    Best DFI Lanparty NFII ultra b bios?

    Hey, just got this board today, and I'm really happy about it

    So far I've done 9,5*254 with plain watercooling (no radiator, just at tank of 70 liters), and a fan over the passive cooled NB


    But wantede to know which bios to use to get even better scores (so far I'm just using the latest official bios....)


    |-|DFI LP nF4 Ultra-D passively cooled chipset|-|
    |-|Winchester 3500+ cooled DD TDX A64 and passive car radiator|-|
    |-|2*512 Corsair PC3500 (BH-5)|-|
    |-|HIS X800XL cooled by zalman VF700-cu @ 5v|-|
    |-|Powered by Tagan 480w PSU|-|

    Best for me is still 12/18. Tried them all.

    Others get better results with one of the other Beta/Alpha BIOS'

    The best bet is to try them one by one 'til you find the best for your rig.

    is there any risks involved in choosing a alpha/beta bios?

    They just aren't supported offically. LOTS of people uses these bioses, problems are rare. Just flash a few. Compare thier performance as not all boards are the same, so there is really no one best bios.

    I've flashed them all, the 2/17 Alpha was touchy but the rest were OK. Remember to reset CMOS after flashing and before booting.

    Ok, I had some MAJOR problems with the 12/18, now using the 31/12 - much better


    With tha 12/18 I would clear cmos, then go into bios, then set it all to standard, and then I got a screen with info on my gfx (only led number 4 showing light)... had to "update" to another bios with a floppydisk....

    Byt now it allright agin with the 31/12

    sofar my highest fsb is 255 mhz, with 1:1 and memory timings: 2-2-2-5 (vmem 3,3)

    The DFI boards all seem to like different BIOS' - which is why it's important to take the time and risk to flash to the one that tests best for you
