Official DFI NF4Ultra-D/SLi owners thread.

[Scrappy]

All retail boards are the same hardware wise. The only difference is the bios.
From what i've seen quite a few people with the SLI-DR have revision a01. But the Ultra people tend to have a02.

 

[platty]

Yeah i got a SLI and its a 01. Just flash with the beta bios and we're away. Cant test either here yet. Waiting for a PSU.

 

[mrbios]

right finally got all mine setup nicely, (rev.a02) only problem though, i cant use dimm4 (XP120) so untill i get a mach2 im stuck in dimm 1+3 is there any way to get the message about putting ram in 2+4 to go away, its ******* annoying lol (its on bootup post screen)

 

[platty]

have you got the heatpipes facing down towards the GFX. That should allow all 4 dimms to be used?

See post.
Depending on the height of your memory, you may have to put it in before fitting the cooler.

 

[mrbios]

right, my stupidity has been undone one hell of a tight fit but i got it in there eventually (split if id of had to put it in before my cooler there would have been no hope lol, due to the way its mounted i wouldnt be able to get the heatsink on with the ram there)

cheers for all the help lads, tis a truly great motherboard when running properly

........ now ive just got to fix my chair

 

[FreeStream]

230x11 now with 1.55V CPU and 3V mem... its going good now

Not atm.. the price was too high for two but wait a few months and im sorted

But you leave your sig saying it is?


Intarweb penis = Intarweb penis +10;

 

[Tenshi]

he hasn't, he's just put "SLI" in his sig because he has an SLI motherboard and an SLI capable card.. rather ambiguous there though i'll admit

 

[Minstadave]

For the first time in 2 years Amtrak have delivered the board on the day it was meant to arrive, should have another late night getting this all setup

Really? They're a bit more reliable than that for me...

I guess the van must just get stuck in all the small streets, behind the sea of Japanese tourists, round your end.

 

[Minstadave]

This is the eigth delivery I've had from them, 1 was stolen and they never told me until I rang up after a few days, 2 have been a day late, the rest have been 2 or more days late.

All is forgiven though, my new board is here

 

[FreeStream]

lol

Been sorting the CPU and im at 1.55V + 104%.

25789ish 2001 marks
13978ish 2003 marks.

Stupid Ultra maxing out at 460/1180 atm...

Concorde

 

[Muzy]

What is the best memory for this board ?

I am into overcloking (maybe).

 

[brownbottle]

Hi,

Put 2.8V through two sticks of Corsair XMS4400C25 and still no joy....fails on bootup of windows. Should I place more volts through them?

I've updated the bios, etc. Whereabouts if the revision no. on the mobo?

Cheers

25789ish 2001 marks

is that not a bit low? im at stock everything and get 24366
(unless X850XTs are more suited to the 01 bench than 6800s? im yet to run 03, cpus a 3200)

Whereabouts if the revision no. on the mobo?

bottom pci slot theres a sticker on it

 

[brownbottle]

Doh, can't see the sticker now that i've installed the mobo in the case

Still, anyone still having problems with two sticks of memory after the updated bios? I'll have a look over at dfistreet, etc.

Cheers
