Squid1 Posted August 28, 2005 Posted August 28, 2005 Allright, I understand what the Ultra-D, the SLI-D and SLI-DR boards have. However, on both monarch and newegg I see a "Lanparty UT SLI-DR" (note "UT") with exactly the same specs as the non-UT board, just a little cheaper (has Karajan, dual gBE, dual SATA controllers). DFI's website does not list this board. What is the difference between the UT and non-UT versions of the SLI-DR boards?

Jimmy89 Posted August 28, 2005 Posted August 28, 2005 If i am not mistaken the UT board dosnt come with all of the Lanparty accessory's, such as the Front X, Carry Bag, and Cable Sleeving Kit. Other then that the UT and non UT are the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squid1 Posted August 28, 2005 Posted August 28, 2005 Thanks, guys. What is Front-X? Doesn't seem to be in the SLI-DR pictures on DFI's website. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenC Posted August 28, 2005 Posted August 28, 2005 It has front audio, firewire, and usb jacks. As well the motherdoard diag led's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squid1 Posted August 28, 2005 Posted August 28, 2005 What exactly is in the diagnosis LEDs on the front panel? I can't seem to find that on the DFI website. I assume it is a 3.5" floppy panel? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenC Posted August 28, 2005 Posted August 28, 2005 You have 4 led on the motherboard. The SLI motherboards also has a connector on the motherboard for the front X panel. Yes it fits a 3.5 bay. Here is how you read the diag led's 4 LEDs on = Power applied 3 LEDs on = CPU has been detected OK 2 LEDs on = RAM has been detected OK 1 LED on = VGA has been detected OK 0 LEDs on = System has booted to the Operating System. As long as you are in the BIOS including running memtest from the BIOS option, there will be one LED on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fletcherea Posted August 28, 2005 Posted August 28, 2005 How abouts would I get my hands on the front x thingy if i bought a UT version =D ? Anyone got an extra theyd like to pawn off to me =) ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squid1 Posted August 28, 2005 Posted August 28, 2005 I am not too interested in the LED panel if the LEDs do not do stuff during normal run. Can I control these LEDs via ACPI? But if I end up buying a SLI-DR board I will probably offer you to pay me the difference for the LP version and I could send you the extra stuff. Send email if you'd like that. But I cannot make promises, the ECC issue is holding up my decision. Although, it might be cool to put that "Lanparty inside" sticker on a SPARCstation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
