Yup Masky ! It was exactly your keyword "enthusiast" that I higlighted :) . And I agreed with you 100% just in case it didn't come thru' as such in my post ! Another problem with the DFIs is the RAM - the support techies completely discourage any use of ValueRam !

Gee Masky ! That's an excellent piece of advice ! I hope you don't end up getting flamed for it though. The keyword here is "enthusiast" - for whom anything goes. For others, I'd only say this - it's not a question of money; it's a matter of being strong-hearted to not get deeply...

Good piece of info there ! A4T (i.e. single and not double AA ) is Winbond BH-5, I vaguely recall.

Darky + DFI = Dizzying OC ;)

Interesting that you mentioned about RAM cooling... Was reading this a few days back... http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=59373 One of the reasons that people don't like the heat spreaders is because it narrows down the gap between the sticks and obstructs air flow. Will...

^^LOL ! How about this - water-repellant, shark-skinned, sleek, ergonomically designed Jedi Surf Board with a special logo "May the Force Be With Me Only" - HeHe ! That OTES is intriguing - ABIT seems to have plonked a lot of moolah in more than marketing !

^^Yo ! You're psychic ... and a pretty good one at that :O http://www.abit.com.cn/MotherBoard/LGA775/RocketBoyAG8/ I think it is a China-only edition...may be ! The latest Bios revision for my mobo is actually titled RocketBoy edition :cool2: The xtremesystems forums may have some ocing...

Well, that was until Mr. Fatal1ty got messed up by Mr. RocketBoy ! (source gameslave) well, well, well.....Chinese market promising to be what it is, may be that match was fixed ! Just having a dig at you Caayote ;) - I'm a very happy owner of an ABIT AV8 mobo - a pretty decent OCer ! And...

^^Waaaay to go Man ! Can see that you're on Cloud 9. Get her hot at stock speeds before you start riding her to Hi Heavens ;) ! And a honest piece of advice though - don't go barging in to dfistreet with a 20-pin psu blazing in your sig ! Seriously, those techies there will give you the cold...

Congrats Rocky ! What PSU are you using - 20/24/20-24pin adaptor ? And what RAM ?

Well, checked these prices just now....in Chennai MSI-Neo4F: 10.5K MSI Neo4 Platinum SLI: ~15K Kinda high compared to up North, eh ! Hmm...may be that's one of the reasons why I'm partial to Asus here :).

Why not the A8N-E Ultra ? It is nf4 Ultra while the MSI Neo4-F is plain nf4 ! Even if the pricing is not-so comparable, I'd go with the A8N-E which I believe is about ~8.5K. In fact, if a couple of thousand bucks isn't gonna hurt the budget very much, I'd be tempted to go with the A8N-SLI over...

HeHe, I think he set us up :bleh:

OK ! the only reason as I understand from the posts above as to why people should not be using this tool and that I should give it a shot myself is simply because "one will have problems booting it from a floppy"...hmmmm...kind of anti-climactic...I was expecting something more along the lines...

Should that link read http://google.stanford.edu/ LOL what is it ? - the "I'm Feeling Lucky" Button ?

No offense really ...But I'll diplomatically choose to ignore the second of your comments :no: ...."IT'S NOT USED" is different from "it's not a common application used today". My visit to the Corsair forums followed your comments if you look at the timestamps of my posts. windiag aka Windows...

HeHe Thanks Masky ! BarbieGirl is probably just being true to her(???) name :ohyeah: ! @QuickFire: Well, I looked into the RAM guy forums at Corsair ! And it appears that windiag "is not a common application used today" and he hinted that it could have problems. So, good ol' memtest appears...

How about this one from Microsoft ? http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp Looks like it can catch the RAM errors within the first pass of 30 mins. Haven't tried this one personally though.

Nah ! just psychological....after you saw the one which guzzled a lot of fizz :rofl: That chick is gonna kill me ! BTW, if you freeze frames, you can catch the chick imitating a doggie - the way doggies give in to temptation when they see a fire hydrant !!!!

^^Oh Man O' Man ! I hope it wasn't bcoz of me :O ! I really thought that avatar was very funny !
