What is the 4 pin power connector near the chipset fan mounted on the board for?

So what happens if you use both an 24 pin connector ann the 4pin molex :P?

Are you sure? I know you have the board (I think i read that), but in this snippet from the manual I have seen it says.

"Use a power supply that complies with the ATX12V Power Supply
Design Guide Version 1.1. An ATX12V power supply has a standard
24-pin ATX main power connector and a 4-pin +12V power
connector that must be inserted onto CN10 and CN9 connectors
respectively.

The 4-pin +12V power connector enables the delivery of more
+12VDC current to the processor’s Voltage Regulator Module
(VRM).

The HDD-type and FDD-type power connectors are additional
power connectors. If you are using two graphics cards, we
recommend that you plug power cables from your power supply
unit into the two 5V/12V power connectors. This will provide more
stability to the entire system. The system board will still work even if
the additional power connectors are not connected."

I take that it is a HDD or FDD type connector, and therefore doesn't have anything to do with whether the user is using a 20 or 24 pins PSU, but is to do with whether you are using 2 graphics cards?

Sorry if that is wron, I don't really know what a HDD/FDD socket looks like.

I think its better for your PSU, so it doesn't pull so much power from the 24 pin connector...

First, this Jack sign CN1 not CN10 or CN9..

2nd
:) I haven't got Dual VGA so can confirm ur info. My manual don't say anything about it... In my testing, ATX 1.0 ( 20 pin ) need this connector 2 run properly... And with ATX 1.1 ( 24pin ) I get more 0.01v@3.3, 5.0v, 12.0v rail... when connect it with an IDE connetor... Maybe more stable.. :)

you know what i mean - is it able to do fake-sli?

nobody an answer? :(

Yes, DGX fakes SLI on nF4 Ultra...

And one more thing , he said the HTT can run over 400 easily , but he must leave the mem = 100 ( Muskhin LV2 BH-5 )

But overclocking automatically voids your warranty in the first place. If they were REALLY NICE, they would RMA, if they don't, it's well within reason in my opinion. ;)

hm, i asked Kevin and he told me that:

p4z1: i just meant, the fact, if it can does SLI :)

opb: I don't see it can't! ;)

so, it does :)

I must know it once and for all, does all SLI-DR boards comes with A3 chipset?
I saw some 1000HTT, but I don't know if ALL board are A3.
I need to know it for surely so I won't have to fear purchasing some bad unit.

SLI must be A3 and ultra version also uses A3 as I have seen it, unlike Gigabyte...use some A2 for their ultra version(no-additional PWM model) :mad:

yes, DXG only supports 4 monitors but not SLI up to now.. ;)

Great... Now I can purchase it in the very moment it hits the stores...
I love you DFI :toast:

The exact chipset is A3 o447A3...

Can anyone tell me how good the onboard sound is??? I have even tried looking at other DFI boards with the same chip, but no one addresses the sound!

thanks

Would a DFI NF4 Sli-dr be a better overclocker and faster than a DFI NF4 Ultra-d ?? both same right?

Hi! im new to the board, and im wondering how does someone tell if they have an A2 or A3 board? Im trying to decide witch to get, the NEO4 Ultra or the Lanparty Ultra. Is it confirmed that DFI's Ultra board does fake SLI like the NEO4?

Sorry if the questions has come up more then ones.

OK this is the reasoning... now for the REVIEW!!!

Theater-Like Karajan 8-channel Audio Experience

Taking full advantage of Intel's new Azalia audio standard, DFI's proprietary Karajan further eliminates the unwanted noise by embedding the audio codec on a separate daughter card. By isolating the codec into an independent grounding, less interference is produced with other digital grounds on the motherboard. Karajan audio solution allows for crystal clear analog sound output even when other I/O devices are being used.

will the ultra-d be able to make 2 ati cards scale like SLI, but since its not "SLI" which only nvidia has the rights to, can ati come up with some drivers that will make it work???? somthin to think about
