    Exclamation DFI NF4: Your board or memory been killed?

    UPDATED! Users, PLEASE answer the questions below or your vote in the poll is bascally useless! If there is a problem, we need to find out why and correct the issue as soon as possible. your settings and hardware has a huge effect on the amount of time it will take. thus, you NEED to answer the questions!

    There seems to be a lot of talk about the 5v rail memory option kill motherboards and ram.

    For the sake of overclocking man kind, PLEASE answer the poll then post in the thread your specs.

    Here is what we need to know:

    1) Were you using the 5v rail when the memory died?
    2) Did it kill the board also?
    3) What bios were you on?
    4) What RAM were you using and in what slots?
    5) What voltage were you running?
    6) Is this your only board that you use for 24/7 use or is it used only for benching? IMPORTANT!
    7) Did you cool the ram and the upper right corner of the board with some fans?
    8) What powersupply were you using?
    9) What bios settings were set? (list all you can...more the better)
    10) What is the serial number of the board?
    11) Was the board made in Taiwan or China?
    12) What method did you use to switch to the 5v rail?
    13) Did you have settings in CMOS Reloaded?

    This info will be VERY useful to MANY people, not only end user but also at DFI to help resolve the issue if there is one.

    Please do you best to answer all questions to the best of your ability.

    You may want to refer to this thread for future updates on what to do. Untill then, I would recommend using the 3.3v jumper with a tweaked 3.3v rail.

    Thank you all,
    Jordan
