Second question is it work moving to the MSI AM3 board w 1333 or 1600 DDR3 over the DKA790GX Platinum I am now running w DDR2 1066 I am guessing that on eith platform I will hit a wall with a max overclock of the 550 at 3.9 just wondering how much faster it would be than the DDR2 platform running at 3.7 and would it be worth the little cost to move to. I would expect increased bandwidth but in day day usage would it be noticeable and would it be noticeable gaming w a pair of 3870's in Xfire at 1900x1200
IIRC 1.8 is a stable bios direct from MSI. You can find the 1.9 beta in the first post in the thread
