Hello!
As promised, more competitions brought to you yet again MSI.
A much easier competition this time with no hardware limitations of any sort and one that anyone can do
FIND THE EGGS AND WIN A MSI SandyBridge xxxx-GD80 MOTHERBOARD
To celebrate the launch of SandyBridge XXX MSI is offering OcUK Forum members the chance to win a MSI xxxx-GD80 Motherboard.
??? is the new Intel chipset for Sandy Bridge LGA1155 CPU’s. ??? is positioned above P67 with a higher price and more features. ??? enables use and overclocking of the Intel HD Graphics 2000/3000 that is built into Sandy Bridge processors. ??? through the Intel HD 2000/3000 graphics provides Quicksync Video and Clear Video HD Technologies not previously available on the P67 platform (These features are only available whilst using the ??? onboard VGA outputs or via discrete graphics cards with any MSI ??? board supporting Lucid Virtua technology)
OC Genie II
On the new ??? OC Genie II really excels in its performance. This because now OC Genie II is not limited to only the CPU and Memory, but it can OC the integrated graphics as well. But there is more! If you enable OC Genie II together with the Intel SRT SSD Caching feature our OC Genie will push your system performance even higher.
SRT (Smart Response Technology) SSD Caching
A truly new feature is the possibility to use a SSD to cache data from your hard drives and boost their performance. This can be useful if people don’t have enough money to buy a big SSD or if you have a 2nd small SSD left. More about SSD Caching and how it works can be found at Tom’s Hardware;
Green is the performance of an SSD (220MB/S). The black line is the performance of a normal HDD (30MB/s). The Red and Blue lines are the performance line of the Intel SRT SSD Caching feature, which means that a SSD is used to cache the HDD. You notice that the first run it has no effect because it needs to cache all the data. The 2nd and 3rd time the performance triples to > 100MB/s.
GPU Virtualisation
MSI are continuing its long lasting partnership with Lucid through the inclusion of the Virtu GPU virtualization technology with the upcoming MSI ??? Mainboards.
Through the integration of Lucid’s Virtu technology. MSI’s ??? based mainboards are able to combine the best features of Intel’s HD2000 and HD3000 integrated graphics such as Lightning quick video decoding and the power of discrete graphics cards such as MSI’s Lightning or Hawk series Graphics cards.
Utilizing Lucid’s Virtu technology allows MSI’s ??? mainboards to have low power consumption during light graphical workloads, like playing web games or viewing videos and give the graphical horsepower you need when playing 3D games.
MSI will have a complete lineup of ??? based mainboards with Virtu technology. All based on MSI’s renowned Military Class II components, like xxxx-GD80, MSI’s mainboard with three way graphics supporting AMD CrossFireX and NVIDIA SLI technology. All MSI ??? mainboards are equipped with MSI’s one click overclocking technology OC Genie II boosting not only the Processor speed, but also the Intel HD2000/3000 graphics and memory speeds, of course also available on xxxx-GD65. For HTPC users, MSI offers the xxxMA-ED55 in a microATX form factor and has the same high quality components and dual graphics capabilities.
