It's almost half a year when Intel Bearlake chipset launched.
3 top motherboard manufacturers were released different version's P35 platform.
Price is quite reasonable, which are around US$135~160.
That kinds of pricing are popular in the market.

DFI has created 3 different P35 based motherboards.
They are: DFI LP UT P35-T2R/DFI LP LT P35-T2R.
Two high-end models are mostly focus on performance and overclocking.
Later, DFI also released an entry-level version: Blood-Iron P35.
Overclock performance is good as usual. But features and components usage is a quite "entry-level"....

Recently, DFI launched a new LANParty series, called DK.
The LANParty DK P35. It has 3 different versions:
1)full solid capacitor + ICH9R
2)full Japanese capacitors + ICH9R
3)full Japanese capacitors + ICH9
They priced around US$150~170.

The leading character this time is DFI LANParty DK P35's Jap. Caps. + ICH9R version

This model also has CMOS Reloaded function, it almost the same to high-end model's P35.

Quad-core in FSB500 by 4X Super PI 32M finished!!


Quad-core in FSB522 by 1X Super PI 32M finished!!


I used this QX6800 CPU OC with most P35 boards in the market, it gained around FSB470~480.
Although the highest record with quad-core almost reached 484MHz.

It is hard to imagine that this DK series board can push the FSB limitation to another level. It rocks me.
Hope these 3 version of DK series can be satisfied enthusiast as a different choice!!

this board looks damn cool....if it is indeed under rm600, it's great value...issit on retail here yet?

superb max FSB...

Paging for Almostthere, paging for Almostthere!

purely best bang per buck mobo.

this will be the best P35 single PCIE slot mobo.

is he the one to look for for this board???

DK stand for wat?
Dragon Knight? >.<"
seems like i played too much dota...

but nice board,
the price also very tempting ^,^
RM600-700 really worth of money to get this board...

haha ~ seen windwithme at some many forum~~

even LYN also having the post ~

good review bro~~

No lar, it's because his comments is the best to rely on once there's a new board in the market.

ohya, i like the black PCB a lot,
there is not many mobo in black PCB,
i think only some of high end board from asus are using black colour one,
other brand rarely could find black PCB...
black PCB cool and rocks ^,^
it also make it look so high class~

how about DFI mobo for AMD?..

dk
stand for Drift King FTW!!!!

handpicked proc?? look at those vcore 1.264??

wah, the voltage is low eh...
and even OC-ed at such speed with low voltage,
tat person sure have a nice engineering sample...

waa...myb we can wait until AceCombat get this mobo n try oc it

too bad lately local supplier alphamatic didin't wan to bring in any DFI mobo
wonder why ???

finally a goddamn decent board to replace the Dark. Full caps at USD170/= sounds more like it. Damn blood iron was rubbish and had some limitations which were obviously DFi induced. Tapi why the 8 pin ATX lobang at the back? Haiseh. Shawty......start bulk woi!!!!

That one later I go ask tauke at Viewnet why ok? Don't cry laaa...u can always bulk it ma

very long din see him review in this forum edi
he alway have nice item to review

See, i told you guys sifu almostthere would love this motherboard.

Bulk ahh, nanti aku check check kan ye?

Too bad local demand not much, local usually choose Gaygabyte or Asus

One thing that is still in the dark is about the Phase PWM Controller, is it 4? 6? or 8?
