Can the MSI H81I Mini ITX LGA1150 overclock out off the box pentuim g3258 ?

Hi everyone Im building a mini itx gaming computer and I want to know if the MSI H81I can overclock the g3258 easily and out off thé box ( I dont have any other cpu to make a BIOS update )
Thanx

Obviously voice inflection doesn't come across well in typing.  If we're here only to sing MSI's praises, it's not a forum.
"Fix the attitude" is little harsh considering MSI seems to be the only one following Intel's wishes.  Perhaps you missed the light hearted "Peer pressure:  Come on MSI...everybody's doin' it!  Lol" and the part where I said I like the board? ASUS, Gig and others as well as other MSI boards can run the little Haswell multiplier up, this H81i, bummer...nope.
No, overclocking it is not endorsed by Intel, MSI or anyone else for that matter and no company can endorse cranking a 3.2 chip to 4.7.  However, the web is full of H81/g3258 overclocks.  Like, for instance, Tom'sHardwareguide.com.  We all read the specs (or should) but as is well publicized, you don't need the expensive Z boards to work low end magic.
I've used MSI components since the Athlon 750 CPU was new and still have an old MSI GeForce 4 Ti 4200 in a drawer out of nostalgia. I would simply like to play with the multiplier and tinker up to 4.0 or something modest, just to see.    Heck, even ECS is doing it.  I wanted to stay with MSI products since I'm happy with them.  As a board, it's fine.  The news about updating the BIOS and rolling up the multiplier just isn't true.  (Yet)
Edit-Ok...I missed this: "Rules- Attack, abuse or otherwise 'bash' MSI or its products. We are only interested in providing help to users having problems with their hardware and seeking assistance."
Now I understand.  In a way the links in the next post help.  They all still endorse MSI products by specifying which boards are g3258 multiplier friendly.

  • MSI H61I-E35-B3 Mini ITX and Intel Xeon LGA1155 Cpu ?

    Hi,
    I've bought MSI H61I-E35-B3 Mini ITX board, it supports LGA1155 processors, core i3 / i5 / i7. My question is - have anyone tested this board with Intel Xeon processor ? For example Intel Xeon E3-1235 3.20GHz LGA1155. I've read in some other Mini ITX LGA 1155 boards descryptions, that they suport this cpu's. Maybe this one can also support it.

    It's not in the supported list;  http://eu.msi.com/product/mb/H61I-E35--B3-.html#/?div=CPUSupport
    Recommend to confirm with MSI Tech Support; http://support.msi.com

  • Bought a Mac Mini.  at 18 day's old it started to lock up and not function.  Took it in and they wiped and reinstalled it.  Well at 24 day's old it's been sitting in the box not being used.  First and last Mac for me. But can I get something for the junk?

    I have pulled it out of the box and put 2 Mac approved mem sticks in it to boost it to 8 Gigs mem and it still locks up and freazes..  So many people told me Mac was the way to go...  1500 dollers could have bought me a great pc laptop.  Now I have a wirless mouse keyboard and a mac mini (aka Brick) that allowed me to donate money to a cause that is helping buildings and companies out side of the US.  While I have junk..  It's still under warranty and I reinstalled the os after the new mem sticks.  Again.. locks up and does nothing.  What can I do with this?  Toss it in the trash?  Any info on what I might do with it.. Please help!

    It would be most helpful if you updated your system information:
    Please reconcile the following
    at 18 day's old it started to lock up and not function. Took it in and they wiped and reinstalled it. Well at 24 day's old it's been sitting in the box not being used.
    ... I reinstalled the os after the new mem sticks.
    If your Mini is anything less than six months old it would be running Lion, not 10.6.1, nor would it have been necessary to "reinstall the OS". Any help that anyone can provide is predicated on your system configuration so it's important.
    If you are running Lion then boot your Mini while holding the D key. This will load Apple Hardware Test which will enable you to test your memory. "Mac approved" memory is sort of vague, and even memory that is allegedly designed to meet your Mini's specification may fail. There few reputable memory vendors.
    "Apple installed" memory is more meaningful, and indicates Apple has tested it and guarantees its function. Otherwise all bets are off with a claim of "Mac approved". You will have to verify that yourself with Apple Hardware Test.
    If your Mini was running, or ever ran OS 10.6.1 for that matter, it is close to three years old.
    You must clear up these uncertainties before anyone can help.

