Hwoarang45 or kianwee,

where did you guys order your OCZ VX from and how much?

ray99mond,

I think I read somewhere in dfistreet or some other forum about DFI nF4's board that the memory settings at default are quite tight. Apart from the usual memory latency settings(cas, ras to cas, ras precharge, tras), the rest have to be loosened quite a bit too. I'm guessing it might be the reason why your D43's can't go higher than 200Mhz.

That was what I was wondering. Is there anywhere you can purchase just the SLI bridge?

I think very soon there'll be a lot of after market SLI bridges floating around.

Nice results! Looks like SLI setups can boost scores by almost half!

I read elsewhere if you are brave enough, you can scrape off the enamel they used to cover the 2 points. All you have to do then is connect the bridges with some conductive material e.g. conductive pen.

Do at your own risk though. Looks like its very easy to scrape too much off

Best of luck mate!

I think it would be a good idea to look out for newer guides that describe the steps to do it before you start. Don't wanna kill a brand new board there.

Most mosfets are made to withstand super duper high temps (in excess of 100C). No harm sticking a small HS using AS5 adhesive though if you're worried. So far there's not really any increase in OC or stability but I guess it gives you peace of mind running at those extreme levels

As for RAM, its always a good idea to use a fan to cool them. It may help with stability at higher FSB's/vdimm.

Yeayyy! My dad just returned from Malaysia with my SLI-DR mobo!

Just waiting for my CAA2C to arrive and I can start with some overclocking goodness again!

remysix, I think it was me who mentioned about mosfet temperatures. I did a rough measurement before and my mosfet sinks were hovering around the 80C mark! I bet before having the sinks on they were much higher too ;P

I guess I will be the only DFI nf4 owner with water cooling?

Sounds good to me bro!

I wonder if anyone here will watercool their SLI rigs regardless of mobo maker?

The 600W Enermax comes with 2 separate cables for SLI right? Or is it just a Y splitter?

I see, thanks sniper!

irenic, I was wondering if the PCI-E power connector is 2 separate cables from the PSU or if its actually just one cable from PSU but split into 2 connectors at the end like most of the other molexs.

Sorry, I should be more specific. It's meant for the PCI-E graphic cards like 6800GT and Ultra series. To run SLI both of them need to be powered that's why I asked whether there's 2 separate cables or if its shared.

Anyone know where to check for the revision number of the motherboards? I got a SLI-DR and would like to check for the revision number.

Thanks kianwee, was about to edit my post as I accidentally found it

Mine's an A02. I heard that the A03 boards can push much higher HTT's? What do you guys have?

What bios did the different revisions ship with? Mine's A02.

Hehe my SLI-DR is sitting alone on the desk now. His 3500+ companion is on it's way from Brisbane as we speak and so is the Twinmos UTT from chinsc. Don't think i'll be able to put this rig together anytime soon as I need to dismantle my water cooled rig and remove the PSU for the SLI-DR

Which VX series is that? Good to know that in Malaysia can get high end stuff too

Well, DFI boards were never really easy to work with especially in the begining. Once you've tweaked everything right, the board really shines with its full potential unleashed. Just gotta be a little patient and hope for better bios release and a considerable amount of time tweaking

Sorry to bring this off topic for a bit. No point for me to post a new thread just to ask a simple question.

I remembered seeing a few peeps here using the Enermax 600W Noisetaker. I wanted to get the OCZ 600 Powerstream but it seems that there's a shortage here whereas I can get the Enermax within 1 or 2 days and for a good price too. My parts are starting to collect dust waiting for a new PSU

Just wanna get some feedback from users of either PSU's on their usage experiences and rail readings. Thanks guys!
