DFI Announces SD630-H110 Socket LGA1151 Motherboard

DFI, which is focusing on IPC motherboards these days, launched the SD630-H110, an entry-level socket LGA1151 motherboard based on Intel H110 Express chipset, and built in the ATX form-factor. Designed with a focus on legacy connectivity, the board seats a 6th generation Core "Skylake" processor, powers it with a simple 6-phase VRM, and wires it to two DDR3 DIMM slots, supporting up to 16 GB of dual-channel DDR3L-1600 memory; and a PCI-Express 3.0 x16 slot. A PCI-Express 2.0 x4 slot (open-ended) and five legacy PCI slots make up the rest of its expansion area.

Storage connectivity includes four SATA 6 Gb/s ports. Legacy connectivity includes four serial COM ports, with one RS232 connector, an LPT port by header, 8-bit GPIO, a feature-rich LPCIO controller with EXT-RS232/RS485 connector options, PS/2 combo port, and a number of USB 2.0 ports. Modern connectivity includes two gigabit Ethernet interfaces, driven by Intel I210AT and Intel I219LM controllers; 6-channel HD audio, four USB 3.0 ports, DVI, and HDMI 2.0 display output.

cdawallI still have 2 or 3 s754 boards of theirs. Mostly NF3 stuff, for when I get nostalgic.
Those nF3 Ultra boards (for both 754 and 939) were just something unbeliavable at that time. :)

ewww!

I feel weird looking at that board, with some but a small bit of nostalgia... Like if being transported to the 90's and early 2000.

Pros:
-5x PCI
-Green PCB

Cons:
-2 RAM slots
-4 sata ports
-Non-cooled CPU section

Nostalgia, but it isn't worth hassle actually. If it had 4 RAM slots and 6+ sata ports, I would buy it!

Me too.

In other news, I just learned that Supermicro is planning to break into consumer motherboards soon... Crazy world.

Ah, now if it only had an AGP port. That would be proper legacy, lol.
FreedomEclipseactually it is - Its the same DFI but without a few key people that helped put their brand out there. They never stopped making boards for the non-commercial market. breaking into the enthusiast market for them was most likely a 'proof of concept' to show that they could do it. They went out there, had a few laughs and good times doing it then it was back to the grind.

The market is already pretty saturated with motherboard manufacturers as it is.

I do think they should do a limited run of skt 1151 or X99 boards to commemorate the fact that they were once a fairly big player in the enthusiast market.
I was gutted when they exited the enthusiast market. The advanced features on some of those boards were like no other. Real shame.

XL-R8RThis company has come SO far these days! Such quality and awesomesauce.





I'll leave this here for the people who didnt get my sarcasm.


RIP to the REAL DFI lol

Such humble beginnings and such quality (at the time) products.... such a shame those nasty P45/X48 AND P55/X58 motherboards put the last nail in DFI's coffin. Everything before that time was pretty much golden.
I used to be big into overclocking and used DFI boards for years. do you know why they stopped making ATX motherboards?

Their sekret sauce they got from Abit left, the Bios guy, and I'm sure the RMA costs ran them thin.

I miss this board sooo much. I miss DFI. I had to sell this board to a member on the forums here maybe 8 years ago because I lost my job. :banghead:
