It IS fucking awesome isn't it? How hot is your board running? Mine seems to hover around 50 degrees. I'm not sure if the ABIT FAGtal1ty boards don't have the better cooling solution.


I swapped out the DFI with the A8N32-SLI as well. I should have held out for it in the first place (FUCK YOU ANANDTECH). Temps hold at about 47 degrees with the stock 4800+ heatsink. This is in a Lian Li PC-65 case with a PC Power & Cooling 510-SLI as well. Easily the best NF4 board I've worked with.

Right out of the box, at default settings, it scored 204 points higher in 3DMark06 than the DFI board. I'm not sure if that means anything at all in the real world, but since Stew has thrown down the gauntlet, I'm going to have to cobble together some more robust cooling and OC the shit out of this thing.


That gauntlet is thrown back up because I cannot replicate the results. The kicker: the fucking memory was autosensed at DDR266 at the time of the test. After noticing and fixing this today, I got a score of approx ~7000. The fuck?!
