And this isn't even the enthusiast version. Yes, there WILL be a LanParty 975X board from DFI that is Conroe-ready.

I wonder how much better it would perform on the Enthusiast version

care to share any details?

Dfi roadmap only show the 975x as Infinity,but it would be awesome to see it as a Lanparty ;p

If it come as a Lanparty,i may consider getting it instead of the R600

the Infinity has always been the same as the Lanparty's for overclockablity AFAIK, they just lack the UV board, and a lot of extras the Lanparty's come with.

not quite. I have had both at the same time. The Lanparty overclocks slightly better, possibly due to the better power support and voltage options. However I don't see the voltage going much higher than this but I think we will be seeing a digital PWM on all future Lanparty boards

Interesting if true.( just kidding FCG) I assume you heard this via sources, if so any word on the RD600 motherboard?

[freecableguy]

LP version is due to be seen late August/early September. Designed by the man himself, Oskar Wu.

[Johnny Bravo]

swish, wait are you talking about the 975x version or the RD600 version? or both

[freecableguy]

RD600 will come first

Cool, I'm gonna trust your Xtreme intel on this one and hang fire on my Conroe build! Was gonna plump for a P5B or P965 Platy, but if an uber DFI board is only 3 months out, I'd rather wait

Cheers,

Sorry to dig this thread up from the dead, but are you absolutely totally 1000% sure about this dude? Don't mean to question your intel, but I literally haven't head ANYONE else mention a 975X Lanparty board, and to the contrary many people have said there will never be one... is Oskar still working on it, or is it only in fact the RD600 and nForce 500 boards that will come out as Lanparty?

i think it's only rd600 and 590 chips.

[killercho]

The motherboard is no use if you cant get hold of a ing Conroe.

Why use 975X when RD600 completely Owns 975X at stock and overclocked and it overclocks farther too

Because RD (wasn't the name RS?) 600 isn't released yet!?!?!

Because I wouldn't touch a PoS AMD (sic) chipset with a 10ft barge pole The main reason I want to move back to Intel is because of their amazingly stable chipsets and drivers.

And "completely owns the 975X at stock" is a horrible over-exaggeration

Not even remotely infact one could even consider it being a touch understated.

ZOMG one extra fps in FEAR, clearly this is total pwnage!!!!111

Man sometimes I think you come up with golden statements like that for the comedy value...

[MaxxxRacer]

the benchmarks dont show much difference between the two, but the Intel chipset sure does hold a commanding lead in the memory speed. You would think the extra bandwidth would allow for higher benchmarks, but clearly that isnt the case. I wonder whats up.

[VulgarHandle]

well, the number's Sumanji gathered aren't from the final version, the only part that the CURRENT version tested that has problems is the ASync memory, which shows in Everest, ever think maybe nn saw something else, maybe even did his own testing, that he can't release info on? funny how most of what he does say comes true....yet you all seem to only pick and choose what info he gives out, u like...and stuff from fugger/fcg/etc are word of god(not that anything they've said aren't true)

Although there are many ways to improve performance, ATI's goal is to push for higher CLK running in SYNC with the Memory. Some of the other methods include FSB/HTT Link, Memory Freq (via higher FSB/HTT or RAM divider), Memory timings, overclocking the PCIe bus and video cards.

According to information we gathered, the final revision will enhance ASync memory. Currently, with a similarly configured i975X system, the ATi RD600 performance is better due to Xpress Route which is more efficient than then Dual PCIex8.

[Sumanji]

Well we'll come back to this thread in a few months and see...

But really, all this is totally irrelevant considering the thread is about 975X boards. All I want to know is if there is a LANParty version coming out or not!

i think nn is commenting on the overclocking performance and not so much the chipset performance.
