msi 790 fx-gd70 thread

[neo mike]

Well I tend to agree that it is a good board, but msi just have not got the bios going. I am at 1.8b4 and still can't get my ram stable at 1600. 1333 cl6 is geeat runs well. But 1600 fails prime 1 second after it starts. And the computer does not crash. Prime just stops with errors. This at no oc on cpu or cpu nb

I have hit 3000 nb like 1 time, very hard on this board to hit 3000 nb. The problem is as nice as the layout is, and all the hype, what makes a good board after layout is BIOS and how well it overclocks and stability, MSI needs major bios work on this board, and for me i look at it like this board has been out for quite some time, and still buggy bios.

Who knows, when they get to near final bios it may rock, but the way its going with as many bios that have been released and there still very buggy it dont look like it. You look at the post your C3 results, Best ddr 3 for AMD, there are some sweet clocks in those threads, i dont recall seeing any from this board, there mostly all from Crosshair iii and Gig UD5P, now why is that.

Some swear by this board, some dont like it, everybody is intitled to there opinion, but onething is for sure there are bios issues.
