Hi - I'm looking to buy an MSI P6NGM-FIH for my dad. He has no need for a graphics card. I already bought an Intel E2160 CPU and I would like to overclock it to 2.4 to 2.8 ghz on stock air.
This board seems limited for voltage to the RAM. Anyone have any experience overclocking with this board? My dad just can't swing a more expensive board (w/o on-board video) and then a video card too.
Any suggestions on RAM would be nice too. Or is this just the wrong board for his needs and my demand to overclock all CPUs at least a little.
Thanks for your help!

MOVED: MSI X58A-GD65 Overclock Problem
This topic has been moved to Overclockers & Modding Corner.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=141883.0I bought the MSI X58A-GD65 because I am a complete moron who wanted a hardware Easy Switch.
It works really well,but I was pissed when I noticed that my 12GB's of RAM was no longer recorgnized. Only showed 8GB's..............
So I set the Easy Switch to deafualt ( 133 ) and decided to overclock the CPU and tweak the RAM.
I just read every forum where people had problems w/ various settings, and since I only want 3.2GHz w/ 12GB's of RAM @1.4v it was a walk in the park.
Clearing the CMOS after a day of torturing myelf and committing Human errors,I easily was able to simply undervolt the RAM from the 1.65v default,and raise the 133 default setting up by a factor of 5 and rebooting.
So this is my first OVerclocking experience and MSI seems like a worthy board..
I use this to perform hardware and virtual musical synths and instruments 6 nights a week.
Since I cam from a solid 32bit DAW that ran 100% for 3 yerars,I didn't upgrade, but actually did an entire new rebuild since I wasn't sure ofthe stability in x64.
But this DAW has worked for days on end now flawlessley.

MOVED: MSI 880GMA-E45 Overclocking
This topic has been moved to Overclockers & Modding Corner.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=146612.0hehehheheheh you really shouldve kicked in a few more bucks and the 1090t BE x6, the 1055t with stock cooler should get 3.55ghz easily however make sure you add more voltage to the cpu, also read up on your products I know this seems like a pain in the ass but if you take the time to read about your products you can ask direct questions about over clocking... this ----> https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=40413.0 is a damn good place to start first.
Also I do not recommend overclocking with stock cooler. Not to say they are bad just saying that you are adding more voltage and heat to your system. Seems in my 17 years of building/playing with computers the stock heatsinks are made to fit the already set manufactures specs. i.e. if the cpu is a 3.20ghz then all they make is a heatsink to deal with those temp settings.
I have got a stable 4.04ghz on my x6 1090t shown here alittle (all on air cooling)
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=146059.0
However I feel like every system has a "sweet spot" a zone where if tuned right you get the max performance for current build. Like mine ended up being 3.84ghz memory @ 1602mhz fsb to 240
I think 4ghz on the 1055t is very doable as long as you keep it cooled, also keep your room temps to about 68-70F as far as doing it to 3.40 on a stock cooler i wouldn't see why not?? but don't see much of a gain to increase it only few MHz?? -

Should I leave the default settings for the Ram or should I change them?
You need to change FSB/Memory Ratio to a setting that will keep your RAM @DDR2-800 when you raise the FSB clock speed to 33 MHz. (Should be set to 1:1.2)

Should be locked by default.

