A BMW owner eh? It looks like you’re not terribly fussy Andy. Lol. Jokes aside, I quite like the looks of this board and I never noticed the VRM heatsink was in the shape of a M. I wonder if it was done on purpose or just a coincidence. I’ll have to assume the former.
I see another batch of mobo’s have arrived at the offices for testing, this one being among them but I won’t be testing any of them. I’ll ship them off to the junior hacks for evaluation.
Would like to see what can be done with an ASUS Maximus VI Gene, but that 5.0 ghz is impressive even if that voltage is pushing it a bit.
😮
Great board by MSI.. I’m really impressed by the design as well as the performance.
Do you guys even proof read?
Test system
Asus Z77-A
Intel i7-3770k?!?
And 5 Ghz windows stable on just 1.385 Vcore? Uh, no. What was your ring frequency and voltage?
