I'm not up on it because I'm not using a nforce board anymore but there may be even newer their usually is because there a new drivers about every mouth but nv only put out officials like once or twice a year

Here is a 639 re-Mix that will work with some NF2 boards. I believe you can get the Nforce2R and Nforce2Gb chipsets on EPoX and MSI boards, they have a newer south bridge design that benefits from the re-mix as it is able to use some NF4 features (Not all) so If you have a board with the newer chipset like my EPoX 8RDA6+Pro I would (And do) use the re-mix. On my older ABIT NF7-S and MSI K7N2 Delta L boards I use the 5.10's

lol, I don´t know, I thought they were for the nforce 2 also, I am using them without problems but I have installed them over the 5.10 pack because it doesn´t have the memory controller and something more

I just got the 6.39 remix set and its been working nicely so far.

I use to use the latest nforce4 ones, but the audio drivers aren't as good. I still find 5.1's are best IMO. With the new audio drivers, if i changed a setting in nvmixer the sound would stop for 2 or so seconds...really bothered me.

The re-mix is a combination of 5.10s and 6.39s, some NF2 some NF4.

RIV@NVX · Apr 17, 2005, 03:39 PM

Will these (remixed) work for NF3 boards?

PandaZ3 · Apr 17, 2005, 04:36 PM

I'm not sure about the NF3 boards, certainly the NF4 drivers that will work on a NF2 will work on a NF3, but the re-mix has some NF2 drivers too and I would be more wary of them on a NF3 board
