compatibility problems?

Hello,

 

i have bought a DFI Lanparty nF4 Ultra-D in an online shop (but its not here at the moment).

 

I don't know if the components which I have work without problems. Can you help me?

 

1. Does the ASUS Extreme N7800GT work properly because i have read that the chipset cooler is a little bit to tall?

 

2. Does my 2x MDT 512MB PC3200 (doublesided) RAM work properly (200 MHz and Dualchannel)? (because I have read that the mainboard has problems with unknown RAM's)

 

3. Does a Scythe Katana CPU cooler fit on the mainboard without taking the space of the RAM/graphics card?

 

 

It would be nice of you if you can help me!

 

 

nice greetings

Hello,

 

ok then I have to buy new RAM.

 

What do you think about this:

 

G.Skill DIMM Kit 1024MB PC3200 DDR CL2-3-3-6 (PC400) (F1-3200PHU2-1GBZX)

 

http://www.gskill.com/f1-3200phu2-zx.html

 

 

Does it work properly (PC400, Dualchannel, CL2-3-3-6) ?

 

 

 

And another question:

I had a nForce 2 Board, there I had to deactivate ACPI in the BIOS...shall I do it with the Lanparty nF4 Ultra-D too?

The chipset cooler is exactly to ATX specifications. The video card will touch the shroud if 1. the case is not perfectly aligned causing the card to angle down into the shroud, 2, the card has extra material that is out of spec, 3. the motherboard is mounted to the case with the wrong standoffs changing the angle of the card.

@ bexer

 

but I want to overclock... isn't it possible to run the RAM's at standard clock with the divider ? Then you can overclock or not?

 

Does the Lanparty nF4 Ultra-D have an PCI-Fix and an PCIe-Fix (at which clock has the PCIe to run?)

 

 

@ ExRoadie

 

what do you mean with it...will the Asus Extreme N7800GT fit ?

it is clear that if the case, mainboard or video card are connected in a wrong way... it wont work.

but is there the space that it will fit?

is there a problem for the chipset cooler if the video card is over the cooler?

Since my Geil ONE's are in rma I'm using two old (and different) pc2700 256Mb modules right now. Can even overclock it, although it doesnt work in dual channel.

 

IMO the stories about how only expensive RAM will work with DFI are a bunch of fairy tales.
