Hmmm, I cant find that board here in the States...I wonder if it will be available here???

[Dougal]

Gah, student loan time soon

[Harlequin_uk]

i hope this clocks as well - if not better than the sli-dr boards!

£156.26 how does this compare with the sapphire pure board?

Up to 512mb ddr devices? Does that mean it can't handle 1gb sticks??

That would seem to be in conflict with:

4 x 184-pin DIMM sockets 4GB in max

But i dont really get what x8 and x16 mean, unless its the number of chips per stick?

Isn't x8 and x16 the speed of the PCIe?

I think thats the line below.

That is DFI so will be the top end of prices plus the exclusivity factor. No one in their right mind is gonna spend that kind of cash (and not go SLI) unless they know something about R520 that we don't.

2gb sticks?

err actually they will go Crossfire not SLi ...

[Dougal]

Strangely DFI haven't got this on their website.

read my post carefully again.

I guess the whole spec is just plain dodgy.. better off waiting for the features to solidify in a review before thinking about it...

and £150 for a mobo?!?! ()*U£)$&(£*&^("U)£*!_(£"! You can bloody get a 3500+ at that price..

I think it refers to the graphics cards - DDR memory sticks are usually refered to as 'modules' when I see it - and yep it would conflict with the 4gb max for 4 slots lol


Man we live in such a ripoff country - with that exact price without shipping, it would currently cost the americans $283.49
