    MSI system no longer boots - dead mobo???

    Ditch it and get a new one. I bought 3 same mobo and 2 of them die within a year. MSI support and RMA also sucks. They had a design flaw in this mobo.

    How do you remove the front door from the Chieftec/Antec SX1040?

    click here See those white latches next to the top drive cage and the bottom next to the purple fan holder? THere are totally 6 latches. You have to work on a pair (side by side) at a time. I usually unlatch the bottom pair first. push the pair latches outward and pull the front bezel out.

    What makes the Palomino able to hit higher clock speeds compared to the Thunderbird?

    They are both 0.18um Palomino has better design, better timming, better floorplan, lower power consumption, less heat As you will see in the future the Barton will be better than the Tbred. Newer product has got to be better than older product. A really old rule of thumb ain't it?
