Wow, that OCZ phase unit is very cool looking. Will they come in black? :off:

So what's with the 1.6v vcore limitation on this board? :mad:

wow, thnx for the info Tony, can't wait for your guide for this board ;)

@uclajd: it's not 1.6V limit, you can ad more volts through % options, tony posted: 1.6+121.25%
if I calculated correctly that makes 1.94V as max for the CPU, I think this is enough even for kingip, hipro and the lot :D

must be annoying when you can "only" fit 3 brand new top of the range engineering samples of cutting edge technology. :rolleyes:

Anyhow the commando should be a great addition, hoping other manufacturers will follow suit ;)

Guys

I asked DFI to make sure Travis and Robert received boards so that they can look at support issues before they post on the street. Bingo13 and myself have a board.

We are waiting for DFI to release us to post, we should be posting bios shots late Monday all being well and you should see a preview Weds we hope.

Regards the ram, it performs at the speed you set, whether async or sync it does not matter.

When the board is available in stores (and not just backordered like some vendors list it now), or until Travis/Robert have an official report posted there; whichever comes first. ;)

I'm sure we'll have a pretty good overclocking thread up like we did for the Infinity (big thanks Raja!), though I suspect this will be much easier to play with right off the bat.

Looking forward to your findings Tony, as well as any helpful hints you have to get people up and running. :)

I just hope newegg will have them in stock this friday and they don't charge an insane price for them. Finally, I can finish my build.:)

Sounds like a good chance to compensate the clock per clock performance vs 975X/965P/680i :)

We are living in exciting times :D I've been waiting to finish my build for months now. I always planned to hold out for the the RD600 and it seems it has been worth it. To bad money comes in short supply around XMAS :(

Hi Tony,

Do all voltages have the percentage option available to them? Especially VTT?

Thanks :)

Maybe this is slighty Off-Topic, but i'd like to know the following.

The Inq posted this (Asus preps RD600) about a month ago. Still, I haven't heard anything about it, not even if it's cancelled or not.

But, The Inq posted this (RD600 will be AMD's last chipset for Intel) last Friday and it says this.

DFI is the only company that appears to be brave enough to make an RD600 board.

Does this mean there will not be an Asus RD600? Is it coming or not? Does anybody know anything about it? :confused:

Keep on coming with that info Tony, we love it! :toast:
