" [IMPORTANT!] DFI cannot support DTR/Mobile cpu (A64)


Word comes today that we cannot officially support DTR or mobile Athlon64 processors on our board(s).

Let me explain...AMD themselves says no support for DTR & Mobile on desktop boards. AMD also has made it clear to motherboard mfg's that we may not claim support/compatibility of these processors on desktop-only boards (like our NF3 UT).

This means we cannot spend lab manpower trying to fix issues that might arise from the use of a DTR/mobile Athlon64 (this also is true of our AthlonXP but we've done everything we can to make that one work).




Now...before anyone gets bent out of shape...DFI-Street is here to try and help out when you come across issues...just like no motherboard mfg supports overclocking or modifying of the boards...Rgone and I and this community is here to offer 'unofficial' support. We are paid employees of DFI, and our goal is to make your DFI experience the best and keep you coming back for more.


But we can only do so much...creating this place was a means to get other experts and knowledgeable persons together to help where we, as company employees, cannot. Rgone and I overclock and use beta/modified bioses just to show you that they do work, or to show you how you might achieve whatever it is you are looking to achieve. But some things we cannot do...and support of mobile and DTR processors is one of them now.




What does this truly mean?

It means that Oskar nor any other on the DFI team can try to pin down any problems you might have with DTR/mobile cpu's.

At the same time...we've built a big enough community, and have guys like jess1313/SJ, Hellfire, tictac (he's around somewhere dont worry!), Viper John (ATI/vid card master), and others, to help when DFI cannot. Oskar can give them (and us, and you!) advice, but putting company resources to this just cannot happen anymore.


So...you think that this means that you are screwed? Not even...our boards run DTR/mobile cpu's just fine for the most part (some have quirks etc). Our bios modders and other experts are pretty dang handy at figuring things out too, and have filled in where Oskar could not, and will continue to do so.

Problems will arise for some with these cpu's, and probably more will arise with the newer AMD DTR/Mobile cpu's that come down the line...but also remember that newer (smaller, cooler, faster!) desktop chips will also come down that same line...and those we will do everything we can to let you crank them up to the highest possible speeds (until the fire department shows up!).

So...don't look at this as abandonment...we have no choice but to make it clear that we cannot officially support the chips. You really won't see much change around here honestly...unless AMD releases a new DTR/mobile that absolutely hates our boards....we won't be able to help with that in any official manner. Any desktop they release we will make sure it works though!

I just have to make sure everyone knows where our position has to be on this. DFI doesn't support overclocking nor modifying...but you see how we 'unofficially' support it...


Leave your feedback...and we know its not going to be happy I'm sure...but again, look at it from our position. This post is only to let everyone know, make sure everyone knows, the official, solid stance on DTR/Mobile.

Thanks,

Travis
