SonDa5 - you are still stating that there is a "missing" prime95 sticker on that board. I have told you that the MTC - Media Testing Center - sticker is for pre-release media and testing samples. You confirmed this with MSI after I said it how many times over and you are still posting it.

My MPower board is here, and in perfect condition. I must say that the photos do not do this board justice! It is visually stunning!!

I'm glad I chose this board over the other one I was considering..

After I communicated with Alex through another MSI employee the matter has been resolved. to my satisfaction. Check out this post.

I think I might have copied and pasted the photos without reading the content for the sake of sharing the photos that I have so far.

I was let down about the confusion of the Prime95 certification and stickers. It's not your fault. It was other info being put out.

Hoping to get my MB running soon.

1. I'm trying to get Alex to talk to their "HQ FAE" guy, who can apparently explain the VRM in detail to me. It is a pretty strange setup. 

They use this uP1618 controller, which according to this datasheet (http://goo.gl/MpOJE) is a 6+2 phase controller. Which is strange because it is clearly a tri-plane board (probably 12+2+2 or something like that). Guessing that the VRMs themselves (http://goo.gl/ezPQi these) have some way to modulate the PWM.

 

2.  I have some pics up here: http://www.overclock.net/t/1300094/msi-z77-mpower-reflex99s-preview-shots

 

3. My CPU should be here tomorrow!!!!!

I am loving that yellow and black case biggrin.gif - make me want to say "Go Hawkeyes!", but then I remembered I was glad I didn't watch the game Saturday ( lol, ugh, shrug, sigh) :'(