What does your system consist of ?
You are probably trying to OC the CPU multi. That is best not done to maintain the system power saving features.
Do a CMOS clear and then don't touch the CPU multi.
You need to go into the CPU features sub section and increase the core multis. Also disable EuP2013, Spread Spectrum and Overspeed protection.
Core i7-3930K 4GB x 4 Gskil DDR3 1333, yes i only set the multi and disabled overspeed protection only. I will try disable the other 2.
Thanks
*I don't see spread spectrum where is it located? -
Hello,
I own a MSI P6NGM-FIH mainboard since some weeks, without problems. Today I got a brand new MSI N9500GT-MD512Z graphics card. Unfortunatly, the graphics does not function with this board, it boots with the internal mainboard graphic card even if I select PCI-E graphic card in BIOS. The N9500GT is running fine in a MSI P35 Neo2-FR mainboard. I have installed all power connectors to the mainboard, the graphic card itself has no power connector. It also does not show up in Windows XP as a new device. The mainbaords BIOS is the latest version (1.4). How to fix this?Quote
the specs for 3.3V and 5V are 30 A each, so its enough.
Please post the amperage limit on the +12V power rail. If it has multiple rails, write down the limit for each individual rail and the globlal limit for all rails. Don't for get to post the brand & model name as well.
Quote
The PCI-E version doesn't matter
Please, what is so hard about answering a simple question as brand/model of the other video card you tried. I am just trying to get as much information as possible.
Quote
The PCI-E version doesn't matter, the P35 is also a PCI-E 1.0 board and it works there.
The P35 Chipset is an entirly different chipset, so it may very well be of importance what kinds of video cards you are using. -
MSI P6NGM-L system temperature and processor fan speed
Hi folks,
I've got a MSI P6NGM-L board that is reaching a system temperature of 46ºC-47ºC at everyday load (not playing games or doing heavy work... just browsing, email, text editor, etc). My case has got a frontal and rear 120mm (exaustor) fan, and my processor (Core 2 Duo E7200), an Akasa AK-965BL cooler. My graphics board is a XFX Geforce 9800GT with Zalman FC-ZV9 cooler. Overall temperature is just fine, except for the system temperature, that is 32ºC when the system is turned on and is cold, and reaches about 47ºC after some time and using. I disabled the onboard NVIDIA on BIOS, but that didn't make any difference. Is that temperature OK for my configuration, or somehow high?
I thought about taking off the northbridge heatsink and applying Arctic Silver 5 in it, but I don't know if that would make any difference, and it would give me a big job, because I would have to take the board off... so I don't know if it's worth.
Another question, is P6NGM-L board PWM compatible? I tried using speedfan to control the processor's temperature but it says it's at 100%, and I know the cooler is in silent operation. If so, what software should I use to control the processor fan?
Thanks for any helpI don't have a way to measure my room's temperature, but it's quite hot... something like 26ºC.
I thought that with all the cooling I've got inside my case the system temp would get lower, but it is still the same under normal load, even since my case had only one exaustor and stock coolers.
What about the processor's fan speed? Can I really change it by software? I plan to do some overclocking, so I would like to do tests with the processor cooler in full speed... I've googled all the way around, but couldn't find substancial information about P6NGM-L support for that.
Thanks -
Porblem with MSI P6NGM-FD during shutdown.
Overall the PC is stable, works well. The problem is when I shutdown the PC, the harddisk turns off, but CPU and Case still runs. Some commented that this is a problem with the ACPI. Will it be solved if I request another motherboard with the same model, or I just need a bios fix from your site?
I need immediate response. I bought this last April 22, 2008. Please send me bios update if this is the only solution. I'm tired of experimenting/installing Windows XP.Hello christian1616,
first of all, let's make sure we are talking about the same board. There are three different versions of the P6NGM out there:
- P6NGM-FIH -> BIOS v1.x ----> MCP73U [FIH - GB Lan+1394+HDMI+D-Sub]
- P6NGM-FD -> BIOS v2.x ----> MCP73PV [FD - GB Lan+DVI+D-Sub]
- P6NGM-L -> BIOS v3.x ----> MCP73V [L - 10/100 Lan+D-Sub]
Check your current BIOS Version. It should be displayed during POST on the status screen:
If you cannot get a good look at the BIOS Information because the status screen disappears too fast, disable quick booting in BIOS.
Some other thoughts:

Note that this is a plain user to user forum. Nobody here works for MSI.
We can check if there are any newer BIOS Versions for you board but in order to do that, we need to know which BIOS Version you are currently using.

Have you been using an Install-CD that includes SP2?

