MSI Big Bang XPOWER Intel X58 Motherboard Review @ Legit Reviews

All of the gaming and benchmarking fun that can be had out of this motherboard. Not sure I like the idea of it being named Big Bang. Gives a couple visuals that might not be right, or even shocking at times. Last thing I want is my board going boom on me.

"The MSI Big Bang XPower will support up to six single slot graphics cards for some hefty multi-monitor use. It also supports the latest Quad-SLI and CrossFireX technology from NVIDIA and ATI. If you are looking to do some extreme overclocking with the new Intel Core I7 980X you will need a board that can supply enough power. Under Extreme overclocking conditions the I7 980X can draw around 480 Watts, which is too much for a single 8pin cpu connector to supply. The MSI Big Bang XPower was designed for such a circumstance! The keen folks over at MSI added a second 8pin CPU connector to the Big Bang XPower! There should be no issues with power when pushing the latest processors to the maximum frequencies. They also decided to add a 6pin PCI-e which will aid when overclocking the graphics cards!"

Focus, Focus I was talking all about the board exploding.
