Review: MSI 970 Gaming motherboard

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 11/25/2014 10:28 AM | source: | 13 comment(s)

Join us as we review the MSI 970 Gaming, an affordable but high-end motherboard that has incredible good looks and a decent feature-set. We will pop an AMD FX 8370E processor onto it today. And hey, gaming at FullHD will be good even with the latest graphics cards. You can read a full review right here at Guru3D of course.

Your review says 4700Mhz required 1.46v vcore and stayed at 50c however CPU-Z shows 1.51v with a socket temp of 61c in HW monitor.

Their board design is really growing on me. I'm in love with the Gaming 9 AC or ACK boards.

I'm quite surprised how they managed to get these features in at a good cost too.

BLEH!

Got the A88X version of this board in my backup rig. It's rather cool I must say.
