    Since using a 92mm fan, my temp is now 56 (was 66 using a smaller fan and 80+ w/o any fan).

    Cable is messy, but here is a picture...

    Okay, you know when the board POSTs, usually with other brands I've owned, it makes one or two beeps only...but with this MSI board (and my former X58 Platinum SLI) it makes more than two beeps in quick succession...is this normal? Does your board make that many beeps, too, or is it just mine?

    Looks like if I have OCed my board from within the BIOS as soon as I launch OverClocking, my system crashes. I still have yet to install GreenPower even though I have gone back and insert the module. Hope MSI can come up with a better working one soon. It's useless otherwise as of now.

    Hey, guess what? With the previous BIOS (v. 1.0) I couldn't do 21x200 stable, now I can do it and run LinX without crashing...think 1.0B25 is good so far. How is 1.1B1 different?

    Yes, then too many chipsets sharing one crappy heatsink that's what happens.

    Yes, but who needs it? 8+8+8 or 16+16+16 is the same

    Classified is same way, must put a fan on mosfets heatsink otherwise temps 80c idle and up to 100 benching but board shuts down so no damage. With fan 80c while benching high overclock.

    This board looks real nice I love the black and blue scheme of it! Hopefully it turns to be a good clocker once the bugs worked out I might switch!

    Isn't "loadline calibration" a gigabyte feature?

    Guys (and Ladies), it's a platform problem. These are sad designs and the user takes the brunt. It sucks, but remember nf4?

    eBuyer got one, well, five! http://www.ebuyer.com/product/165696
