So then I bought another board to get onto the Lords contest... and guess what... way worse than the first... I took the same CPU that would not go past 5.4 ghz HT on... put it in my classy and only did a little testings and was able to get 5.8 to 5.9 wprime32m stable... the MSI board.. would fail constantly with memory issues... do yourselves a favor and look else where..

Instead of RMa'ing my boards.. I will be torching them for all the grief they have given me... I am actually glad to stop benching them.... Will never buy an MSI product again based upon this.. No RMA for me.. I don't want another board....
my gut told me the xpower was gonna be a POS
i got a rexIII its good but bios is only geared for subzero and gulftown

funny this is an official support thread but no support lol
