looks nice.

bigben2k · 01-20-2006, 02:38 PM

Still wish they'd show the inside. We'll have to wait for a review, I guess.

Mr. Tinker · 01-20-2006, 03:13 PM

If they were proud of the internals, they'd show 'em.

AngryAlpaca · 01-20-2006, 03:58 PM

If they were not at all concerned that their product would be ripped off before it got to market, they'd show 'em.

DFI Lan Party SLI= Not compatible

then I dont care.

Too bad that DFI put their chipset right under the cards. Odd design decision. Yes, I have one too.

Maybe there's nothing to show after all...

There's nothing inside, empty volume. Have a look to the last page in the PDF, you'll see it. No need more for a single chipset.

TerraMex · 01-21-2006, 03:54 PM

same as mcw20, have one, does the job -> what more to ask?
about the DFI, the manufacture is the problem, IMO,
hard as it is to change even to a different passive heatsink let alone a waterblock, does not pay to be "different"

.

BillA · 01-21-2006, 07:41 PM

7W ?
a year or two to get to 10-11W

TerraMex · 01-21-2006, 08:05 PM

7w?
seems more to me.

BillA · 01-21-2006, 08:15 PM

info from a chip mfgr
measure ? (not me, lol)
I evaluated to 20W for laughs (but did not measure the mobo output)

TerraMex · 01-21-2006, 08:42 PM

i would go further than 20W.
the nforce4 sli chip (example) seems to be hotter than that -> large HS and active cooled.

BillA · 01-22-2006, 01:43 PM

could be, no real info

maxSaleen · 01-22-2006, 08:27 PM

We could do this through reduction.... granted I don't have exact numbers

"Typical" system:

MB: DFL NF4 SLI
CPU: 3800 X2
GPU: 6800GT (x2)
RAM: 1gb DDR 400
HD: 250GB WD
Fans

Such a system pulls about 350w. Assume that, other than fans and HDs, all electrical input is put out as heat (no mechanical work done, therefore heat is the only option). HD -20w. RAM -10w. 6800GT(s) - 80w apiece. 3800 x2 -100w (anyone know the TDP off the top?). Knock another 20w for fans.

That leaves us with 40w. Can't imagine a chipset putting out that much.

Anyone else want to fiddle with these numbers?

The way I look at chipset WBs.... one less fan in the system.

Oh dear - even suggesting this is a bit

Even if the numbers were accurate, electronics power draw does not equal power into heat...
