Easy Overclocking4
Pros:
If you want to just overclock a little this board will allow it with some very simple bios settings. However, if you want to go completely OC crazy it will allow that, too. Adding 8Gb RAM Corsair Dominator 2X2GB Kit PC2-8500 1066MHz DDR2 (TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF)and making some minor bios setting changes it is running perfectly even with a 3% OC. The dual gigabit LAN is very convenient. Two ESATA ports with power are an expansionists dream.

Cons:
The MSI drivers are poorly written. Go straight to the Nvidia website for drivers. The internal SATA ports on the forward edge of the board lay parallel to the face of the board making it very hard to plug cables in after it is installed in the case. You must install the RAM before the first video card or you will run into some interference.

Awsome Board!! 5
The cooling system is much better than any other 780i board on the market. It's a clean designed board. And, neat board with a good Raid system and good back connectors. This is the only 780i board that has solid caps, other than the A brand boards. however, their boards run horribly hot. Also, the board has lots of features and a X-FI sound card.
but, the stock BIOS is a kind of weird and unstable. flashed to the latest version and everything work perfect!!
