I highly doubt that. We are talking about Desktop board here, aren't we? I have not seen the ability to work without a video adapter in many Desktop boards. Server boards, yes. Desktop boards, no (here that kind of ability is rather the exception than the rule).

Th system is suppose to consume as little power as possible.
An onboard video chip does not consume a lot of power.

MSI 790XT-G45 headless possible?

Hi,
does anyone knows if this board can run without a graphics adapter?
I can buy this board to replace a MSI K9N Neo-F V3 because I need more SATA connections.
Is it possible to disable the graphics adapter/SLI in the BIOS?

MSI 790XT-G45 Various Crashes - Frustrated

Prior to purchasing my MSI 790XT-G45 mainboard everything ran great. However after swapping out my old motherboard for this one I experience many various crashes in different games. Here is a list of some games that crash:
Lost Planet (this one worked prior to swap)
Black Site Area 51
Microvolts
World of Tanks
Games that do work:
Diablo2
Minecraft
Monopoly Here and Now Edition
Halo CE
Any Browser Games
I tried variations of drivers etc. etc. and I have even recently re-installed the whole OS and let windows 7 (yes I'm running 64 bit) pick out the drivers. These games that crash run great but then crash out of complete randomness. Lost Planet get's a windows error message like Microvolts. Blacksite get's more spefic error messages but do not tell any clues as to why those crashes happened. World of Tanks usually just crashes to Desktop without warning with a rare occasion of a Windows error message.

I noticed that in the bios it said my cpu speed was 2.97 Ghz while it's actually 2.7 Ghz. I don't think that'd be causing the problem though.
Remove any OC, go to BIOS setup and load bios defaults.

Edit: Just ran the windows memory diag and I saw it at 75% complete overall (halfway through pass 2) and there were no errors.

MSI 790xt-g45 - BIOS not loading

Some time ago, a power surge occurred with no preventative measures. The computer was operational during the outage, and I did not unplug the computer. Upon powering on, there is no splash, beep, or anything of the sort. CPU fan is running, and all four APS LEDs are on.
Directly relevant specs are:
Hiper Type R Mk-II 680W power supply; attempted replacement with Silencer Mk II 750W power supply
MSI 790xt-g45 mobo
Is this borked beyond belief, or is there a chance that this may be recoverable?

Start by clearing the >>CMOS<< with the power cord disconnected.
Test with another stick of RAM.
Test with another CPU.
Test with another graphics card.
Disconnect the hard drive/s during testing.
Process of elimination really. By test each component in turn you'll hopefully find out what's wrong. May be worth taking the motherboard out of the case and running it bare bones on a piece of cardboard during testing.

MSI 790xt-g45 chipset driver

I bought a new 790xt-g45 mainboard,installed Xp Pro sp3,when i install the chipset driver a message appears saying-could not find driver for your hardware and os not supported.I'f downloaded the latest driver from msi and still receiving the same error mesage.When i use vista the chipset driver installs. Any one have a answer for me?

You used this driver? http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=driverfile&dno=2427&i=1

High latency with MSI 790XT-G45 under W7

I have decided myself to go for W7 one one of my rigs.I ve got some genuine disks of 32 and 64 and loaded W7 for testing purposes .
As my intention is to use the 790XT-G45 (considering it more W7 suited than my Platinum beeing newer more CPU support) tryed both W7 versions , but there is a problem.
Using the DPC high latency tool i get like 100 us under any W7 version with this 790XT-G45.The same board is ok latency wise under XP ,it hovers around 10-20 us when you re not doing anything serious with it .I have to remind that on this board i ve also had some issues with the big mouse cursor thing that seems to be related to motherboard latencyes.
In the past i ve used the K9A2 Platinum with W7 64 RC with the same video card and sound card that i use now on the 790XT-G45 ,but the latency was always 10-20 us.In fact trying again the Platinum gives me under W7 like 10-20 us.
I ve tryed disableing onboards ,removing the Creative and updating to latest BIOS version but no joy.The latency also adds some drag to the system i mean W7 windows don t look to snappy like it feels on Platinum.
So is this board compatible to W7 for real ?
What is so different between the 2 boards ,does the 790X have bigger latencyes than the 790 FX from the Platinum.One of the issues is that even if i would choose the Platinum CPU upgrade path closes.
I repeat i ve tested both boards with default W7 drivers and with vendors drivers and same thing.
Any user with 790XT-G45 encountering this under W7 ?
At first glance it s not a very big issue ,but i m very sure this 100 us get s me while playing to more and i really hate input lag and static on my sound.
Any ideas ?

