    Strange new link on MSI's Neo4 Platinum SLI webpage

    so basically there is something wrong with the hardward of the mobo, something that a new bios cannot overcome, that prevents X2 CPU's and SLI from performing correctly?

    Strange new link on MSI's Neo4 Platinum SLI webpage

    what kind of bullshit is this? they try and disguide a major recall as a "free upgrade" or "re-energizing"? that is spin Brit Hume would be proud of

    7800GTX doesn't fit into K8N Neo4 SLI/Platinum!?

    so to be clear, a single 7800GTX does or does not fix a neo 4 plat (non-SLI)

    3rd HD corrupt..cannot be coincidence

    After overhauling my system, i've gone through 3 maxtor HD's only to find each had failed. I ran memtest to secure the RAM. All parts are new, so I cannot figure out why these new HDs fail within a week. Could the mobo or CPU be dammaged and contribute to this?

    Bad preformance w/ X800 XL

    Since I built my new system, game preformance has been sub-par. I'm getting 30's fps in CS:S - and 20's in BF 2 @ 1680x1050 no AA/AF. On top of that, my 3dMark05 score is around 3600. CPU and HD tests reveil no problems, although the HD had a average seek time of 14's. what could be the...

    fresh install windows...crashes, errors, frustration

    thanks, i'll try that. but one main problem still exists. when left on overnight, in a very cool area, my system will crash everytime. It locks up just like it did when running on the bad RAM. I ran the new stuff for 10+hours in memtest, i'm pretty sure its fine. Could a corrupt slave HD...

    fresh install windows...crashes, errors, frustration

    ok, new RAM seems to get my OS running fine, but on a second HD certain videos skip around a bit, with no fluctuations in CPU or HD activity. is there any way to fix the files that shudder and shake around?
