Thats the right words, i dont see MSI as a long term overclocker, in the first stages it always works , but as time passes and i dont mean long time , few months , 6 months time the board is gone. Had 2 MSI's boards before and i wont buy them again.

My past experiences have been horrible with MSI... If you touch em in the wrong place or sneeze within 10 feet they just stop working.
 
Wow. Either I've had good luck or somethin. My board which did 3.2 on that OPTY 148 was a $51 refurb from Chief Value. LOL.

I guess if you handle it right and know what you're doing you should be ok :).

"As for handling it right and know what we doing" , i usually use a hammer to install the heatsink and 1400w drill to put the screws , and yea i dont know nothing about ps2 or fsb :D

I was refering to reliability of the components used in the motherboard itself doesnt last long when you overclock the system :)

I gave up on everything MSI - 2 motherboards and 1 graphics card have died on me :mad:

IMO they try to be 'expensive' in a 'cheap' way. Like painting their heatsinks gold and stuff like that :/

Got bored tonight and decided to clean the thermal pads off of my Swifty heatsinks and slap em on my mobo with some arctic adhesive... I've got about 11 more of these lil heatsinks, they're great. I think I like em better than my OCZ sinks, definately going to use these on my video cards!

sweet mate, anymore news on the eta of it?

Well reggies is off of bedrest now and back in the shop. He started working on my unit lst week and said that he would continue to work on it throughout this week. I guess the final parts for the cooler will also be here this week which means that it's going to be done soon with any luck.

Updates as soon as I have them :)
