smeghead009 Posted February 15, 2003 Posted February 15, 2003 you can say what you will but ive owned and operated several different MSI boards and i find them all to be well built, stable, and very easy to OC. so on you Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeMoN Posted February 15, 2003 Posted February 15, 2003 i think that the mobo that i use has to be one of the best at oc'ing. i got a soyo kt-333 ultra platinum. my friend also has a gigabyte and he really likes it. the only thing that i like about msi is there video cards they can keep the mobos i'm staying with soyo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
