MSI NX7600 GS 512Z question

Hello!Igot a question about my MSI NX7600overclocking.When I enable DOT I can overclock the 3D only to 440Mhz and the memory clock up to 880Mhz.But I have tryed the 480Mhz 3D and 960 Mhz memory clock as well and the system is still stable.But when I click on the apply button always jumps back on the maximal DOT mode 440/880.If I turn the DOT off and I change the clock setting the pc saves my settings until I turn it off.When I turn It on again there are stock frequency settings.How can I ovc my graphics card and save my settings?

Set it up so it starts up in system tray.
And how should I do this?

  • MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR Questions & RAID Promise FastTrak Controller Issue

    I have recently rebuilt my system replacing the MSI KT3 with an MSI K7N2 Delta. I have been impressed with the features and stability of the system, however, I have some questions that I hope some of you that have more experience of this board can answer:
    1. I am using the AMD Athlon XP 2200 (and all the other components including the Lian Li case) which I was using on the KT3 board. The CPU temperature is around 45 degrees C but on the KT3 it was only 35 degrees C when idle. Any ideas ? The heatsink is definetly mounted properly. The temperature did drop by 10 degrees C when I flashed the
    BIOS to fix the known CPU temperature issue but I think its still high.
    2. I do not have any serial ATA devices or anything connected to IDE3 channel and during the BIOS boot up I get the message:
     "No drives attached to FastTrak Controller. Bios Not installed."
    Is this correct ? Should I be getting this message ?
    I would like to disable the onboard Promise Controller since it is taking up resources and it slows down the boot speed (although only slightly). The MSI website says that the onboard RAID controller can't be disabled. I think this is poor design. Does anyone know if this is going to be addressed in future BIOS releases ?
    3. Which of the USB ports are USB 2.0 and USB 1.1. I thought it was rather strange that only 2 of the 4 ports on the header actually active.
    Many thanks for your help.
    Rupesh

    First off your temp is ok on that board. If you have not loaded the onboard raid driver do so and it is something you have to suffer with on the MSI board. All of your USB ports should run at USB 2.0 and you also should be able enable all of them in the bios.

  • MSI GE60 2PL Cooling Question

    Hi there,
    I just bought a MSI GE60 Apache-629 Laptop. I Never owned a MSI Laptop but I am Very Satisfied so Far. Even though it doesn't have the NVidia GTX 860m , like the Apache Pro, I can Still Run Battlefield 4 on Medium Spec in 1920x1080.
    My Question is should I Press the Fan Button to Speed Up the Fan when Playing Battlefield 4 ?
    It seemed like my Laptop was getting VERY HOT !
    Is this Normal ?

    Hello ericpatterson89,
    If you don't mind the fan noise and the power consumption while you're playing BF4, just speed it up. The temperatures of the CPU & GPU are always hot when playing these types of 3D FPS games, no matter which model. Some models are just bigger and thicker so that you don't feel so much heat on the surface. But actually they are all very hot in those cores.
    So the best and accurate way is to run "Dragon Gaming Center" to monitor the temperatures of the CPU & GPU. Its icon can be found on the system tray (right-bottom of the screen). Just double-click it to open its window and it will show you the temperatures of both CPU & GPU.
    There's an EC firmware inside the laptop which will automatically increase/decrease the RPM of the fan or boost up/throttle down the GPU power consumption according to the heat generated. So if you always turn the fan in full speed during the game play, according to the principle of the NVIDIA GPU, it will run as fast as possible if needed until it's throttled by EC firmware. In my past experience, setting the fan in full-speed during the game play will get more time running fast and smooth than setting it automatic. That's why I am saying that it depends on the user's tolerance to the fan noise...

