promising a board can boot at 230 bclock on air "easily" without any problems because one cpu/board combo can do it is... a little bit bold... hence my poking

its a good board, no doubt, but certainly not the bclock killer that gets higher bclocks on air than even the classified like gary said

and hey, if the pcb wouldnt be brown it would look really nice too
msi is definately improving from their eclipse and eclipse plus flops...
This board boots all of my D0s at 230 without a single problem, it just requires a couple of settings to be changed that normally are not. I can get to 235 with the MSI OC utility (boot at 230) but air/water cooling capabilities are a problem by that point for stable operation.

I never said it clocks higher than a Classified, only that it will boot at higher Bclks and air clocking is great, something none of the other X58 boards will do with the same CPU and memory combination. The board has its faults as outlined in the preview but if you buy one, I might just teach you how to overclock it.
