The free overclocking went well for some ...
- wprime at 6G easy
- 1300MHz+ core 5870 easy

I think MSI should speed up themselves, and hire Oskar Wu, FAST.... If the overclocker is right, that DFI makes motherboards no more, he will be availible?? And MSI BIOS sucks in generel... Ram timings anyone?
Problem is combination of the two: bios and hardware. To be honest, the Trinergy has the feel of being a solid mainboard, but there are three things they need to fix:

- vcore (1.7V max) ~ bios (MSI specific)
- 2:8 divider ~ bios (All brand, except gigabyte)
- Coldbug/boot ~ (All brand, except evga)

I'm not trying to come across as a fanboy, but that's how things are. If these three issues are fixed, you'll see the board fly at very high freqs. I mean ... it's really unfair, and incorrect, to generalize all products based on what was a problem in the past. Unbiased opinions (yeahyeah, I know ... ironic probably) are needed to evaluate a board.

I'll comment later, still in Taipei atm.
