I am unsure how I feel about this. Its awesome that they are referencing us in their news release, but it just seems weird to me... Great job Spire, thanks! And thanks to Asylum for helping out too...
| Quote: | Hayward, CA (April 8, 2005) – Here we win again! DFI LANparty NF4 SLI-DR brings home the Editor’s Choice from the well-known Canadian website PCstats !And the famous tech news and reviews site, Bigbruin, also bestows its Highly Recommended medal plate with 5 out of 5 stars on the DFI LANparty UT NF4 ultra-D!
“It doesn't do the DFI LANParty NF4 SLI-DR justice to just say that it's fast; it's one of the fastest motherboard on the market that PCSTATS has ever tested!” stated in the PCstats article, “Of course the DFI LANParty NF4 SLI-DR is not simply fast, it's also one of the most well equipped motherboards on the market ” and it concluded with the praise:” Looking at the DFI LANParty NF4 SLI-DR, there's little doubt that it really is the best overclocking motherboard ever built to date.”
From the Bigbruin’s article, not only the product is acclaimed for its “incredible good looks, the most tweakable BIOS to date and as stable as can be”, but also the tech support forum, www.dfi-street.com, also won the heart of the reviewer! “DFI also has the industry leading customer support with their forum based DFI-Street.com, where customers can read through other folk’s issues and also post their own problems with a reasonable expectation to a solution.”
Further, the board’s recent future mark victory also drew the attention. “All one has to do is go to Futuremark’s listing of top 3DMark record holders and you will see, the majority of those records are held by DFI nF4 motherboards.” The board brings home the perfect score, 5 out of 5, together with the highly recommended medal plate!

Great article guys!
Props to DFI but I don't overclock. I like my equipment to be stable and cool, which is why MSI is (almost) always my choice for mobos.

If you don't go nuts with the OC you can be both stable and cool.

First overclock I did was my Athlon 600 @ 700 on an FIC mobo and a generic GFD (blech). My board died after killing my proc. Then I "upgraded" to a Duron 800, oc'd it to 925 on an Abit board. Killed that too.
I suppose my bad luck (or stupidity) has stopped me from wanting to OC again
