[coolaler's result]DFI Lanparty UT NF590 SLI INTEL

[revenant]

word around the camp fire is that the 590 chipset is just a poor OCer with the conroe.. I think the fsb tops out around 350 max. not sure about am2 cpus.. maybe with later bios revisions this will improve, but popular lore suggests it's just a limitation of the chipset.. if you want to play with extreme OCing on your conroe get a 975X chipset mobo..

well i am truly saddened. i was very VERY much hoping DFI would really REALLY pull this one out of their arse.

and its not just about nvidia its also about DFI's ongoing bad blood with Intel...

well i guess we are all gunna have to just wait around and see what ATI has hiding in the closet.

Yea, no max FSB.

[nooh]

i think this is going to change , the price on the 590 boards are a fair bit which makes me think that they will not have the c19 chip , lets keep our fingers crossed.

LDT was what AMD's name for hypertransport originally was, they only renamed it to hypertransport after intel pulled out PCI Expess out of the bag.

It means Lightning Data Transport and i can guarantee there isn't any Hypertransport on this board. It's just a dead option from NForce thats all. Won't work

hello

any idea of date for commercial release?

[Rieper]

Too bad nVidia won't do C55 until Q1 07. I guess Conroe owners will stick with ASUS P5B Deluxe until nVidia gets off their collective arses and releases c55 boards.

Saw that as well but also looks like ATI's RD600 should be out by beginning of october (if rumors are true). My question is what is wrong w/ Nvidia, did they collectively screw up or what? It's NOT like conroe was a surprise to them (heck intel was talking up a storm on it since the beginning of the year) and they even had a sample board in June. Now they have left the market to Intel & ATI, methinks someone high-up should be fired or at least not get their 'bonus' this year.

This looks like it could be official http://www.pcmoddingmy.com/news.php?item.1812

DFI Cancels The Highly Anticipated LANParty UT nF590 SLI Intel Edition

We had a little chat with DFI this evening and they informed us that their highly anticipated LANParty UT nF590SLI-T2R/G motherboard has been officially canceled. It seems that DFI had decided to discontinue the motherboard before it was even released. Apparently, DFI is not very happy with NVIDIA's C19 chipset which resulted in poor overclocking...

Nevertheless, DFI is currently working on the newer NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI Intel Edition C55 chipset and the motherboard has been rescheduled from 2007 to Q4 2006. We can expect a brand new DFI Intel Edition SLI motherboard within 2 to 3 months time and we were told that DFI is putting their main focus in this project.