  • I have an older Airport Extreme (disc shaped) that we use with my wife's PowerBook (OS 10.5.8) and my MacBook Pro (OS 10.9.4).  We currently only have Airport Utility on her Mac, but I want to upgrade the utility so I can use it on mine.

    I have an older Airport Extreme (disc shaped) that we use with my wife's PowerBook (OS 10.5.8) and my MacBook Pro (OS 10.9.4).  We currently only have Airport Utility on her Mac, but I want to upgrade the utility so I can use it on mine. Which version of the utility will work on my MacBook, and still control the older Airport Extreme?

    if I update the Airport to the latest version, and "control" it with my MacBook Pro, will the older G4 still be able to use the signal from the new Airport?
    Yes. Your G4 shouldn't have any difficulty connecting to a Wi-Fi network provided by the latest 802.11ac AirPorts as they support the earlier radio modes that the G4 uses.

  • Just started up my Mac Mini out of the box, using a USB windows keyboard, it will not recognize letters so I am unable to enter serial number.  Anything I can do to get the mini mac right out of the box to recognize the windows keyboard?

    Just started up my Mac Mini out of the box, using a USB windows keyboard, it will not recognize letters so I am unable to enter serial number.  Anything I can do to get the mini mac right out of the box to recognize the windows keyboard?  Do I have to buy an Apple Keyboard to get it to work right out of the box?

    Is this a normal USB keyboard or is there anything specialized about it? Does this keyboard require you to install any special software to use it on a Windows box? Or is it usually a plug & play keyboard?
    Normally if a Mac does not recognize a keyboard it asks you to press certain keys to identify the keyboard. What is happening on screen with this keyboard? What serial number are you referring to?

  • Never had issues wit itunes until I've been unable to successfully up-date to version 10.4. It tells me to enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installatin package 'itunes.msi' in the box below. Can't seems to find it? should I re-install?

    Never had issues with itunes. However, currently unable to up-date to 10.4 version. It tells me to enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'tunes.msi' in the box below. Can't find this. Should I remove itunes and re-install all together? thanks

    I have already had to remove Bonjour with the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility due to another common error when running the install
    You're already well on track, then. Launch CleanUp again and remove any iTunes entries this time. Quit CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install.

  • Can the Mac Mini G4 be connected to a home stereo?

    Hi,
    I've been trying for days to find the right cable which will allow me to connect my G4 Mac Mini's headphone out port to either an optical or digital coax input on my home stereo.
    If anyone has had any success with this, please let us know!

    Doug, the G4 mini does not have optical/digital output capabilities. You can get a mini-plug to toslink adapter, as I have on my intel mini going to my stereo's optical input, but I do not believe it will work since the output port is not digital/optical.
    As you saw in the other thread on PPC mini and audio output
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=935713&tstart=30
    Your options are limited when going from analog output to digital/optical input.
    If you do not have any composite/RCA type inputs available (red and white cable) perhaps a switchbox would suffice. There are many on the market, some with a remote if you do not wish to get up and change the input source to the box.
    Perhaps going to a site like http://macaudiopro.digitalmedianet.com/ can give you some ideas/solutions to your dilemma.
    As for cables, while Amazon is always a source with a number of options available, cablesforless.com, cables4sure.com cablestogo.com etc. are all online wholesalers/retailers of audio and video cables. If you are looking for quality vs. price you will need to shop around a bit, as the different options/style cables can get confusing. Especially for someone like me who just wants to plug the **** thing in!

  • Can the mac mini i7, 8gigs ram,  edit avchd 1920/1080p without having to convert it?

    Can the mac mini i7, 8gigs ram,  external FW800 drive, edit avchd 1920/1080p without having to convert it?
    Can you scrub the TL at 5x speed and not have it stutter?

    By default it converts it to ProRes 422, though you can specify other codecs.
    Why convert it?
    Although FCP X can handle AVCHD natively, AVCHD being a "delivery" codec is not really suitable for editing.
    ProRes is designed specifically for ease of editing especially with complex effects and colour correction.
    If your editing is going to be fairly basic you can get away with leaving your media as AVCHD.
    Note also that an hour of ProRes is around 50GB !
