Official MSI P7N Diamond (780i) Discussion/Review/Overclock/Guide/BIOS Thread

[xraymtb]

If you read the updates on the first page, I was the user who reported the substantial difference in SLI performance when using the lower slot for SLI on the P7N Diamond.

I wanted to let others users know that I have since had reason to move the card to the lower slot again and found this time that I only lost 2000 pts in 3DMark06 (compared to my previous 4000 pt loss).

Interestingly, I have also dropped from 2Gb of RAM to 1Gb, suggesting that my real performance drop due to slot change is most likely to be in line with others - around 700 pts or so. I will confirm when I get my other stick of RAM back.

I found that my board will run much better with just 1gb of ram once i try and run 2 it flakes out on me.
Also i have just turned it on and it wont run at stock speeds now every time i go into the bios i get about 3 to 6 moves and it locks up think it should rma this board back and get something else just dont know what
