I'm working at designing a completely internal watercooling loop for the CPU using a 120.2 rad to fit in my mATX TJ08...and knowing that I could move to DFI's X58 mATX board and pickup a second GTX260 is amazing!!!

Where do I get the 10/30 bios?
I downlaoded latest bios from DFI (it's the 10/07 I think) and the issue is still there.
As soon as EIST is enabled, it raises the Vcore to 1,39V when loaded (idle is 1,23-1,24V like it should be). Tried with Vdroop control enabled and disabled.
EIST off and it's 1,23V regardless of C state (running the E0 E8400 at 4Ghz).
C1E always enabled...
DFI's site - Beta section
10/30 BIOS
Thanks.. will try tomorrow. Apart from that the mobo passed every test I could think of with flying colours. I only had to lower GTL refs to 0,63.. the E8400 hated the stock GTL settings (0,67) of the mobo :shrug:
Well, if EIST would work, the whole rig would consume approx. 50W less while in idle. Subsequently, temps would go down, which in turn means lower fan rpm.
If only they would have implemented some sort of fan control (no, CPU fan only is NOT a fan control...). If I had to pick 1 point I don't like about this board, it would have to be the lack of fan control capabilities.
This is when I wish Abit wouldn't leave the market...
Oh i love this little thing, but how stable is the vcore? Is it "Commando VCore", or is it pretty stable with only 4 phase.
With Vdroop control disabled, the Vcore doesn't move 1 bit like on the "big" 8 phase X38/X48 UT/LT boards. Idle = load Vcore, at least with the E8400@4Ghz.
Nice, then its this or the ud3p, need a mono to keep my ddr2 rig alive. Any sugestions?
I am happy to report that EIST works correctly with the latest 10/30 beta bios. 1,15V idle/1,23V load now.
Thanks. I only use E8400's at max mult with this mobo tho.. got 5 DFIs in yesterday, all 5 gone already :D
Best E8400 needed 1,19V to do the 4Ghz, worst 1,29V. All liked the 0,63x GTL ref/1,10V VTT combination for FSB 445.
I really like this mobo, no headaches really.
cant wait for that M-ATX board to come out
anything new on this mobo? BIOS, Quad and so on?
