Great board, great review!

[twwen2]

Great review ZoLKoRn! I can't wait for mine to arrive

[MomijiTMO]

Your floppy disc looks fubar rofl

[twwen2]

Your floppy disc looks fubar rofl

Huh? You got the right thread my friend?

[MomijiTMO]

The sliding protector on the disc looks a tad bent.

Anyhoo we all know this mobo is awesome. Thanks for the photos and review!

[twwen2]

Edit: Now i see it. Ouch i hope it didn't come like that!

Hey ZoLKoRn, how do you think the 4-phase PWM will cope with a 45nm quad? I've seen some nice results but can't help thinking that a few extra phases might be safer?

[PaRn ssR]

m-ATX hit ATX

[Alex-Ro]

So small and such a beast,gg DFI

[N00B]

best micro-atx mobo ever?

[Lestat]

come on man dual core clocking is easy, anything can clock a dual core decently.
its quad cores thats hard (past 450mhz)

we wanna see some quad clocking.

QUAD QUAD QUAD QUAD,, come everyone chant with me.. QUAD QUAD QUAD QUAD

oh.. great OC results man.
it makes the board seam more worth its price. but its still kind of pricey.

[Nanometer]

Quad numbers along with dual 4870 x2 cards would be nice

[Solarfall]

if i had a micro atx case i would defineatly get this board its such a beast from what i have seen..
great job with the review ZoLKoRn
i have a request. could you show us some bios screenies too ??

[Oliver]

Good start zolkorn and the 4870x2s really sit tight uh

Its sweet the keep using the nb/hp system with removal of nb cooler without breaking warranty, its awesome style

Looking forward to ln2 action

[evil-98]

quad numbers would be nice, i have a JP LP P45-T2RS myself with a Q9550 but i cant figure out how to do a ".5" multiplier under bios

have you tried a ".5" multiplier yet? thanks in advanced

[ZoLKoRn]

Thank you to all

well i thought on 4phase PWM it will not problem with 45nm Quad but however i can't confirm is it will 100%

so waiting a moment now it on test base again with QX9650 and i'll come update

I'll coming update soon for Quad

Not problem m8 for bios screenies

Yes on the JR P45 it can setting to .5x multiplier

[Lestat]

sweet Zolk, do let us know how the quads clock.

[Utnorris]

Great work. Sub'd.

[Lestat]

haven't even tried stressing it yet for max FSB
this was a simple setting i just threw in the bios.
OCCT stable
vdroop puts me at around 1.28v
so 0.03v droop is very nice with the limited stage voltage control it has.




i was able to boot and OCCT for 2 minutes at 465 FSB. OCCT gave me an Error 1 (what ever that means.) at 1.55 NB, 1.35 FSB VTT, and 3.60v Clockgen
not sure what i need to adjust to make it stable, but this is VERY similar to what i have seen most full size ATX boards do with quads.
once you get above 450~460 FSB things get really sketchy on a quad and take usually alot of tweaking.

there is also an Advanced Bios Tweaking if you hit F9 on the main bios page, this opens up all the clock Skew controls and tons of ram stuff which i am not even going to touch.

It’s nice to see DFI joining back in with some enthusiast level products.

the latest 09/01/2008 bios implements VCORE DROOP COMPENSATION!!!!
DISABLE IT to get ZERO droop
WOOT!!!

it still isnt a very good board for ME. even with an E8500 which can run 4.7ghz i cant even boot past 450mhz FSB no matter what i do.

we've asked several times for people to post their bios settings, does no one want to share ?

[Eldonko]

Ah nice, they just posted 09/01/2008, I have been using 09/12/2008 beta, must be the final of it since it also has the vdroop option. There is still .03v droop but that is normal. Will give 09/01/08 a try this eve.

You are going to have to tweek the F9 settings to boot at high FSB, it seriously took me 3 weeks of work to get anything out of this thing and everyone's optimal settings are totally different (even with the same CPU/mem). Mess with GTL first and then move to CPU and mem skews.

Nice review! And nice board...I really like it, can you say if can run 500fsb stable w/ no increase in nb core with E8400? On air of course..and no active cooling

there is ZERO vdroop if you set the vcore droop setting to disable, if you leave it enabled, like the asus mobo's the vdroop is normal.


and i will ask again please someone post their bios settings.
the F9 settings are totally wako, way different than other boards i have seen and settings i have never had to mess with to get other boards to boot up at 500+ fsb.

someone throw this ol dog a bone here please.