ACPI enabled.
Was (IO)APIC enabled as well when you installed XP SP2 and was MPS Table Version set to "1.4"?
Did you clear CMOS with main A/C power cable removed from PSU at any point and load "Optimized Defaults" in BIOS after that? -
Hi.
I built MSI K9AGM2-FIH - motherboard - micro ATX - AMD 690G with an AMD 4000x2CPU 2GB ram and 256mb 7600 pci-e card
The problem that I am having it is the Realteck High Definition.
When I try to install it, it finds the software and tries to run it but the it says
"error occurred during installation of the device. The device's co-installer is invalid"
Does anyone know what this means and how to fix it.?
I have the latest drivers from msi
ThanksI have now tried the reference driverQuote from: Hans on 28-August-07, 03:10:13
Did you try Realtek's reference driver? You can find it on their site: Realtek Guide by Backwoodz
but no joy, I did put the motherboard software in first.
Going to uninstall everything and try again. -
Alternative to MSI drivers with overclock settings too! (UPDATED)
Hello all,
Well, this has been posted a lot and I just wanted it here plain as day so we don't have to keep posting with this same answer.
Many times, due to poor configuration. or any number of reasons the MSI drivers overclocking can be a bit on the buggy side, Coolbits is one of the best basic alternatives, and what you should be using anyway for overclocking and setting your card's options, however, in some cases the MSI drivers may be the only thing that works for your sytem, so this may not be for you, the only way to tell is to try it and see.
Of course there are other utilities like Riva Tuner and nVtweak, that can take settings to another level of tweakdom, but for simplicity purposes Coolbits is the basics.
Driver Information
Download the latest Drivers from the nVidia Website. Again, you may have to search the internet for a previous version that works better for your configuration. you can go to http://driverheaven.net where they have a whole archive full of previous versions.
Also, you can go directly to nVidia's FTP site and get all the past versions here ftp://download1.nvidia.com/windows
While you are at Driverheaven, download and install the utility called Driver Cleaner, or go directly to the site dedicated to the utility http://www.drivercleaner.net

QI have MSI drivers installed but the Tabs are still present in Display Properties, how do I remove them?
A MSI's clock tabs are controlled by msicpl.dll and will not removed, you will manually have to eradicate the file yourself. It should be in the windows directory but if you cannot find it just do a search.
Keep in mind that XP's System Restore can also complicate things, while I won't recommend disabling it, it's something to think about.
*Supplimental Information*
With the intoduction of MSI's DOT Overclocking DOT Explained utility, some of the guesswork is taken out of the art of overclocking your card, however, don't assume that it is safe. Overclocking in ANY case can damage hardware if not done properly. One must take proper measures in cooling, and become educated in the dynamics of overclocking in order to get the best results. Just remember that heat shortens the life of any component, overclocking simply accelerates it. Liken it to smoking, one will most likely have a shorter lifespan, or have health problems. Some may live a normal lifespan, but the former is usually the case.

Caution:
Although D.O.T. is more safe and stable than manually overclocking, risks are still involved. We suggest you that you first make sure your graphics card can handle overclocking. If you find some abnormal phenomenons while playing 3D games after enabling D.O.T., such as broken images, we recommend you to either stop D.O.T or to lower the level of D.O.T.
If you prefer to overclock manually, you must disable D.O.T. first. We cannot gurantee that every graphics card can be overclocked to the Commander level.

Additionally, there is a tool available called, nVTweak that can unlock many features, including clock settings. Please read all documentation related to this product before using. http://nvtweak.laptopvideo2go.com/ Donations are accepted by the author.
Now finally to enable the simple bare bones overclocking abilities of the drivers using Coolbits...
Download the attached file and extract the .reg file to your desired location. Then, just doubleclick on the .reg file, this will enable the extra options including the Core and RAM settings for your card.
PM me if you think there are any changes that might need to be made, I will consider it.

Athlon 64 X2 4400+
400w PSU
Corsair Value PC5300 DDR2 2048 MB

The Bios has not been updated since purchase in may 07.
The problem occures whenever he starts a movie in Mediaplayer or VLC, or runs Photoshop or any other graphic application.
The entire machine just freezes, he cannot even do a CTRL+ALT+DELETE.
Can this be fixed sith BIOS update, or cpuld it be something else?
Sincerely
DThe link you provided doesn't specify any details about the power supply. Bad sign. May I be the third in line to advice you to gat another one?
BIOS: sudden problems with a system are never caused by the bios. Only if you swap hardware, it can be a bios problem. Also, changing settings can cause trouble. But when you used a system for years and it starts acting up, it can't be the bios, not in this case.
