MSI K8N Diamond nForce4 SLi (Socket 939) PCI-Express Motherboard

[Jaymes]

Hi everyone!

I have just purchased the MSI K8N Diamond nForce4 SLi (Socket 939) PCI-Express Motherboard and would like to know some of your views on it.

I also need to know what is the best suited RAM for this board. I have been told that Corsair memory works well with MSI. Is this true?

Can anyone help?

THe Diamond series are P4 boards........

So you are saying that the AMD Athlon's won't work on them? That can't be right. If you are saying that, then you are the first person to have told me that.

He is wrong!...

That is an athlon 64 motherboard (socket 939).


One Review here..

Yes Corsair memory is fine.

Obviously there's review of the product and it exist..... Look at the MSI site, I don't see it on their list of 939 mbs........ Just another SLI board.

It's definitely an AMD board. I called MSI today and they clarified the matter.

Okay, can anyone who actually has one or has worked on one comment on the pro's and con's?
