Software Overview


MSI’s software suite includes a fantastic selection of useful utilities to help monitor system temperatures and optimise your hardware. The Command Center allows you to adjust the CPU’s core multiplier, system voltage and BCLK. It’s also possible to tweak the CPU in a similar fashion to the BIOS and adjust each core’s multiplier. The program has the option to monitor fan speeds and automatically tune the system based on thermal loads.

Advanced users can view the current memory timings and optimise a number of settings such as the tCL, tRCD and much more.

MSI’s Fast Boot is handy to launch Windows and ignore the traditional post initiation sequences. On another note, the Go2BIOS button reboots the PC and allows you to access the BIOS without having to frantically press the keyboard.

The Gaming App features three modes and adjusts the CPU’s frequency based on your selection. For example, the Gaming Mode sets the CPU to its maximum turbo frequency while the Silent Mode prioritises low noise over a higher CPU clock. In this compact interface, there’s a number of applications to help customise the user experience.

The LED application is a wonderful addition to customise the motherboard’s Mystic Light illumination and choose from a number of vibrant effects. On another note, you can download an Android app to control the lighting from your smartphone.

MSI’s RAMDisk is incredibly useful to utilise spare memory and create an ultra-fast RAMDisk. This makes applications run very quickly and ensures no aspect of your system is going to waste.8-1
