it wasn't me. Other Thoughts: Zero support for problems. DFI DOES NOT ANSWER EMAILS, period. Product warranty is worthless. from Newegg.com Pros: DFI quality. Thermalright chipset heatsink! from Newegg.com Pros: Great and rock solid board for overclocking. I've had DFI boards in the past (Socket 939s) and they've worked perfectly (after some minor tweaking) and this one is no different. The external chipset cooler can be mounted inside or out, I have mine mounted outside and it does lower your chipset temps about 5-7 degrees C. from Newegg.com Pros: + Arguably the best board available for socket 1366 at the time of writing this review.+ DFI = great overclocking, stability and performance.+ Comes with plenty of accessories.+ Enough BIOS options to keep me tweaking for weeks on end.+ Arrangement of components on the board is about as good as can be for a motherboard that offers this much. Cons: - Not as many BIOS options as my CFX3200-DR/G (AMD 939 board).- Required BIOS update out of the box to work properly. from Newegg.com I recommend this board for anyone who is looking to push their hardware, even if you are new to OCing. This board is hands down better than the last two ASUS boards I have had. I will be sticking with DFI in the future for all my OCing computer needs. from Newegg.com Pros: Too many to list...read the description. Cons: onboard audio solution comes with ribbon cable that is too short to use with tri-GFX installed. from Newegg.com Will not save CMOS settings when power is off. Ordered a replacement board from another manufacturer and it works flawlessly. Other Thoughts: I will never buy or recommend another DFI product to anyone from Newegg.com Cons: It was DOA. Other Thoughts: Motherboard was DOA. I tried everything I could find in the manual, DFI Website and DFI forums to resurrect the Motherboard. Unfortunately Nothing worked. from Newegg.com Then once I got that taken care of I went ahead and installed vista. Everything worked great until you get to overclocking. DFI is supposed to be amazing for ocing this and that. Well the board was a joke for overclocking. from Newegg.com Cons: Sadly, this board does not work well with double height graphics cards. I have 2 NVIDIA GeForce 275 GTXs in it,and the 2ndary covers the PCIex4 slot (where a sound card would go). So, the only choice is to use the 3rd graphics slot (x8 slot) for my sound card. Well, that puts the 2ndary GFX slot from 16x to 8x, becase it's sharing 8x with the 3rd slot. from Newegg.com
