server time must of went wacky on your reply heh

while we have 10% GST and 5% import taxes that probably bring DFI s754 board to AUD$300-320ish but not AUD$420 heh

Will Crucial Ballistix RAM work well on this DFI board? Thinking of getting some pc4000 w/3200+ newcastle

cheers

[GreyBeard]

Crucial Ballistix and OCZ EB are very good matchs for A64 systems.

[trey]

bigtoe, when u said force it too pc3200 speeds, is that all, i was hoping at 250 3-3-2 or 3-2-2. Is that not possible with 2x512?
And do i have to go with 2t or will it maybe work with 1t? Dont really know the differece

i know u talked about it earlier, but i couldnt find it in a 23page long thread

[__TRONIK__]

so will I have to wipe my hard disks clean? I am under raid 0 on the nvidia chip of the chaintech nfoce3 250.
reeealy dont want to start all over jsut a month or so after I got it like I like it. And I dont have the room to move everything temporarily.

[ugp]

That is why I use my parents computer as a slave drive...I have there HDD spilt into two. One part is mine to store everything on. And I have been waiting to hold off on reloading my OS because of this Motherboard. I will be more than happy to reload my OS for this board.

[ugp]

Here is an actual picture from the Manual of the Memory options we have on this board...

[toenexx]

Hrmmm, this may be a silly question but I like people's approval :p

Do you think the CMX1024-3200PRO 1GB DDR400 XMS3200 ProSeries Memory w/Heat will work good with this DFI mobo?

I plan to order the ram and mobo tomorrow

And no I dont want 2x512 b/c further down the road i plan to add another gig for doing computer animation/visual effects.

[ugp]

Well don't plan on getting the DFI is you haven't oredered it yet...there are a limited quanity of them and everyone pretty much already preordered all there is I believe...

But the OCZ EB is doing the best from all the feedback I have gotten on it and that is what I plan to order. I plan to order the 512x2 1GB set myself when I get the money and then I am going to a 80GBx2 Seagate Baracuda RAID 0 set. And then I will be sitting on a sweet machine

[__TRONIK__]

so I am going ot have to wipe my disks in order to run raid on the DFI?, even though my stripes were setup on the same nvidia raid chip?

[ugp]

Well it is best to do so because you are changing to a new motherboard and there will probably be somewhat newer drivers and all...you can swap them out and try it I assume. But whenever you get a new Motherboard it is best to reload the system for best performance.

[toenexx]

well on zipzoomfly u cant even preorder it....as far as i kno

[ugp]

Yeah...apparently you haven't been reading...I posted a thread on this already....go to www.gameve.com and you can preorder them there!!! I swear you f*ucking people need to start reading and research before you post something. I dont spend the time to post this sh*t for no reason!!!!!

I read on another site that someone had managed to change MBs without reinstalling windows. Unfortunately, I do not remember what he did or exactly where I read it (might have been on the MSI forums). So it may be possible. Try posting a new thread, and visiting some other sites. Good luck.

[toenexx]

wrong...ive known gameve.com has had it...but i dont want to order from them u poopy head

Thats pretty stong man...I started this thread to tell you about a motherboard, not for you guys to get all pissy and start flaming.

More info for you all..

New boards have Vagp and higher vdimm options.I will be modding the bios to allow 3.3Vdimm as soon as Oskar sends it to me.

Thanks OPP for the Vagp....

[toenexx]

ive noticed this board is probably going to be the best in overclocking terms, but what about stablability and reliability using stock?

[__TRONIK__]

of what benefit is high vagp? isn't rasing vagp over 1.6 thought to be without benefit at best and dangerous at worst? I have heard of some who have needed 1.6 to get stable for various reasons, but i can't say I have seen anyone benefit from higher, or from rasing the agp bus for that matter. but then, perhaps I am not looking in the right places.

I thinkk we will knwo that when it gets released/. though you might have to read about it elsewhere, I don't think many of us will be running it stock...or anywhere near it

Do you think this is your thread ?
Im sick and tired of you red sig all over the forum with all nonsense about your computer.

I want it to be DFI related and i think 95% of the ppl on this thread agree with me.

3.3 volt should be enough for the EB ram ?
What volt did you run max with the booster in the bench earlier.
What is the volt limit for the EB where you dont gain more from adding more volt.

Thanks for any help bigtoe.

[freestylercs]

Wow, 3,3V
my BH 5 will love it.....

free

did i understand right ?

DFI increases the max vdimm from 3.1V to 3.3V OFFICIALLY ?!

(doesn't care about vagp - my EBs just want voltage....they wanna BUUURRNNNNN )
