DFI LANParty nF4 BIOS update

Sidney · 24th June 2005, 04:17

Four new BIOS are ready for download.

Here is the differences between the dash numbered BIOS's:
-1 uses 3.26 ram table general purpose (most ram)
-2 uses 3.16 ram table UTT/BH
-3 uses 3.10 ram table TCCD

1) The 3/10 ram table limits you to 2 Memory Modules, Dual Channel, in Orange Slots only.
2) BIOS's starting with 3/16/05 and newer, the 2 Memory Modules could go into either the Yellow or Orange slots. This means BIOS's with RAM tables 3/16 and 3/26 can have 2 Memory Modules, Dual Channel, in either Yellow or Orange slots.
3) Yellow slots 1 and 3 are suppose to be better suited for Higher Vdimm voltages and therefore UTT/BH-5 types of Memory Modules.
4) Orange slots 2 and 4 are suppose to be better suited for normal-to-lower voltages and therefore TCCD/TCCC/TCC5 types of Memory Modules.

So these are tweaked BIOSes.

Anyone tried them yet?
