Massman Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 ... soon, when NDA is lifted. Kinda looking forward to this board, though, as it's already been thoroughly bug-tested by a famous Swedish overclocker. At launch date, you should also see a very nice video ... Anyway, here's a couple of quick "unbox" pics and vid. Pretty heavy board: 1.5KG! Quote
Mean Machine Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 XPower II - built with only the heaviest parts. Quote
Hondacity Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 looking at that vrm heatsink, i'm very excited about it Quote

Hondacity Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 i wonder if they're shipping with the new stepping. thats such a long wait though jan3 is so far out Quote
neliz Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 i wonder if they're shipping with the new stepping. thats such a long wait though jan3 is so far out If you mean the chipset.. it's probably a couple of months out. Quote
sin0822 Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 nice and heavy= good. How much does the heatsink alone weigh? Quote
K404 Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 Dear everyone. Please stop with gun-shaped heatsinks. Quote
l0ud_sil3nc3 Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 hopefully it oc better than it looks:D Quote
Mean Machine Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 hopefully it oc better than it looks:D Apparently, it does... http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=2159696 Quote
l0ud_sil3nc3 Posted December 28, 2011 Posted December 28, 2011 Apparently, it does... http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=2159696 nice to see the 1.66 strap working so well for you:) Quote
sin0822 Posted December 28, 2011 Posted December 28, 2011 I think that is a C2 stepping CPU with that block? Right? Quote
Patagonian Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Dear everyone. Please stop with gun-shaped heatsinks. Completely Agree Quote
Hondacity Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 i want crayons with different colors Quote
Massman Posted January 2, 2012 Author Posted January 2, 2012 So, Xpower-II is MSI's very first 4Way SLI board, so what better way to go for a round of 580s? . Tomorrow NDA lifts, but here's a teaser already Quote

Massman Posted January 2, 2012 Author Posted January 2, 2012 Trying to get the board ready for 5480MHz 3D11 (like on UD7), then it's time to get rid of the 580s ... Quote
Massman Posted January 2, 2012 Author Posted January 2, 2012 Lol, looks like you don't need a C2 ES sample for mental BCLK on this board. This CPU did ~155 on R4E and 154 on GD65-8D. Now, no more posts before NDA's up . Quote
Mafio Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 nice board, at least it seems it not kills itself like the 990fx do Quote
