MSI Readies Big Bang XPower X58 Motherboard
MSI seems to be almost ready with a new high-end motherboard for the socket LGA-1366 Intel Core i7 platform. The new MSI Big Bang XPower motherboard is based on the usual Intel X58 Express + ICH10R chipset, and offers six PCI-Express x16 slots, which which it can support CrossFireX, SLI, and still have room for dedicated PhysX accelerators or other PCI-E devices. The XPower also features support for SATA 6 Gb/s and USB 3.0 using additional controllers.

The CPU is powered by a 16-phase DrMOS PWM, which draws power from two 8-pin power connectors. It makes use of High-C capacitors for higher durability. An additional 6-pin PCI-Express power input adds electrical stability to the PCI-Express x16 slots. The socket is wired to six DDR3 DIMM slots for triple-channel memory support, which are powered by a 3-phase VRM.

Man first Asus makes a complete ripoff of eVGA and now MSI?? Atleast MSI isn't a total ripoff and somewhat original.

"Q1 in 2010, and it already looks like we're supposed to spell "promising" with the "I" before the "M.""

Typo.. Should be S before the I.

Hope they fixed the turbo lock on it.

So why wasn't this announced at CES???

Here was the original link.

How are you making it do that everytime you post a link to an article? Got me intrigued. :Dizzy:

love the look of the board...except it's really busy around the socket. Total whore to insulate.
