dunno which forum/review did u read...but according to AnandTech, quoted:
"..The discovery that the Ultra chipset can be easily modded to SLI removes a major obstacle to SLI performance on the cheaper Ultra boards - if the manufacturer made provisions for SLI. Once the SLI mod is complete, the system and nVidia drivers see the chipset as a full SLI chipset. This removes the driver issues and the ability of nVidia to turn off support in "non-complying Ultra SLI chipsets".

no more prob with the driver. u can even use the new driver...just connect one part and walla...u have 'SLI-modded" board...
havent try on mine thou...actually, i still waiting for my hsf b4 setup my nf4 system.

anybody have their TCCD on this bod...just got my replacement from corsair...just my luck...sent CH5...got back TCCD
my current setup which is P4 system with ASUS P4P800 Dlx doesnt have enuff Vdimm...onli 2.85v...so cannot max the stick...heard TCCD is good with with DFI nf4...hope mine as well.

shouldnt be too hi since it's TCCD...but dunno what's wrong la, maybe my current mobo...havent try it on my new dfi ultra-d...still waiting for 2 more stuffs b4 can assemble it...BTW...what psu would u guys recommend? my coming rig:

DFI LANParty UT Ultra-D
Winnie 3000+ 0504 DPDW <-- not really good batch la... but dunno yet
Corsair TWINX1024-C2PRO v4.1
1xChaintech 6600GT
2xMaxtor SATA 80Gb - non-RAID setup
1xMaxtor PATA 250Gb
1xASUS DVD-ROM <-- sucks...damn sensitive
1xLiteON - DVD 8x Burner
Thermalright XP-120/Delta Tri-blade 120mm

should i go for dual 12v rail or single is enuff...not planning on SLI-mod...at least not yet

in that case...u'r rite alvarez...so those who have the ole one in their hand considered lucky...another gem sort of...non-SLI-D enable with same chipset as SLI-D...new ones will be totally non-SLI-D chipset...
hope mine is the first one...

where can i get it???any LYP store selling it???

just check with newegg...emmm...i think i'll pass...it's beyond my budget liao...500 is acceptable...800???waaa...can buy another 6600gt...thanks for the offer thou...

interesting...it's in my second list...any parcticular shop would u recommend???thanks

havent check mine yet...hope it's moddable...
anyway...just got the time to setup my rig last nite...i got a few question if anyone mind to share their expertise:

1. Anybody use the Thermalright XP-120 with Ultra-D. it's damn hard to put my Twinx1024-C2PRo coz of the damn big ramsink.
2. Coz of #1, I can only put them on DIMM 1 & 3 (after doing some wresting with the HSF), but once power up, got beep and the led showed that my ram are not detected even thou i can see the led on my ram is going up and down i.e. some activites going on. Already flash the bios to the latest one. Pull out the power cable, cleared the CMOS, unplugged the battery. wait some time and reverse the process. Start the system, OK. But if I go into the BIOS and load the optimized setting and restart, got the same problem back. RAM not detected. Once, i tried to proceed to load windows without entering the loading the optimized setting - OK. Got into windows, mem running at dual-channel. But when I restart the pc, same thing happen again. RAM CANNOT BE DETECTED again. aiya....
3. to run at dual-channel, do I need to put the sticks at DIMM2 & 4 i.e. ONLY - cannot put at DIMM1 & 3 like most P4 mobo. Running single channel is OK btw but defeat the purpose of having the matched pair, izznt it.

any help is very much appreciated. meanwhile, i'll be going for a looong sailing over the net to find the solution.

was hoping the manual and the warning by BIOS is wrong... ... need to take out the monsters again la...both of them...the hsf and the c2pro...need to find a way some how...
but...i wonder why when i reset the cmos, restart, proceed to windows w/out going into bios, cpu-z detected my mem is running on dual channel...and this is at DIMM1 & 3...hmmm...maybe dfi need to come-out with another fix for this...if not, then there's no need to have the diff color coded for dimm1&3 and dimm2&4, isn't it?

pewww...has gone fishing on the net for the guide...found none...the only one found...is non-dual channel...which is using dimm1&3...very discouraging...but finally...i tried it my own way and voila...managed to put the chunk of stick in dimm4...with about 1 mm space between the tip and the heatsink...so now running on dual-channel...but still not stable la...dunno what's wrong...sometime when entered the bios...it just hang...but some times only not always...need to re-check again...anyway...need to memtest my mem setting now...ciao

Twinx1024-C2Pro Rev.4.1...u just can imagine the hassle i need to go thru to install the stick under the xp120 wing...
anyway...my system is stable now...but just pushing the cpu/mem a little bit...220@2336...havent got time to fully concentrate and today i'm off for two-day workshop...damn...
hope to run at 2225...but no luck yet...a lot of tweaking has yet to be done...any tips???

tried that already...got that from dfi-street...but working for me...need some tweaking...but that can be use as a start...will tweak again 2nite, once got back...still at the w'shop...thanx kianwei

luckily i didnlt give up...
what proc r u using yennshin...and how's the ram and ocability...

it was hell coz my ram is twinx pro series...it's too tall compared to others...

i've read somewhere...i think it's in the LYN...mentioning about the mosfet can withstand up to 100C...so if around 50C it should be ok...but dont know whether it's true or not...and nice ram u got there ...mine is tccd...so with this mobo...the extra voltage wont do much...

been there...done everything and finally gotta it installed...but i don't know how's the height of your ocz compared to my twinx pro...mine is around 42~45mm...if yours are shorter (i mean the ram stick), it is possible to install...but with some wrestling la...haha

he got some kaki from the state i guess...that's he told me when i asked about the best psu...

that's the reason i have to say 'thank you' to kianwei...enermax noisetaker 600w at lyn already cost u RM570...imagine the OCZ powerstream...prepare to eat sand la...

yup...that's the price...but what can u expect...good stuff doesnt come cheap...except form ahemm product...

u might need to a little bit define the word 'normal'...is it capalang psu...this mobo requires constant juice...how height izzit depends on what is ur attention...normal use or oc kaw2 type...if not enuff juice...u may get the power led blinking once and awhile...and restart loop may happen...happened to me once...forgot to connect the fdd connector to the board...when i booted the pc...got blinking power led...nice to watch thou but could never load properly...my at least get some pure or truepower la...maybe 450w...that one depends on what's ur system capacity...maybe sifus around here can give some tips...
