    MSI Big Bang-XPower Motherboard Sneak Peek

    If you open a ticket with MSI they will give you a new BIOS that fixes that problem (I have the same issue but not really willing to run a Beta BOIS since I did like you and just moved the drives back to SATA3G). I have been using the board for about a month now and because I haven't gotten...

    MSI Big Bang-XPower Motherboard Sneak Peek

    I don't know how it missed that. Not sure it is a really good list though it also only has one Corsair listing as well.

    MSI Big Bang-XPower Motherboard Sneak Peek

    I wonder if it doesn't like GSkill RAM. The site doesn't have a memory chart to check it against. The XMP worked fine with my RAM except it set 24 instead of 20 all the other settings were correct.

    MSI Big Bang-XPower Motherboard Sneak Peek

    That kind of sucks. I tried a couple different apps last night and I didn't notice any slow downs or "mini freezes". Now you got me wondering if I am missing something. The one odd thing I noticed about the board is if I have anything plugged into the SATA 3 ports my board wont post. The...

    MSI Big Bang-XPower Motherboard Sneak Peek

    I haven't noticed anything like that but I am coming from a x48 w/C2Q so an i7 is just crazy fast to me. Did you update the bios on both boards?

    MSI Big Bang-XPower Motherboard Sneak Peek

    Does that RAM have an XMP profile that sets it to 1600 or are you manually setting it? The reason I ask is because my Corsair is 1066 but has an XMP profile for 1600 and I just set the bios to enable the profile and it runs at 1600.

    Chance to buy R3E or Big bang

    I just got the MSI board up and running and I have no complaints. But I have not tried overclocking it yet and SeaFoam seems to be having some issues with his as he RMA'ed it. I have no experience with the RE3 so not opinion there.

    MSI Big Bang-XPower Motherboard Sneak Peek

    I am using a Kingwin LZ-1000 that [H] reviewed and it allows for the 2 8-pin plus the GPU 6-pin plus 2 video cards and seems pretty stable so far. I haven't really OC'ed yet so I can't answer that part.

    MSI Big Bang-XPower Motherboard Sneak Peek

    On my 980x it took it to 3.9GHz. I did not spend a lot of time with it OC'ed just launched CPU-Z to check the OC and powered back down and turned it off. I know not a lot of help but dang family interfering in hardware land:D
