decent board - not for the serious overclock though

Reviewed By: good board on 11/14/2009

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Relatively inexpensive. P45 is a good chipset. It's a DFI which is always a plus. DFI has a good website and support forum.

Cons: You cannot under volt the chip to minimize voltage (Vcc). It will run at whatever the VID on your processor is set to so keep your fingers crossed that you have a good chip! You can only ADD voltage to the stock VID. Only has one 400 MHz strap (400/800) so forget about running your RAM higher if you're pushing the FSB in that strap. No auto reset for your BIOS - you have to use a jumper on the board. Kinda lame. Tight fit around the CPU mount due to the +12 volt connector. Getting my Xiggy S1284 on there was a PAIN! Had to do it with the board out of the case and actually connected the +12 outside of the case too. Poor documentation in the user manual so know what you're doing or learn to use google. No cooling on the NB HS. Mine tends run around 55 C @ 333/1066 strap. Kinda warm. You have to move jumpers to get the PCI-X slot to run @ 16x/ you cannot run both @ 16x, only 8x/8x.

Other Thoughts: If you're planning to do a mild overclock (like 266 --> 333) it should be fine, but if you want to run at a 333 MHz chip @ 400+ MHz, you only have one strap with this board! If you want a better board, consider the LT/UT series.

I still gave it 5/5 since it was never indented to be a serious o/c board. KNOW WHAT YOU'RE BUYING BEFORE YOU BUY IT!

Reviewed By: stereo on 9/8/2009

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Deed BIOS. I'm not that experienced of an overclocker and I was able to get an E7600 to 4.07 ghz in about 30 mins. Very stable board.

Cons: None at this price, but like all DFI boards you end up paying extra after you add in the larger power supply than normal required to run them. I have a 610 watt PC Power & Cooling PSU running it.

Other Thoughts: i put some old 667mhx crucial balistix in it. (2 x 1 gig sticks). and ran them at 695 mhz 3-3-3-9 / 2t. board handled it great w/ very little increase in NB volts.
