For the record
The board is being released, i should have one this week as will DFI support staff for debugging. After that reviewers will follow.
DFI street has rules, how Angry enforces them is upto him but I will say you follow the rules you have no issues...simple fact...any more post bashing DFI street go straight to trash if I see them so be warned!!
I will try and get more info from LP USA to put your minds at rest.

You follow the rules and you will NOT have a hard time on there; trust me!
Retail i have no idea, final PCB was last week, boards should be in production now.
As I said I will try and get more soon.

im excited!
I'm with Tony, people forget is primarily a DFI tech support forum, letting people run loose without having rules causes a lot of needless posts while people help to try and solve the issue. They are not the marketing section of DFI, that's handled how DFI sees fit, working in tech is a seperate concern, the last thing you need is false hope being given to users before a board is released then have floods of emails requesting rma's due to some kind of miracle overclock not taking place. Further most people that are noobs to dfi boards, and overclocking with them can get great help at that site, at xs the majority are seasoned people who know their way around a bios or two. Testing done here by users on behalf of companies who supply them boards is different, as the needs of the users are not as typical as joe average, so simple screenshots of pi a few 3dmarks and a few bios voltage shots often suffice. The street is primarily for people who are stuck on hardware choices or can't get certain ram to work or need to check the database for overclock help. The more frequent users at the street have helped make it a lot more than just a database, follow the rules and you'll see. We need to realise that we can't treat every forum the same, each has it's use.
Back on topic, I'm hope we'll be seing this board retail by the end of the month, I think DFi has done it's work right and got the right people testing the board before release to help iron out any hard glitches.

I have been excited for 9 months, now I'm just waiting, in a trance..
Thanks Tony, people are just curious and anxious, being left in the dark just plain stinks for some.
This month should be quite interesting with the release of Nvidia's 680i boards, 8800GTX's, DFI's RD600, Intel's Quad Extreme Chips and the finalization of Microsoft's Vista. Although, I still don't believe ATI's claim that the R600 is ready and just waiting for the release of Vista Retail. How can "DAAMIT" just stand there while Nvidia beats the bloody crap out of them for nearly 2 months? Funny, or just plain lies...
Thank's Tony, that was the "simple" answer i think everyone interseted in this board was looking for....:woot:
That's very good news. Thanks for the heads up Tony! :)
They do seem to have no concept of PR. No wonder Asus is dominating.
Here's what I want to know: Since nobody has one of these boards even this late in the game, on what basis does everyone think that this is such a great mobo? :confused: Is there any way to know or is this just an article of faith? :confused:
I still have my LanParty 775/875 - not sure what the hell to do with it since my 560J fried.

Thanks Tony & show NO mercy to Flamers @ DFI Street. Alot of forums could do with looking at the way DFI Street manage their slot. I'd rate DFI as a forum for the more Mature & their LP Series of boards are Second to none. These two credentials say it all, ..."E'nuff said."
It's gotta be 3 months waiting for me now & i'm sure, as well as others, ...."We wont be dissapointed!" :D
i have been a dfi user for a few years, and i love all the tweaking options that the LP boards usually have. So, if this board is anything like what they have made in the past, i am sure it will be worth the wait. I will definately be buying one as soon as it hits retail.
....and the guys on dfi-street are my friends and give excellent support, whenever i have needed it....
...a shout out to Tony for setting the record straight!
:D @Tony:
May the power be with You............:lsfight:
I am a member at DFI street and made as sig as per the rules...I never had any issues and in fact , I have been helped alot over there when I first got my DFI SLI-DR
I am looking forward to there new mobo..as I need something for this e6600 L628A266 sitting on my desk
Same for me, same board even & same sh1t with E6600 sitting on desk! ;)Quote:
