DFI LANParty nF4 SLI-DR: Overclocking and Stress Testing

Overclocking

Front Side Bus Overclocking Testbed
DFI LANParty nF4 SLI-DR
Processor: Athlon 64 4000+
(2.4GHz, 1MB Cache)
CPU Voltage: 1.55V (default 1.50V)
Cooling: Thermaltake Silent Boost K8 Heatsink/Fan
Power Supply: OCZ Power Stream 520W
Memory: OCZ PC3200 EL Platinum Rev. 2
(Samsung TCCD Memory Chips)
Hard Drive: Seagate 120GB 7200RPM SATA 8MB Cache
Maximum OC:
(Standard Ratio)
238x12 (Auto HT, 2-3-2-7, 1T, 2.9V)
2856MHz (+19%)
Maximum FSB:
(Lower Ratio)
318x9 (2862MHz) (Auto HT, 2.5-4-3-7, 2.9V)
(1:1 Memory, 1T, 2 DIMMs in DC mode)
(+59% Bus Overclock)

All benchmarks for the DFI LANParty UT nF4 Ultra-D were rerun with the updated drivers and test resolutions used in this roundup. Overclocking performance was essentially the same as we saw in the SLI roundup. The DFI was 2nd among the boards in Maximum OC at stock ratios, reaching 238x12. In Maximum FSB at lower multipliers, the DFI was #1 in the roundup, reaching 318x9.
