Say hello to Eguy's new mainboard, DFI SLI-DR EXPERT

http://www.bit-tech.net/news/2005/10/03/dfi_nf4_sli-dr_expert_pictured/

GAYSUS = :0wned: had enough of my piece of shit motherboard

comes out next week

notice the 3 pci slots and no sli jumper

http://www.dfi.com.tw/Product/xx_product_spec_details_r_us.jsp?PAGE_TYPE=US&PRODUCT_ID=3872&SITE=NA

too bad it only has sli 8x8 and not the new 16x16

 

[ionicle_old]

it looks like a vamped up version of mine, the only difference i can see, aside from the rearangement is that there aint no molex power connector for it....nor is tere a PSU 4 pin either...there might b maybe i just cant see em...but is it SLI? unlike mine

 

[FragTek]

Verrrry sweet... You know what the coolest part about it is? The increased gap between the 2 vid card I think it may allow for the use of a pair of DD NV68/78 water blocks like on the Asus. Woohoo! And 3 PCI sl0ts = teh r0x0rage. I may have to get me one of these as well, looks wickedsick!!

 

[Eguy]

I almost shit my pants when I saw this gem, new mobo + ram = next week

 

[ionicle_old]

what new ram are you gettin?

 

[|3ourne]

it has the 8 pin power connector (the black connector right about the 24 pin psu slot ) . It uses better vdimm and vtt regulation. same 4V vdimm but its more stable so no cold boot issues. Also now it will be easier to mount an aftermarket chipset fan. Think of this as a really cleaned up version of DFI SLI-D .

 

[OV3RCLOCK3R]

Looks nice and i may upgrade once i have paid off my debt

 

[Raging]

nice mobo eguy

Yeah if I didn't have my SLi-D Nah I'm very happy with my excellent board and this looks to be another winner from DFI :worship:

 

[Eguy]

what new ram are you gettin?

the best G.Skill I can find

 

[|3ourne]

just get 2x1gb crucial ballistix or Gskill GZ series ( i think thats what they are called ) the 2 x 1 gb kit. Make sure that u get 2 gigs though , ull love them when u play bf2 or f.e.a.r. or quake 4 .

 

[FragTek]

Holy shit, after looking at it and checking it for a second... I could use my DD Maze4 chipset block on this bitch! Oh HELLLLLLLL yes, this is alllllllllll mine

 

[Eguy]

@bourne, I am thinking about the G.Skill extreme TCCD DDR600 but they only make it up to 2x512 so I'll get 4x512 of those

thats a good set right?

 

[|3ourne]

nope , ballistix is a better bet. You will have to run 2T timings which effectively take away the advantage 512 mb sticks have over 2 gigs. with a 2x1gb kit you can run 1T with timings of 3-3-3-8 upto around 285~290 . Thats the best way to go.

 

[Eguy]

hmm seems n00begg dosen't have crucial in the specs we want

I was thinking

[FarFarAway]

Hey |3ourne if this is the stuff: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820231021

Any chance you could hook me up with some?

And OV3RCLOCK3R (nice sig BTW) is right - thats the Ballistix all right

 

[Waffles]

eguy: it says 3-4-4-8 but mine do 2.5-2-2-5 up to 230 and 280 @ 3-3-3-8 without breaking a sweat.. my pair is mediocre too

 

[NickS]

And OV3RCLOCK3R (nice sig BTW) is right

Hehe, thank you..I made it. :boink:

 

[OV3RCLOCK3R]
