Man, under load I went away and came back seeing a flash from the board![]()
Tested 3 PSUs, 3 RAM sticks and 2 CPUs, all worked in other two boards but did not work in MSI.
Then checked it all out alone - it powers on but then switches off with a flash as if there's a short circuit somewhere.. there isn't anywhere but on the board, near a capacitor. Looks like on of the circuitry wires has broken walls. definitely a dead board.
I can't RMA, skanky MSI are asking me to pay $60 for the RMA, testing and replacement where by UK statutory law they have to provide me 12 months warranty at no cost![]()
They claim its their EU repair center that imposes these charges by default.
The above SuperPi 1M benchmark was at 3000MHz CPU, 2400MHz NB, 800MHz RAM 4-4-4-8-15 Unganged.
The rest of the benchmarks I ran, the Universe suite, are below [that server is "eating" all our uploaded results]:
I am currently on Abit AX78 at 2.7GHz stock volts although only installed one DIMM, first BIOS: http://global.phoronix-test-suite.co...64-32241-32236
The PWM has no problem so far, they are actually running very cool compared to what my MSI was running.
Thank you for all the info Achim
But I have a lot of work to do now before I can get to play about with that.
I still have C1 errors on all boards, they only go away if I run Corsair 800 RAM, no 1066 or 1000 RAM will boot, all of them give C1 for a while. Try and get hold of some 800 rated compatible RAM![]()














sensors-detect -> C1
Not that i think this is funny, the only thing beside stock was the cpu-multi at 13,5.
