MSI Z77 MPOWER
testing by TGE

I have been testing this board a few days and I am definitely impressed with it. At $220 USD I think it its a absolutely a great bargain for the features and quality that it exhibits during my tests.

I will be testing this board throughout the next couple of weeks so I will be updating this often. Be sure to check back as I plan to test with some different CPUs and memory sets as well as push it even more with some tweaking on the tests as well
So Stay tune and check back often

I don't see thunderbolt or a PLX chip?

I will be able to say and show much more after NDA drops - hope you are hungry for some MPower information

 

[TheGoat Eater]

with NDA lifted I still am getting some stuff put together, but I want to leave you with a nice sub 5 super pi 32m screen shot. I will be making this write up and review in segments so I can take time to focus on different things as I have only had a limited time with the board (though I love it)

Apparently a RAM manufacturer has made a set of matching sticks:

yeah I saw that last night for the first time as well - nice for those wanting to stick with a theme.

* I have updated the first post and have added a BIOS gallery for your viewing pleasure
