    How must i change the nb-multi in the BIOS? It looks like this -> link

    In windows AOD says "9x". But that number doesn't match with any BIOS setting. ???

    thnx
    Brother, this is something you'll need to get used to, unfortunately.
    This is the sound of electronic coils that are "weeping" when current is passing trough them. Manufacturers are using shielded coils to prevent this annoying effect, but DFI (Sapphire) opted to place two big ones by the DIMM's, and they' didn't used shielded
    When you have silent machine, no additional fans, you can clearly hear this sound, and for people like you and me this sound is nerve eater!

    Well maybe, but if no Phenom can ever do 3.6ghz stable then i will go with Intel....

    Intel is the smart way to go...

    Ummmmmmmmm...............OK Happy Birthday man

    You will not see 3.6ghz on Phenom not for a while But both platforms have there ups and downs Intel right now has the computational Power and Overclocking Head Room but has that pesky High Latency thing going on.

    For the Overclocker other than preference AMD brings nothing to the table!


    Thats about being as honest and realistic as it gets but..........AMD.....is not that far behind with even there outdated Revamped AM2 6400+ JUST LOOK AT Encoding results I posted in my thread between the 6400+ BE and Q6600 G0 stock Clocks AMD BEATS Intel Quad Core! 3500MHZ 6400+ Vs Q6600 @ 3.55GHZ OGG Intel wins by 22 Seconds theres not that much of a difference man!

    What do you think about the latest R7LDC11 BIOS?

    Beware of the earlier 4.0x.xxx version Everests if you have this board!! It simply killed my Phenom 9500 CPU when I started it accidentally. Now I'm using my spare Sempron 2800+ and I'm waiting for RMA.

    What are you missing?

    It's already a known issue by the Everest's developers. The earlier Everests crash some new/modern DFI boards during the SMBus scan, because they have a different voltage regulator.

    Now when I start the 4.00.976 Everest, it shuts down my computer, and after that I have to switch off and on my PSU because it can't start until that.

    Hmmmmm

    No, I did not know that, I don't even know what "old" version of Everest I have, but it's old!!
    Luckily I'm still using an Ultra-D, and it's so old it doesn't bother it!!

    Thanks

    Exclamation LAN port "failure" during prolonged downloading

    Hi y'all

    Has anyone experienced a problem with the dual gigabit ports where one port, during a rather prolonged download (nero update), the port just appears to stop working?

    This happened to me a few minutes ago. The cable is fine, and there is nothing wrong with the ports on the ADSL router. I switched ports leaving the cable plugged into the PC, but no joi. I then left the cable in the original port on the Router, but changed the network on the PC et voila! All was working again. That suggests the problem is the with the PC network port.
    This happened after I had downloaded about 180MB of the 322MB update.
    Anyone experience anything similar?

    I must admit, this DFI board is proving to be a bit of a pain in the butt.

    Hi guys, anyone knows if Sapphire PURE CROSSFIRE 790FX LANPARTY has the same bios of DFI "original" Lanparty?

    There's no chance to find DFI 790FX boards in Italy, but Sapphire 790FX is easy...

    Will next Oscar bios work?



    ps.
    R7LDC11 is good?
