They dont even look like DFI boards :-/

i agree,the first board reminds me of a dell,hp,etc basically any OEM board and the last pic looks like an Asrock board(no offence to them),If I bought a DFI board and one of those turned up it would be going straight back
 
Yeah, I'm fairly sure anyone advanced enough to buy a DFI board in the first place would be able to easily identify one of these as a fake board.
 
I've just bought a DFI board, and i'm happy to say, that it looks like neither of those.

Also happy to report, 3.0Ghz and counting.
 
I own a DFI and I've seen those fake ones. Without knowing its fake I would stay clear. It simple, the fake ones have crap colours on em. Real ones have all sorts of colour on the board.
 
the bottom board looks like some sort of gigabyte offering

owned a dfi board when i had a 939 system, was the mutts nuts to say the least

solid as a rock but it was a tad on the noisy side :(
 
I just unplugged all my fans and made my room silent except the chipset cooler and i can barely hear it. With anything else running in the PC you cant hear it at all.
