Grow into this one.
- Pros: Lots of room for WC gear. If you can't find what you are looking for in the BIOS, that option does not exist. I chose this board for my first wc build, and first overclocking board. I am still learning, and so far, it has been fun.
- Cons: Yes, a steep BIOS learning curve, but what better place to do it than on the most complete and thorough implementation. Lots of help on the web. Plus built-in safeguards and convenient recovery. Don't be scared, this board's got your back.
- Other Thoughts: DFI LP LT X48, E8400, 2xG.SKILL 4GB PC2 8500, EVGA 9800GTX+, Velociraptor 300, Antec 550, Vista 64, Apogee GTX, MCW 30, MCW 60, MCP 350, XSPC Res, MCR220-QP Res, Black Ice GT Stealth 240 XFlow
Hideous Northbridge Heatsink
- Pros: Three x16 pcie slots for non-I7 processor. Lots of troubleshooting and jumpers for over-clocking.
- Cons: Northbridge heatsink comes as a large piece that you must install yourself. The one that came in the box when installed makes the first pcie slot (the main one) useless because it overhangs the slot. The manual included in the box shows a different board layout which would allow this heatsink not to block the slot. The manual on the website shows my board layout but the heatsink is different.
Junk in a Box
- Pros: Abosolutely ZERO none nada ZIP
- Cons: My personal experience with DFI as a company is anything but stellar. I purchased one of their $300 x48-TR2 boards over a year ago and it has never worked properly. I was sent another broken board that will not even overclock or retain CMOS settings when power is lost. They were not concerned with my problem what so ever. Further BIOS updates only made things worse. All they wanted me to do was keep sending boards back at my expense. While I have 20+ year in I.T., I was not so egotistical that I did not ask for help. I went thru channels and posted in forums all over. No solutions.
This waste of money board is now in a home theatre PC until I replace it. Horrible tech support. Stay away from DFI !!!!!!!! *VGA is my mobo maker now.
