The DFI 965-s DARK wait thread.

[GMX]

They made their decision that they are certianly not importing 965s? That's a load of . Mass mail HQ, about BRONET. Suckers....

[erwinz]

hey guys.. any annoying buzzz or noise when pushing your FSB????

[Nephilim]

aw you guys are so lucky... The only aussie distributor for DFI is only getting the 680i, not the 965 infinity

MTD and BRONET are both Direct DFI importers, the former tends to get the infinity boards.

These help.



I remember someone hot glue'n the buzzing coil on old school asus P4C800's i think

I've got your typical RAM/NB buzz when moving the mouse wheel/scrolling a page, but it can't be heard from more than a foot or two away. The PSU's got a noise, but I think it's the fan. It's on the desk wo/ a case and nothing's bothering me at all. That's more than I can say for the Commando!

well i'm having such fun with the P965-S i thought i'd just post quickly that i have mine pretty untweaked but booting and prime stable at 500fsb.
please no *****ing at the unoptimised nature of this run...
i havn't had any time to tighten timings or lower volts yet.
the point is this board is capable of 500fsb 24/7 and from boot.

edit: loaded vcore measured reads about 0.07 below bios set voltage...i didn't measure idle yet.
and at 2.2vdimm set in the bios, real measured on an empty ram slot vdimm overvolted to 2.27
/edit

also this was done with an e6600 modded to 333fsb
prior to the mod i couldn't do 500fsb even through 1M...after the mod i have seen 527fsb 1M
i'm sure the board is capable of more without the mod since others have seen 540fsb with no mods and 266fsb cpu's...its just my cpu wasn't happy at 500 till the mod was done.
but i do not recommend the 333fsb pinmod for this board yet as i had a rough time booting with much of my ram after the mod.
that is why this bench was done with Team Elite DDR800 5-5-5 ProMOS IC's

config: infinity P965-S - e6600 :: 2x 1gb team elite 800 :: sparkle 512mb 7900gt 650/800 :: raptor - 35gb :: aopen 700watts

Anyone having the new 4/11 BIOS: please upload and post a link.

Jesus, that page looks like its from 1996.

wow looks like dfi got rid of directory browsing.

http://www.dfi.com.tw/Upload/BIOS/I96PD411.zip
just change the date to that of new bios. guess now we have to crawl with brute force and date

[Jodiuh]

I have 2 links for you guys.

I have the DFI DARK.
I do not have the DFI DARK.

[ziddey]

lol nice video i'm excited

[sup3rfly]

hey guys just some warning fo u guys....2 of my friends were having problem with the beta bios.... the 0402 ones.... the latest (0411) one was fine according to them.... from their experience the beta bios clock higher than the initial bios....

so the hr-05 wont fit with a tunqi NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Dark79]

so the hr-05 wont fit with a tunqi NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I have the Tuniq tower and an HR-05 mounted together. The NB/CPU socket setup is the same as on the Infinity 975x which also worked with the Tuniq and HR-05. They do touch, but I didn't notice any pressure from pushing.

http://www.diy-street.com/forum/showthread.php?t=74961

That's a link to a thread with a pic of the 2 on the 975x. If you're comfortable with that, then I say go for it. Though it probably wouldn't hurt to put some fishing line to hold the top of the tuniq a little higher to keep from gravity pulling it down on the HR-05.

Either way, it works for me fine so far.

[awhir]

thanks man much appricated looks like i will be going for a hr-05 and tunqi

[Dark79]

Turns out you will need to use something to hold up the Tuniq a bit as gravity does cause it to push on the HR-05 a bit. Once I did that, my NB temps dropped quite a bit (from 45 to 27). Processor temps were unaffected.

[awhir]

hw do you mean hold up the nb???

[Dark79]

hw do you mean hold up the nb???

Not the NB, the Tuniq. I used some fishing wire to hold the heatsink level since even after tightening the thumbscrews all the way, it leans down a little, so it does push a little bit on the HR-05. If I get a chance, I'll open my case and snap a pic.

[awhir]

that would be grea m8

I have serious problem with this board. It is new, but not working, if i push the Power button, board is getting in endless restart loop ... no post, nothing, only restart after restart ...

It is normal and i am doing something wrong? Or RMA? I ve tested TWO memories, TWO CPUs, TWO GFX and the same result ...

[s e t h]

i got that endless loop once from memory compatibility when using modded 333fsb e6600.
my solution is some 1.9 volt ram like promos

@flytek you deserve ur own thread!!
