DFI or MSI nForce 4 Ultra?

msi's been very stable for me, both great mobos get the cheaper, or whichever one you think looks better (pst MSI!!! 😛)
 
Go for the DFI, mine is doing great, very stable and if later u decide to overclock this is the best board.

nah, who wants all that pastel purple on their board? 😉
 
MSI, DFI is mainly used for memory and cpu overclocking. You'd actually see the diference of which one is made for overclockers in the BIOS. DFI has like 8 settings for the memory voltages alone.
 
o0o0o thats crazy 8 setting just for memory. Well i have a question for the msi, can it go up to 2.6 easily with some Geil Ultra X?
 
likely, yes. stable, probally. MSI is good for some overclocks. but you have to disable the DOT feature that coems with it (Dynamic Overclocking T...soomething)...it seems to screw up major overclocks. 5-15%, no prob, but puching it manually past that, disable.
 
ooo ok thank you for telling me 🙂 im planning on getting the msi neo4 in the summer with the rest of the computer parts im getting. What ram do u suggest getting for the msi neo 4 platinum?
 
i'm just using crucial value select. ram doens't really affect AMDs that much. in fact, alot of the forums on this site about "should I upgrade to pc-4000" seem to come back "the differences will be negligible"

check MSI's homepage for tested-true ram. I know the crucial work for a fact, but if you want something a little more performance-savy, take a look at the compitibility list. GL
 
It's a great board. Just do yourself a favor, and buy RAM that is on the approved list. COrsair Value...don't go there.
