so what do you guys think? Should I let my motherboard sit overnight and try to boot it up tomorrow?

I really wish I had a spare PSU capable of powering a 3700+, 2x512, MSI board

. my original rig. After my DFI goes in, I won't have any of the base parts that I started out with

(I know another member here that lives in the same town, do you think its worth asking him to lend me a power supply?)

It certainly couldn't hurt nategr8ns. Is it anyone I know?

How about a DFI POST?

I might be interested if the price is right. I'll only need one. But if the price is right, one would be absolutely PERFECT for my other HTPC build I'm working on.

I'd have to agree. The CCBBE chips do require much more voltage to reach high clocks, but they are able to outclock most other steppings (typically). Mine, thinkerbell's, and your own...are all "golden" chips. 3.0GHz under 1.40v...that to me makes a "golden" chip for a 939'er. I also require 1.375v to reach the 3.0GHz mark. But I only require 1.26v for a 2.8 stable run, so that's where I'm at during summer time.

For example, it took me 1.520 V to hit 3007 MHz. Granted, at that time, I had bad RAM. I might try again once I get the 'new' Abit.

OK no luck with the DFI

3700+ went in with ketchup and the stock opty cooler
one stick of corsair VS 400mhz in the uppermost orange slot
all power plugs in, no other components (tried both with and without a graphics card)
still can't find memory!!!!!

I would contact the seller; perhaps your board is wired wrong (IE; one of the channels is reversed or something) and he can tell you what he learned. What warranty was offered on the board? 'As-is' or limited warranty? Were you so lucky to get a general warranty? Another thing to try: just for sake of fun, change the CMOS battery.

nategr8ns · 07-13-08

well the board will run without a battery in it, so I don't think thats the problem (except it wouldn't save my CMOS is I unplugged it or the power went out)
I guess I could try it though.
I'm now back on my MSI though :\

I don't know anything about the warranty, I didn't think you could buy additional warranties through eBay, but DFI's motherboards carry 3 year warranties IIRC.
