Official DFI NF4Ultra-D/SLi owners thread.

is there a guide for tweaking memory settings on this board? I have the ocz rev 2, and i'd really like to be able to run it at 1:1 or 9:10 instead of 4:5. Currently at 290fsb x 8.5.

Is this something to do with dodgy memory controllers on pre-week 46 winnies as well? Ie not being able to run the memory at 1:1 on high FSBs?
 
Pre week 42 IIRC, so that could be your problem. as for memory, its a little bit of a lotto realy with this board.

But main ones to adjust are : CAS(tcl), Ras to Cas delay(trcd),RAS & Tras
 
All My components arrvied at my house yesterday including my DFI nf4 Ultra-D Mobo ;)

i have just finished properly setting it up :] didnt have any problems at all :p i booted straight up into bios the first time i turned it on, and its the first pc i built by my self... only problem i have had is setting up a network and i had my hdd... some sorta errors :rolleyes: ... i just flashed the bios and its solved :cool:

i havent had any time to play with my 'equipment' yet... im going to have to Overclock it soon ;)
 
would be interested to see how you do webby. What week is your 3000? Mine's a 31 and seems fairly happy at 2.45ghz! Although i'm putting 1.63 volts in it...too much?

Ok i have a ultra board with this molex on the board. Now in the instructions it says it is for HDD type (5v/12v) now i also have a Tagan power supply. On the tagan one of the connnectors sayd HDD and is blue, now does his go to the hardrive or the molex on the motherboard as i am really confused now lol.
 
Right, finally finished putting everything together! So far had no problems at all!

Currently running @ 250 x 11, mem 1:1, CPU 1.5v, VDIMM 3.0v, timings 3,3,2,6. Ran prime95 for about 20mins, no errors, need to do a through test though :p ! CPU load temp was ~44c with an XP120.

Specs: DFI-NF4 SLi-DR REV R.A01 (BETA BIOS 2.09), FX55 @ 2750MHz, OCZ PC3700EB, OCZ520W PSU, XFX6800Ultra, 2 x 74GB WD Raptors in RAID0

Ran a quick 3D Mark2001SE test and scored 27685, GFX @ 450/1200

1MB SuperPi: 31 seconds

Need some new mem to achieve higher HTT:)

Also noticed my +12v rail at 11.74 - 11.84, LED on PSU is green though and stabilty seems fine, so i'll leave that for now:)

the molex on the board is for ANY molex connector, dunno about the Tagan lol, i didn't even notice a hdd molex on my Tagan, just plugged any old molex into my hdd, been like that for 6 months...

Just plug a standard Molex in it.

Looking good Mike, I would try a Higher HTT (400+) with a 120 or 100mem setting. Don't forget to set PCIe to 101mhz though

Yeah, haven't tried any mem dividers yet, been playing with other settings! :D

SiSoft mem bandwidth is currently 7304MB/s :)
 
why does windows keep getting error messages about the hard drive, after the fsb is over about 205? also every time i load windows up i get an 'sil' error from the sata :rolleyes:


also i cant find the pci dmi pool option in bios? i cant minimise games sometimes :eek: and steams seems to crash when loading and takes ages also the game lags a lot at time :eek: and im running a 6600Gt my intergrated nforce2 doesnt lag and it is capable of playing steam at 29fps nonstop...
