1) Does this mean I should steer clear of DFI motherboards?
2) If so can anyone recommend a solid nforce 4 motherboard which can handle a heavy load 24/7 without crashing.
3) Also are the NForce 4 boards mature enough to warrant a purchase or should I just buy a $200 graphics card for my NForce 4 XP2400 system and wait awhile.
Thanks

I leave my PC running 24/7. I often have it running at 100% cpu utilization for more than 24 hours.Once again we saw a DFI motherboard fail when it comes to long-term stress testing. By “long-term,” we mean in excess of 24 hours. While most of the latest heavy hitters from the likes of ABIT, ASUS, and MSI will literally run error free for days under 100% load, that is not the experience we have had with DFI motherboards.
