There is one big problem with DFI motherboards and that is a serious lack of BIOS support. They will support their boards for a time after they release, but will totally drop support when a new version of the same board comes out.
They also don't fix as many bugs on their motherboards as other companies do. Reliable BIOS is not a key concern of the DFI management and apparently has never been a concern since they started releasing their Lanparty and overclock-featured boards.
Their focus is on making the fastest overclockable motherboard, but you take a lot of risks on using a DFI board of incompatibility and BIOS reliability problems.
This is just my experience with DFI boards in the past, and has been backed up by just going thru their site and checking the release dates and bugs fixed in BIOS patches on their motherboard products in comparison to other companies. |
