I just got mine from Monarch today. It is a week 44 from taiwan. Looks like I got an even later one than you did one page. Luckily it is the taiwan version. Hopefully I get the performance that you have been able to get out of yours. Here are the pics.

same one as MaxxxRacer :)
edit: misspelled chipset :)
yeah bit low on that paste on the chipset, can see how much i had by the outline of whiteness on it
OK, just got k8ns ultra DOA!! no post no beeps. rma'd....... Just check newegg,com for neo2. it's out of stock, but says back in stock this friday after thanksgiving. I think this is a safe bet for latest chipset. I can't wait. As much as I swore I would never own msi again, I am going to give it another try. Thanks for all the help onepagebook.
After ZZF marked my order as PACKED (CAN'T CANCEL) when in fact THEY DIDN'T HAVE STOCK IN THE FIRST PLACE (THEY OUTRIGHT LIED! :dammit: :bs: :frag: :cussing: :shakes: :soap: :cord: :slapass: :grr: :upset: ) They cancelled after I called on the phone and they confessed.
Last time I try ZZF.
Called monarch this evening after and they said they had about 200 (-1 for me :D), should be here next week.
mikee u should have just gotten it from monarch in the first place... hehe. they rock. except when the f'ed me on the rma of my cpu when it blew up for no reason.
Trans am, never owning an msi, i vowed to never own one after seeing all those boards go up in flames. But he we all are clamoring for msi boards. its funny stuff. This board better work and better not blow up or im gonna shove it up the butt of the owner of msi!
monarch computers have the worst customer service . If you want quality and satisfaction go Newegg.
Monarch sucks period. I ordered my athlon fx55 from newegg monday night! and it got shipped the same day in california . Im on the east cost too. Anyway i got my chip today! However monarch screwed me with 2 day from atlanta ga to savannah georgia in 2 day air shipping . I will not be recieving my board until friday now. They suck period. I should open up my own computer buisness and note all computer lables i.e steppings and everything and have good customer service lol.
oh i did fedex saver shipping which was free from newegg.
monarch sucks!
monarch is in Ga, so us Californians save $75 from buying "out of state" on an fx55
C
So is the msi all that? is it the "DFI" for 939? Everytime I see an outstanding oc on 939 it's 9 times out of 10 done on the msi neo2. So I figured it's worth checking out. I have all this tccd, ddr booster, (oczvx on the way) and 2 winnies from 41 ready to go but no board to try them on!!!! You can imagine what I am going through. Patience...patience...Quote:

And there is no tax. If i spend 900 dollars over at new egg i get raped on the tax. Its the main reason i dont shop at newegg for the most part. The tax just makes it not worth it. I can wait a few days and save myself 50 bucks.
http://images.dr3vil.com/uploads/microcool.JPG Did anybody ever tried to cool their neo2 chipset with aftermarket hsf like the one above and compared with stock msi hsf? What can nvidia do for revision on their nf3 ultra in 2 months window of mass production neo2? Is it a new core design or just over heating problem?
looks like mine lol

I really dont think it will help with the oc. From what I have seen the nb doesnt need more voltage to hit the high htt's, and it isnt limited by cooling. This is mainly due to the fact that the htt is in the cpu and not the nb, and the nb is really not doing as much work as the via board, or any other board for that.
Yeah, but it sure looks cool and uses more power. lol not to mention gets in the way of my 6800gt. seriously, I haven't notice a difference in clocks with the extra chipset volts. I think it's totally just for that reassurance than anything else. Just so I can say, well i didn't hit 2.7 because my chipset was too hot lol.Quote:
