DFI LANparty DK P45-T2RS/T3RS (Intel P45) - News|Info|Results

[giraffen]

Dunno, not my pic.
Got it from a contact at DFI.
I have an E8200, will load the bios and update soon.
As far as i know, the settings for the above are:
NB@1.3V
memory at 333/667 2.3v
E8400@ 1.35v
PLL@ 1.75v
No changes for the rest

Please update soon as possible. I´ve got the board yesterday, but if bios still sucks i´ll send it back

[Jupiler]

Mine is going back on monday, I'm not gonna waste my time waiting another 1-2-3 weeks before they have fixed the problems.

[Pika007]

I think my OCZ Powerstream 520w is about to die, it's making wierd noises although the pc is in rest state
More updates either when i discover wtf is wrong with my psu or when i succeed overclocking to 500mhz fsb or above
........Please don't die on me, my trusty PSU

any news when the JRs will be out?

[disruptfam]

hows cf perf on this board?

hows cf perf on this board?

I don't know anyone who testet it, but here is a comparison of X48 vs. P45:

Spoke to DFI last night about the DK P45 and they have a new BIOS on the way for existing owners that fixes the FSB limitations, but they have also done some tweaks to the design.

That's all the details I have at the moment

that's good to hear...it's been some time since DFI released a new bios...for any board as a matter of fact

That doesn't mean work isn't proceeding forward. Hardly a day goes by that we don't receive an updated BIOS for the X48 T3R. I'm sure the same is being done for this board.

still waiting on new bioses for x38 n x48

[Sauron_Vie]

anyone played with a qx on this board ?

[mrcape]

I really feel for DFI engineers under pressure to keep up with the insane release cycles of chipsets. It's like one after the other bam bam bam, p35, x38, x48, p45... Yikes!

The PR/Sales department must be pounding the table to get the new chipsets released while the end users are dying for support. It's really hard on the engineers stuck in the middle.

I agree with you on that. Sometimes DFI is the last to make it to the field with a new chipset release and I THOUGHT it was because their engineers were working out the kinks. After using the X38-T3R, I no longer believe that because it's the worst board I've owned in a long long time. Hopefully this P45 is better.

i know...if it's one thing that DFI engineers would rather be doing, it's perfecting the BIOS...

[NupSiHoVa]

Still sitting and waiting for the P45 DK bios that will unleash OC on this board

have you tried a gigabut board lately

[Clunk]

Quick update.

The new BIOS is coming today and it should apparently put the performance on a par with Asus and Gigabyte.

That's all I know

[fireice2]

woot! thats great news!

[Clunk]

Here you go

[dz`]

Does anyone know if true-120 pointed towards rear exhaust fan will fit on this board? or will it contact nb hsf? please post any new results with new beta bios

[emoners]

ey JR P45-T3RS is on MotherboardPro

[NupSiHoVa]

So far stable....letting it run for a few hours. Still dissappointing, volts to hit FSB. 1,4V ist prett high i'd say for a 45nm chipset.

Musta naman kababayan

[Clunk]

That looks more like it Voltages look good too

[NupSiHoVa]

Had to bump the NB Volts up a bit:



and yes, i have a fine chip

[disruptfam]

Thanks for that mate.Yeah cf isn't too good on a p45...

Maybe a x48 will be my board or wait for a x58???

Here is a roadmap:
