I just ordered my Noisetaker a week or so ago from NewEgg. However, it had this single page flyer update included with the manual. It reads:

Dearest User,
Thanks for choosing Enermax power supply, due to specification updated, we have made engineering change on 535W / 600W power supply to All in One to meet ATX 12V V2.01 / EPS 12V and BTX. Regarding text in the manual has not been updated, therefore, in this sheet we would like to clarify the output cables detail for your reference.

For below 535W / 600W models only
Noisetaker: EG701AX-VE(W)
FMA: EG65P-VE / EG565AX-VE(W) / EG565AX-VE(G)
Coolergiant: EG565AX-VH(W) / EG701AX-VH(W)

Illustrations for O/P Connectors and adaptor come in the accessory kit

It's been like that since I got mine in July. Probably for a while before that too.

Dani, do you mean no cold bug or no cold boot problem? BIG difference but both are VERY appreciated!!

"adjustable drive strenght resistor's" <--what do you think I mean??
..and I know difference between cold BOOT and cold BUG ;)

i thought that the cold BUG was a CPU issue....can you let us laymen know what you mean by "adjustable drive strenght resistor's" and how they prevent the cold bug from happening......

I have a few ideas but I'd better keep them to myself so that I didn't say something stupid :D

For the especially blind people (like me) once more: so does that mean, that on the upcoming Halibut ATI boards, you can put the 90nm A64 CPUs under LN2 and not to worry about cold bug anymore? :banana:

I dont know, I just try to say that The Stilt has tested an ATI Crossfire reference mobo..

If I dont remember very wrong, The Stilt tested an CPU with cold bug and it did'nt OC at all with, hmm, cascade? CO2? LN2?
Then he tested this ATI CF mobo and same thing, hard cold bug, but in BIOS he found "adjustable drive strenght resistor's" (I dont know if it writes/translates like that) and CPU OC like hell after that "found"
No cold bug :)

That's why I asked if someone know if DFI's crossfire mobo has these adjustable resisance's optios in BIOS, if they have so I think cold bug is history :fact:

have you got a link for this review

Interesting, so it was about more voltage to the mem controller in the end....

It's tough to imagine that a simple change in resistance could overcome it completely though--but I'll take whatever it's got :D

I emailed DFI regarding their Expert mobo and this is the response I received.

Dear Customer
Thank you for your attention on the press release of our new DFI expert motherboard. First of all, we must say DFI has long term good relationships with both onboard RAID manufacturers; it is difficult to compare both main stream onboard RAID chipset manufacturers. Because both manufacturers provide good onboard RAID solution to end users. However if you really want us to come out with an answer, one of the main reasons we are choosing Silicon Image Sil 3114 chip on our NF4 series is because it carries what we think, a "better" onboard RAID solution for our customers. If we compare Silicon Image Sil 3114 chip with Promise Technology R20378 RAID controller, clearly you can find both controllers come with RAID 0, 1, 0+1. However Silicon Image Sil 3114 chip comes with an extra (software) RAID 5.
This value added function has its market popularity, you can find this chipset
not only used on our DFI NF4 series but also many well known motherboard
manufacturers (correlated information can be easily found by using any searching engine on the Internet). We understand there are varies reasons you can have in mind to believe Promise Technology has better onboard RAID controllers, we respect you opnions, you opnions are important to us. However our products have its missions to satisfy market's demands as well as bring the best value and quality to our customer. Use Silicon Image Sil 3114 chip on our DFI NF4 series and products in the near future is a better solution to our customers.

To find more the information about Silicon Image Sil 3114 chip, please visit
its official website: http://www.siliconimage.com

We hope to gain more understand to our customers who care about our
latest products development so much just like you by sharing our points of view and how we always insist on provide best value and quality to our dear
customers. Please write to us if there are more opinions you would like to share with us. We will be more than keep our ears wild open to listen to your valuable opnions.

I don't know if you guys/gals already knew this or not but I thought that it would be informative.

Thanks.

Very informative, though not informative enough to tell us exactly when they're gonna hit the shelves!!!! I've heard Oct 15th but I don't think that's concrete.

You're welcome. I tried to get more info from them but that's all they sent me. :( I'm sure the Ultra-d's are good but with so many people saying that they're having problems it's kinda making me rethink...... I hope the expert has fixed it's issues. Althought I would have been really happy if DFI would have use the promise chipset. I guess you can't win em' all. :banana:

Someone let us know as soon as any reviews of this board are found please :)

judging by the picture does anything think you would be able to fit a Swiftech MCX-159 on the northbridge for cooling? I have one here from my Nf2 board that I would love to use again if it would fit. A copper variant is available now as well.
