MSI to offer 55% launch-day discount on P55 motherboards

Very nice.

Although looking at the bios version for the gd65 it says 1.41 in the test setup.

Now, at msi the latest gd65 bios is 1.21 while the gd80 is 1.4, which could show as 1.41. Hope they've not mixed up the model numbers in that test. :D

Or perhaps msi shipped it with the 1.41 beta bios.

Prob a beta bios?
 
shes here !!! thanks OcUK, Fatboy&Yewen in particular :D

Still going for the Biostar? You've got to take the MSI into consideration now after seeing how it performs.
Nah that would mean me spending time doing a nice forum thread for it lol. :D

I'll take the Biostar, besides it's going to be abit boring with all these MSI Virgins making a fuss over it being the Holy Grail or something like that lol. :p
 
Dam looks like i've missed the boat on this deal, although not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing, I suppose I won't be making an earlier than planned upgrade....

On the RAM, you wnat the lowest CAS latency you can get - CAS7 if you can find it or CAS8. I've got the Corsair Dominator CAS8 stuff.

The memory controller performace is supposed to be horrible with CAS9 - the MSI reviewers guide makes a big fuss about lower speed, lower CAS being faster if I recall correctly.

Damn! I went with Dominator XMS3 9-9-9-24. Hmm maybe I'll just stick it in and set it to 8, see what happens. lol.
 
Yewen or Fatboy, please can somebody update the delivery address on my GD80 order as requested in my post in the customer service forum.

Thanks a lot
 
Hi
I ordered a gd80 board in the 14:00 slot. I have not received any e-mails or calls regarding the offer to change to a different motherboard. My order is still in the warehous que, does this mean that i will get a GD 80 board?
