What is the difference between these foxconn models?
6150K8MD-8EKRSH
6150K8MA-8EKRS

Is this board compatible with Corsair TWINX2048-3200C2 2GB Kit DDR400 XMS3200 Memory?
 
The D is an updated version of the other one and has some better BIOS options. I'd go for the D personally. Yes that memory will be fine

That does pose a problem for me then cause I really need to purchase this board soon.
 
Might need to ask Foxconn about this cos i've had a quick look and can't see anything. Not released in the UK either

I wonder if there is even a release date cause I've got to come up with a board soon.
 
There are NO other 6150 boards with DVI and vcore. Newegg has a jetway 6100 with dvi and vcore options, but the lack of bios updates scares me away.

the -D board has a pcie x1 slot in place of the 1st pci slot, and adds HD audio. It's probably ROHS compliant but don't quote me on that.

I emailed foxconn and asked when the -D board would be available and they replied on 6/27 that they had 1000 in Fullerton and were waiting for retailers to stock it. They suggested that I bug my favorite retailers. I had already sent an email to newegg suggesting they carry this product.

I'd like to buy a board soon too.

Well shiznit. Looks like I won't be able to get the board in time for my favorite lan.
 
if my memory serves correct, the 8EKRS (yes, I own one) has a Realtek 8xx audio codec, which sounds good enough through my crap headphones. The board's extremely stable, and I highly suggest going with this board. No comment on the other one.
 
Just wondering. I will probably pick one up if the -D model is not available soon. What's your OC like?
