As long as the PCB is blue, or maybe black, I'll take one. ;) :D Anyone want a KV8 Pro? CHEEP? :rolleyes: :D
Blue belongs to Shuttle, and I think Soyo likes black.. I say stick with red ;)
Heh, if it runs like Opp's and bigtoe's, I don't care if it's pink, lol. :D I thought red was a MSI thing? Never had much luck with them. :stick: ;)
Red has been MSI, Abit, and DFI now I think.
I honestly don't give a $ h!t what color it is. No window for me!
bigtoe...
will they do a good job of releasing bioses for this board though?
they did crap for the infinity/lanparty but it survived due to all the beta's that were released by people...
Who do you think wwas releasing the beta bios files in the first place?...DFI
I see a lot of bios files with swapped romsip tables from one beta to the next, the romsips were all written by DFI in the first place though.
Im sure we will see good bios support on this board as it is clearly designed for overclocking.
Yeah... O.Wu is the head engineer for this board ;)Quote:

Bigtoe,
so when is OCZ going to release some "PC6400 EL" to go with this board?! :D
great :)
i need a hint....
i've got a lucky cpu (A64 3200+ @ 2450Mhz with only 1.375v RS, liquid cooled...).
I'm waiting for the A64 kit for my prometeia mach 2 and in this way i would buy the best motherboard on the market (for A64 socket 754).
Today my mb is Epox 8HDA3+ (i also had Aopen AK86-L and Aopen AK89 Max) but i can't rich good results with it.
So i need a new motherboard. I read all the posts and i'm very interested in DFI's product.
I found Chaintec NF3 250 (255Mhz with 4X and 325Mhz with 3X) but i don't know what to do...
any hint? :)
P.S. sorry for my English.....
your english is fine, in fact, better than some where English is the mother tongue.
just be patient, DFI is rolling out their new motheboard sometime in the next two to three weeks. With an OCZ ram clocker module and the features already on the board, it is ready to go out of the box voltage wise.
of course, the crazies will tweak it even more.
lets hope the reference boards features and clockabilites remain the same for the retail product.
i will be setting one up on my prommie soon too, just waiting for that motherboard to be issued.

Thank you :)Quote:

it's very kind of you :)
i'll wait for this motherboard...i want to spend my money for the best compromise on the market (quality/price).
I'm very astonished :eek: ...excellent results :)
P.S. here, in Italy, we can buy hardware weeks and weeks after the Americans. Imagine that X800XT and 6800 Ultra aren't available here :(
@ OPP and bigtoe: Is there an ETA for hitting the shelves for this S754 DFI? thx. :)
what I want to see is the Socket 939 Version. Then I can really see what the 3500+ can do :toast:

[irony]
erm, for which price ?
500$ per 512MB-stick ? :rolleyes:
[/irony]
I hope you mean the normal people will tweak it more and the crazy won't? :D You would have to be crazy not to crank this one up! :toast:Quote:

man I can't wait to get this board. Will be lot's of fun. Also happy the booster works.
does someone know (maybe bigtoe :D) at which price-region the boards will be :)
I would think price wise you will be looking at about the same as the NF2 lanparty, maybe a touch more.
I heard mid to late Aug for release although it could come sooner.
Regards ram that can do ddr600+ with low latency...we are pushing to make DDR500 and DDR533 a reality and with JEDEC now passing(or just about to) ddr500 at 3-4-4-8 we are part the way there.As more manufacturers move to DDR500 IC's we will find ways to tweak the latency down and increase the speed.
Remember OCZ were the first to offer mainstream modules that were all tested to ddr500 speeds with the 3700Gold rev1 which was released over a year ago now, our new 4000gold rev2 is capable of hitting ddr533 with 2.5-3-3 latency at 2.7Vdimm or lower so I can't see it being long till we see mainstream modules doing 2.5-2-2 or close to this at those speeds.
Wouldn't you think Intel would see this and tweak the 915 chipset to take advantage of these super fast dimms instead of intentionally crippling it.
DDR500+ 2.5-2-2 with 2.7v... :slobber:Quote:

All the modules (OCZ PC4000 Gold rev 2.0) could reach these results? (533Mhz with 2.5-3-3 ad 2.7v)Quote:

or this is limited to lucky modules?
thank you :)
As far as I know the bulk of them should do this speed. Also please remember the modules clock better on Intel 875 boards etc but I have been told these do VERY well on A64 and NF2 aparantly even in 512 configs.Quote:

did i get that right ?
JEDEC is going to standazise (lol, what a word :banana: ) DDR500 ?
is this official ?
Hm, it looks like this thread moves away from its original topic... however, 2 questions, bigtoe:Quote:

1) do you have any information, is the PC4000DDR rev2.0 already available in retail channels in Europe?
2) are these modules also using some Hynix IC's... and what about them responding to higher voltage? ;)
I will create a new thread for the new 4000gold rev2..lets keep this one for the dfi board ;)