Hi Guys,
I agree with Sm3K3R that a 70+ microsecond increase in average DPC latency will have an undesirable affect on some apps (games, real-time streaming, etc.). I also believe that what is good for XP will almost certainly not be good for Windows 7. Too much of the architecture has changed. Better drivers may help going forward. To me, the bigger question is why this mobo takes so much longer to run these routines than the K9A2.
I do not have any serious problems with the apps I run. Some of them may run better with a shorter average DPC latency. I have no way to tell with what I currently have to work with. Other bottlenecks may be in play. I was just responding to Sm3K3R's request for feedback. My power option is set to high performance and my base configuration has 41 processes running, including Diskeeper real-time defragmenter, Avira Antivirus, Logitech SetPoint, Process Lasso's process governor, PeerBlocker, and TaskDock. It also includes the Microsoft search functions and the sidebar with 2 gadgets running. Most of these processes run as services. I thought it was the search, sidebar, or one or more of the non-Microsoft products causing my base 100+ average latency indicated by the DPC high latency tool, so I ran LatencyMon to find out.
I ran it several times for 2 to 5 minutes at a time, starting when the system was idle. The Nvidia display and NT Kernel & System drivers always topped the list, with latencies from 50 to 114 microseconds. The display driver's routine also ran much more often than any thing else, followed, about 60% less often, by the NT Kernel & System driver. Thus these 2 drivers contribute the most to my average DPC latency. The other products listed above most often had 0 or less than 15 microsecond DPC latencies. Once I saw this, I did not bother to check my game configuration which does not have the search, sidebar, and the non-Microsoft products listed above in it.
During a Google search of this issue, I read that someone reduced their average Windows 7 DPC latency by 50 microseconds by turning off the HPET timer. I tried this and it did not work for me.
Looking forward to the results of Sm3K3R's further testing and feedback from others.

Have you installed all of the drivers? I linked win 7 64-bit make sure to select the right one.
Could you post ss's of your cpuid spd / memory tab & bios settings please?
Edit: Did you make sure the memory is installed in the right dimms for dual channel operation it is dimms 2 & 4 which sometimes throws people off.
Edit 2: Don't do this with an I5 2500k, use the multiplier only to increase speed. That cpu does not like that.
Windows & drivers are not the problem. As long as it boots I get into windows, but it will fail at the POST state. Memory is installed as decribed in the manual in slot 2 & 4.
I made some screenshots:
Between pic 1 and the last I changed dram timing to link, but on auto it will fail the same way. Everything is stock. It doesn't matter what I change as long as I don't change the cpu freq it will boot just fine. But god forbid I overclock 100mhz it will fail. But only after shutting down. Like said before I can turn it all the way up to 4500mhz just fine, just don't shutdown and try to boot it up again.
I also did a CMOS reset, didn't help either.

Do the front USB headers work?
Also try the board out of case and put it on a non-conductive surface. Retry with basic components and see if font audio works if you connect it.

ok you have missed some helpful information we could use to see if something is wrong like your parts list >>Posting Guide<< and be specific as it will help us work it out!
is the computer in the case or outside the case (always suggest that people try the parts outside the case on a non conductive surface (untreated wood or cardboard) to rule out a short under the board coming from the case<--- I do that every build so I can make sure if everything is ok before putting it in a case as its a pain if something is defective and you have to rip it all back out again)?

You are in the wrong part of the forum with that motherboard. Please make a new post, listing all your hardware, here:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?board=24.0
Since the problem is memory detection, you need to say model exactly.
Now I can only advice you to set memory speed down, to 1333 for starters. Also check if the memory wants a special voltage. For example, Corsair usually wants 1,65 volts.

you say recently, does this mean it was working fine before?
can you test this headset in another computer?
Yes it was working just fine before, this issue started happening a couple of weeks ago but I've had this setup for almost a year now.
I also don't readily have access to another computer to try it out on and testing it on another computer would be a bit of an issue because this only happens like once or twice a day after long hours of gaming.
Quote from: darkhawk on 31-May-15, 18:36:48
That's about the only relevant information I could find regarding this issue.
I would try the headset out on another computer. This would allow you to verify if the headset is the problem, or if the motherboard/USB ports are the problem.
I've checked out the link and my gamecoms were also configured for 5.1 surround sound, I reconfigured it to 7.1 surround sound so hopefully this is the solution. Also again I don't readily have access to another computer to test this out.
Hopefully this fixes it, thank you both for the replies and I will update you if the problem goes away or if it still occurs.

MOVED: MSI Z87-G45 gaming incorrect values

One size never fits all. Maybe his ambient is very high. Maybe the case cooling, TIM, or CPU cooler isn't as good as it could be. Maybe the CPU is overclocked with power saving disabled. Maybe the OP wants the fans to run 100% at idle and low use. An 'ideal' setting is the one the OP chooses for his system. He now knows how to do it, so the choices are his on how to fine tune the fan settings.
