Some update for DFI NF4 board

[Onepagebook]

1.Temp trick prevent Winchester subzero problem:
**from friend MGV101's explanation

The board displays the temperature using a 8bit binary digit which could display up to 256C.

It cannot display -ve numbers so when it drops down below 0 (00000000), it jumps back up to 256 (11111111).
This is when you install the ITE SmartGuardian monitor program. like the pic below, you can see the temp is 239, so:
239-256=-17..that's about it!



2. I am testing the newest bios Oskar gave me tonight which add the Bank Interleaving as I read it from the thread the other day (I forgot which thread), that's what I suggest him to do so.

Stay tune

Hey give that CPU some volts. Let's see some real overclocking

Can you post benches before & after interleave fix and compare to the MSI mobo as well?

[Onepagebook]

that's what I am doing now, will have update later on.

interest re the temps

[pik-ard v1.1]

so even though it thinks the temps are enough to melt the computer, it lets it boot?

[reject]

wow this board looks better and better each day. i knew that 939 nf3 was just a horrible fluke

[abstrakt]

Hmm? Same as the NF3, I thought everyone would have worked this out?

i hope the board will shutdown when cpu temp reach the limit with normal fan cooling tho

The BIOS shows correct sub-zero temp., just the software can't

smart... software??!

[tictac]

ok thanks

[TinTin]

smart... software??!

I see this software showing on their manaul, where is it?
Don't know it is smart or not...

well that makes loads of sense...

Try Tccd set as DDR525 CL2

[IvanAndreevich]

Did it do that on any other board? What volts, btw.

This is on the DFI board, 2.9v What 'd you think how high the voltage TCCD ic can tolerate?

[Blindbat]

Is LDT scaling down automatically like Oscar said and u are forcing it to 5x with a64 tweaker?

[idleuser]

nice results, where can I download smart guardian

[MarilynMX]

comes with product I think?

[Onepagebook]

comes with product I think?

yup, it should come with DFI board when you purchase that.


OPB

[IvanAndreevich]

2.9V - still some volt-loving TCCD.

I meant can your memory do this @ CL2 on OTHER boards or only on this DFI?

[Cid]

OPB, what G.skill is that which you are doing cas 2 with 262? Is it available for consumers or special stuff only for you?

[STEvil]

OPB - can oskar seperate the TRCD-r and TRCD-w values like they were on the nF2 Lanparty-B/Infinity?

[cupra]

nice results opb

im jest wondering, the dfi really can go over 4v fo the mem ?


(i need 3.4-3.5v for my vx)

[Hombre]

Use a DDR Booster for 3.5v, use DFI and a monster PSU for 4v.
