Classified NF200 Inbound
 
Enough said!

OH boy, here way go with the pwnage, congrats Travis!

DrNip 06-05-2009 04:56 AM

I had to give my "Golden Graham" a rightful home. DFI was like giving it the ghetto. Not to mention I had to do something to keep me in the 300 point class at the bot! Next on my list is some new RAM as well as the F1 Dragon CPU pot.

Chuchnit 06-05-2009 07:31 AM

You dirty dog. I knew you couldn't wait very long.

DrNip 06-05-2009 07:31 AM

I know, right?

Jeffro64 06-05-2009 10:57 AM

Congrats Nip! I was looking at the Classy last night over on EVGA and I looked at both but couldn't see anything in the specs about NF200 or non NF200.... How do you tell the difference?

DrNip 06-05-2009 11:01 AM

Supposedly the nf200 has 3x16 pcie while the non nf200 has 2x16 and 1x8 pcie or somethin like that. I was lookin at the cheaper version but hadn't seen anyone hittin as high as the nf200 ones or at least I couldn't find any. I figured if I was spending $400 might as well spend another $450 and get the one that is hittin 5.3ghz clocks with the 920. Seeing I have a cherry of a chip I didn't want to chance it and get the non nf200 just to find out it didn't overclock as well.

Jeffro64 06-05-2009 11:05 AM

Gotcha.... I agree, with that chip nothing but the best!

DrNip 06-06-2009 05:47 AM

So they tell me Tuesday will be the day. :splits:

Jeffro64 06-06-2009 06:43 AM

I sure want one... and it wouldn't take much more to talk myself into it, but the chip I want to go with it is 1K.

Which chip is that?

Jeffro64 06-06-2009 07:35 AM

i7 975

punx223 06-06-2009 11:23 AM

the nf200 and teh non nf200 are teh same board just minus the nf200 chip, they actually overclock very well, and unless your for some reason runninng 3 dual GPU setups you wont need the nf200 chip...

i have tested both boards with dual 295's along with tri 285's and the difference between the nf200 board was negligible.

DrNip 06-06-2009 11:24 AM

I will be running 3 GPU's sometime this year. A lil pre-plannin goes along way I tell ya. Saves ya money too.

I agree and when/if gpu's come out taht utilize over 8X pciex 2.0 you will be ready ;)

3 dual GPU's... as in 3 x 4870 x2's or 3 x GTX 295's???

DrNip 06-06-2009 11:29 AM

No you can't run three dual gpu cards . Only two.

Pick your poison.... the drivers wont support that but if you were a nut and wanted to fold on it, i have seen it done

DrNip 06-06-2009 11:31 AM

Oh yeah folding yes. SLI or Crossfire no. Or at least I haven't seen it.

Jeffro64 06-06-2009 11:34 AM

Ahhhhh.... OK, that makes more sense. I've never heard of it in SLI or CF either.

DrNip 06-06-2009 11:41 AM

I prolly could have got by with the non nf200 version but too many people I saw with monster benches with the nf200 version. $40 more count me in.

punx223 06-06-2009 11:49 AM

lol i didnt mean anything by it, and the nf200 does help with a physx card, but it also adds latency....

But you should have a good time with it nit, and if you need some help with it drop me a line

DrNip 06-06-2009 11:49 AM

Naw I won't need no help. Overclockin the 1366 platform is pretty easy in my opinion. Just watch for me on the bot.

punx223 06-06-2009 11:49 AM

btw looking at your top 2d superpi 1m do i get taht spot?? i hate to take it from jeff or do i gotta be on teh bot team to place there?

DrNip 06-06-2009 11:50 AM

Sorry, no can do. Got to be on the team if you want to play. Not to mention you could have been in the running for the Kingpin pot giveaway. Too late to join the team for that contest though.

Meh no worries lol.... no sweat though, so how you been nip? I see your getting the X58C YOU WILL LIKE!!!!!

DrNip 06-06-2009 11:59 AM

I've been doing the damn thing. DFI mobo has been great but has had too many up and downs for me. On top of the one of my Kingston HyperX Elpidas blew out on me. Going to get some Perfest Storm CL8's or Cosair GT CL8's. Then I will RMA my Kingstons and upon getting the new ones back I plan on doing a contest or somethin to give them away.

thats pretty cool!! i heard good stuff about the perfect storm IC's

I was gonna go I7 but the board (MSI ECLIPSE) wound up being fubarred.... fubarred socket pins, and no post, I was gonna get a sweet deal on it though

Gunslinger 06-08-2009 04:42 PM

Yeah, I've seen a classified with bent pins as well, wonder how that happened. :)

So you liking your Classy Dr.Nip?

DrNip 06-08-2009 04:46 PM

Dunno. Won't be here until tomorrow.

Jeffro64 06-08-2009 04:57 PM

I bet there's a trail in the carpet already from the pacing back and forth. :D

Nah, he'd worn the carpet completely down so he put in hardwood floors to keep this from happening.

So you finally gettin some class tomorrow huh?
Congrats duder, your gonna love it with the DO. Slots to 110% is the trick for the super high bus speeds, although you may have to go to a w3540 or 950 to get the 5.4 you seek.

Is that Shannon (P223) I spy bugging you?:alien:

Is he no longer with 411 overkill bot team? Last time I spoke with him he was rocking over there.

DrNip 06-08-2009 05:12 PM

He was on 411's team then overclockaholics team then back on 411's team again. He's confused. I was once on 411's team when 411 1st started the bot team.

About that. Err there was a little mix up and well, there is no 411 team right now. Unless they added it back today. Anyway Shannon still rocks the 411 banner.

RomDominance 06-08-2009 05:16 PM

Aware of the fiasco that is the bot/411. Just kind of reading thru posts and saw his interest in your team. Mind you, not recruiting, I just like to talk with Shannon while bs'n with evga and wondered what the haps were.

Didn't know you were aware bud. No Shannon used to bench with us. It's all good though. Still buds.
