"DFI is proudly to announced this great honor from Clunk.org.uk ....."

If they could only bang out a sentence right we'd be set =P

Great work Clunk! I've read all your reviews and settings for a while now and i'm about to start playing with my system again.

hey clunk since ure in dfi's good graces
can u ask frankie etc
1.whats with the ovevolt reading on the vcore..
the x38 didnt have this issue.. atleast the board i tested didnt on the same proc

if it wasnt for that would have rated this board the best board i ever had
till the then maximus se flashed to rampage bios still rocks.
the striker formula 2 is not bad also

My X38 had it, and so did the P35 that I had.

I'm going to have a poke around later and see if it is just the software that is reporting wrong, I will report back with my findings later on tonight hopefully

I will ask DFI for you as well.

another weird issue just cropped up
1:1 500fsb CL4 TRD 7..

it suddenly didnt work and was causing so many failures
heck even cant boot

tried 3 different sticks..
Team Xtreem PC2-6400 CL3's
Team Xtreem PC2-8500 CL5's
OCZ Flex PC2-8500 CL5's

even at 2.4vdimm also no effect

all of this had no probs with the maximus running at 1000mhz CL4 at 4.5ghz!!

it start with some boot manager issue on boot from restart
then it had trouble entering windows
then i reran windows mem diagnostic tool.
it failed in 9%
all of the sticks. from 1 stick to 4 stick config since i have 2 pairs of each with the same batch serials
so had to back it down to 1000mhz 5-5-5-8 TRD 8 rest same as the template 1.5vNB, set 2.00v dimm.
passed 10 passes for Team Xtreem PC2-6400 CL3
2.03vdimm for ther other 2 at 5 passes..

trying to figure out what happened.. it all started after sleep mode last night i booted up.. restarted and just loaded one of the profile i had for 500fsb saved..

till now cant get CL4 to work ..

[cstkl1]

update
heck now even the proven 3.8ghz 400x9 266/667 1000mhz CL4 2.3 also is having failures.. what the hell..

will be reflashing the bios

[Rinaun]

eh u do realize the the amount of NB and ram voltage u going to need at the lowest trd for 333/800 at 500 fsb 1:1..heck i even wont go there unless the latencies are right...

I'm desperately trying every strap, because I'm having troubles even posting with 5-5-5-15-64 trfc at ddr2 1000. I have also tried other straps but no luck. I KNOW its the memory though, as I think auto is setting some of these settings too tight, even though only 4 or so settings are on auto.

If all the sticks are doing it, it sounds like you could have corrupted the CMOS.

A battery out CMOS clear fixed that for me, good luck

Congratz Clunk and thank you....

[C-N]

Well done clunk

Its real nice to see DFI back big time in the UK, I was only moaning a month or so ago that it was imposable to get any DFI in the UK.

Well done DFI

[kosch]

Have been playing with the new parts all day and have my E8200 running at 4Ghz although its not quite stable yet. I think I need to learn and understand some of the more mystic settings in the BIOS.

Very impressed with the new DFI board so far. Havent had to do a manual CMOS reset once yet

[safan80]

just booted the board for the first time and I like my NB temp with my mc30.

[KanGaXx]

i think that this motherboard totaly suck.

i tryed boot with my e8400 ( that can do 620 fsb on commando)
all ok first boot.

450 OK
480 OK
500 FIRST PROBLEM ---> no boot, i tryed 1,65vNB - 1,45 VTT - 1,6 vSB - NB GTL 80 ---> OK BOOT
510 NO BOOT
520 NO BOOT
ecc...
over 500 i puts the chipset on liquid cooling to be more safe, i give em 1,88 vNB - 1,7 vSB - 1,6 vcore - 1,6 VTT!!!!!!!
ram was 400/800 1040mhz 5-5-5-18 2,3v ( crucial pc8500)

OMG

[KanGaXx]

yeah ok. and VNB how much ??

GTL voltage ??
