Famous last words!!!
I've discovered that the "expert" board has killed both my CPUs!!! Neither the 4400 or Opty will boot.

I got loan of a 3000+ for now.

I built a number of machines for my office with biostar+geforce6100 boards and they are rock solid, the integrated graphics arent bad either. Looks like a good board

I had trouble with my integrated geforce 6150. I had never heard of hypermemory, and thought "Hey, 256 MB of video memory sounds pretty good." I had a gig of ram, but the video card ate that up so it was like I had a crappy video card anyway.

I will never get hypermemory again

I have one of these that I am building today. Anyone know what is in the bios??? I guess I'll find out. I will post later for any that are interested.

got to say 939's are still the way to go for a lot of people in my opinion as ewiz still has those 3800x2 oem for 83 or maybe it was 86 dollars. get a 20 dollar heatpipe cooler and they oc to 2.6ghz ish. I'm suprised to hear a dfi expert board was frying cpu's did you try them in other motherboards I suspect? and The psu is fine? I mean its not unheard of but I thought those expert nf4 sli boards from dfi were awesome.
