De mannen van OC workbench hebben een review gemaakt van het DFI NB70-SC moederbord, welke is voorzien van de i845D chipset. Op de plank vind je onder andere één AGP slot, vijf PCI sloten, een CNR slot en 2 DDR banken. In het BIOS zijn wat basis overclock mogelijkheden aanwezig. Zo is de FSB in stapjes van 1MHz wat op te trikken en ook de RAM timing zijn wat bij te stellen. De performance is redelijk goed vergeleken met andere Pentium 4 borden. Hieronder een hap uit de conclusie:
It looks like DDR for Intel is here to stay. DFI being one of the most stable boards that we used has shown the capabilities of the DDR on P4. Although this board does not have great features, but this is probably the reason it can be priced very competitively against other brands. In fact, I was expecting some sort of a 6 channel audio to be implemented onto this board. An on board LAN port will also be a welcome.
The performance of this board is pretty good and I have a feeling that the BIOS can be further improved. Installation is very straightforward, we did not encounter any major hiccups so far. Stress testers like SuperPI went through loops, so is 3Dmark2001. For those who prefers to overclock, we managed to get our ES to run up to 15 x 112Mhz stable. 115Mhz POSTED but it's relatively unstable.
DFI's documentation is clear and precise. It's also a multi-language manual. According to pricewatch.com, this mainboard is now priced at USD 109 or SGD 199 which is cheap for a Intel based Pentium 4 DDR mainboard.
