    ANTEC P180 available ( silver only)

    For those of us with small kids so they can't open the CD drawer in the middle of us installing a program (again and again and again). Also keeps a cleaner front, especially if you don't have matching component faces. CJ

    Have you tried contacting them? I was getting a little concerned since I paid an extra $30 for overnight shipping with saturday delivery and hadn't seen anything about it being shipped so I called them up. They were very polite and quickly informed me that my order was boxed and awaiting...

    Not a Sonata- the HD trays are wrong. Also, what's that red thing on top? Pretty clean wiring job so far. Any word on the 3700's yet? The suspense is killing me. I can deal with the 5/6 date, but 5/18 would pretty much suck since I shipped off my old processor yesterday. CJ

    "Official" DFI nF4 Ultra-D / SLI-DR Thread

    I have a modded Ultra with the 3/10 bios and it still shows up as SLI in the bios splash screen, though I don't have it running in SLI now. I know that I did have the computer crash one time with a BSoD and it said something about NVMM. This was with the original bios. CJ

    SATA drives are hot-swappable (i.e., you can unplug them while the computer is running). That's why it's shown as removable storage- it's normal. Also, these threads may help you: http://www.dfi-street.com/forum/showpost.php?p=63867&postcount=15...

    "Official" DFI nF4 Ultra-D / SLI-DR Thread

    I used a type B lead (in drafting, leads a based on hardness - 2H, H, HB, B, 2B). #2 pencil is probably HB and would probably work fine. I pressed pretty hard and went back and forth a few times to make sure that I had a graphite bridge. You can also use conductive paint, which I think comes...

    "Official" DFI nF4 Ultra-D / SLI-DR Thread

    I used a pencil for mine and it worked fine. I wanted to make sure that I could undo the modification easily if I needed to. I think that you can use any bridge, since the bridge is dependant on the cards and not the motherboard. I've also read that it is a one-to-one connection. DFI does...

    I got my Ultra board from either Newegg. However, you would probably have a better chance at getting an earlier board from a vendor that doesn't do as many sales. I've had pretty good service from zipzoomfly and monarch as well. Also, realize that the person who posted may just not have done...

    Going quiet(er) Part 1. HSF Suggestions

    I'm using a Silenx 92mm fan and am pretty impressed. I haven't seen this mentioned and was wondering what others' opinions were of this fan. 14 db and 36 CFM are the published specs. CJ

    They are operational by default, though you may have to enable them in software. There is also a board header in case you want to add optical i/o's. CJ
