(seems like i remember reading on the german forum from what I could tell its' supposed to have some sort of fix for memory and voltages?, so it might not be total crap, just speculation. my german isn't that good)

Are you placing memory in DIMM slot 1 and 2?
Are you setting voltage to 2.2V or 2.3V? ( You do this manually? I've always set mine to auto.)
Are you choosing dividers below 1:2? (same here, auto :s )
Are you changing RAM timings manually to the rated spec? (how would one know what these are?)

You have to do this before you know if its compatible. So far based on what you've said the Phenom compatibility is the issue and not the board since the memory controller is within Phenom. Also if your RAM is not specified as compatible (tested) the it isn't MSI's fault. I learnt that too.
