MSI MEG X399 Creation review





For Ryzen Threadripper 2000 MSI released a new motherboard which we review today, and yes that would be the MEG X399 Creation. The board is stylish, loaded with features as subtle LED effects, terrific WIFI and obviously offers everything you need from quadruple x16 PCI-Express slots, multiple M2 SSD options, quad-channel memory and some beefy VRM.

Hey, yours is bigger than mine! Interestingly my scores match up on two systems(mobos.) Do you have the perf regulator option for CB benchmarks active in the BIOS or something?
Likely you do. I always disable weird 'Turbo' and Specific Benchmark performance enhancing features for my testing for the sake of objectivity:

Yes , cheat turn on, but its influence is less than 1-2% .This cheat also affects all the caches and results in the games
This processor has special "holes" for voltage , which can significantly change the result (for example, 1.33 may have a worse performance than 1.32, this all depends individually on the specimen ) + phase switching frequency is required more than 600khz + Spread spectrum enabled (EMP will seriously affect the stability of the system, because we have 4 crystals and 16 phases)
maybe you need a new BIOS, it's 1.22, it's not yet published, but it works well

what's your processor's batch?

Awesome review Hilbert, thanks for all the hard work! That mobo is rad and the mega 2990WX is insane(Ultra Comboooooooooooooo!)! I have it's smaller brother the 1950x and love it, it has been a rock same with my mobo the MSI X399 GAMING PRO CARBON AC. Makes me wonder what will X499(or what ever the next tech will be called) and 7nm update be like!!!? What a time to be alive lets just hope the 17th will be amazing as well then it will all be one for the books.

quick question:
what is the practical use/purpose of the odd looking metal USB 3.1 onboard connector next to the motherboards powers connector...?
what can you connect to that thing...?
(my 8700k motherboard also has one but i have zero clue what it is made/used for...)
