    The idea of putting a picture on the pcb is unique but they picked the wrong one as for anyone other than a female that would be considered just plain wrong.

    How could they fall for that joke? News site's criticism of sources is just depressing nowadays. Techpowerup = new Inq?

    would b cool tho to have a nice big pict on the PCB that looks cool with it.


    ok how long before you guys think theinq and techpowerup figured out they posted a false pic?
    and how long do you think it will take before other hardwaresites copy this (so called ) news from theinq and techpowerup.

    Was just about to say that. I know that some DVD Roms are available in SATA now, but MSI then alienates about 99.9% of the CD/DVD ROM using market. And then they decide to keep a floppy port available though? Seems like some companies really have there priorties messed up...

    Ahhh... I didn't see the black connecter, and I thought the yellow port was for the floppy. My mistake.