  • MSI Big Bang Marshal - Questions

    Hello all
    I am new here and I have been doing research on components for a new computer I am making a shopping list for. I have a few questions I have not been able to find any information online. Here goes
    1. Anything specific I should know about the motherboard other then whats in the specs? Problems, quirks, etc?
    2. Does the motherboard only support 2x Dual Video cards like 2x Nvidia GTX 590 or can I use 4x Nvidia GTX 480s?
    3. P67 motherboards with the nf200 on them support 24 pci-e lanes. if I use:
    PCI_E1 - 8x
    PCI_E3 - 8x
    PCI_E5 - 8x
    PCI_E7 - 8x
    Makes up 24
    But there are still:
    PCI_E2 - 1x
    PCI_E4 - 1x
    PCI_E6 - 1x
    PCI_E8 - 1x
    Left. Does that mean there are no lanes left and I coudnt even fill anything in the other 4 slots like PCI-E Sound, etc?
    4. If you do Dual, Tri, Quad-SLI and have a PhysX card, how many PCI-E lanes will your PhysX card consume? Is it set by the NVIDIA control panel, the number of lanes of the chipset divided by the mount of video cards or by the card itself?
    5. When people say Dual, Tri, Quad-SLI +PhysX, does it mean (Dual -1(PhysX), Tri -1(PhysX), Quad -1(PhysX) or does it mean (Dual +1, Tri +1, Quad +1)?
    6. I know Scalability of increasing arrays of video cards is pretty poor, but could I do Quad SLI +PhysX using the MSI Big Bang Marshal?
    7. Which is most advantageous, Tri SLI +PhysX, Quad SLI, Quad SLI +PhysX?
    8. Sorry, probably not related, but I wanted to do Raid with SSD's for very fast reads and writes yet have redundancy. I wanted to get some OCZ Vertex 3s and I was reading about how Raid 5 was interesting but apparently Raid 5 increases the degredation of SSD? Has anyone experienced this or have any suggestions on best raid configurations?
    Thank you for all of your help

    By my count, that makes 32 lanes. If not done so, a lot of pre preparation information can be gathered at the MSI Global Website. All the basic & more detailed information can be found there. The downloadable pdf manual is usually much more comprehensive than the manual that comes with the board as well, & can probably answer a lot of your questions. I don't believe the board can do Quad GTX 480 SLI.

  • MSI 915p Thoughts & ram questions

    Hi All,
             I'm thinking of buying one of  MSI 915P neo2 Platinum motherboards, but i have a couple of questions. Firstly i'm having dificulty finding reviews for this mobo, so i've come here to see what you think of it (unbiased of course). Secondly i'm confused over what type of RAM it supports, some parts sellers list PC4200 others PC4300, i'm even seeing the newer PC5300 being mentioned. And finally what the difference between PC4200 & PC4300.
    Thanks inadvance

  • MSI Neo-FIS2R build questions! & SATA RAID questions!

    This is going to sound like a stupid question. And I'm not even sure that I know what I am asking.
    I've built two computers so far. One with an MSI K7N2G-L and another with an MSI K7N2G-ILSR. Both nForce2 motherboards with AMD processors.
    Here's what I'm getting at... I'm planning on building a new machine with either the Abit IC7-G or the MSI Neo-FIS2R (both 875P boards obviously).
    Now, when I built the two nForce2 boards it was really easy. I put all of the components together, turned on the machine, the bios auto enabled settings, I put the windows xp pro cd in the cd drive and formatted the hard drive for NTFS, I then installed the OS and booted the system! Then I intstalled the drivers fromt the MSI CD. Ran Live BIOS and flashed to the most current motherboard BIOS. SIMPLE! Everything worked fine.
    Here's my question. For the 875P system will everything pretty much happen the same way? Or do I need to do additional things? One of my main concerns (especially if I go with the Abit IC7-G over the MSI) is flashing the bios. Do I need a floppy drive or something? I've never flashed a BIOS outside of the Live BIOS utility. I don't want to put a floppy drive in my system! What are my options here?
    Not that I want to do it, but if I needed to (say with the Abit board) HOW DO I FLASH THE BIOS WITHOUT USING THE LIVE BIOS UTILTY?
    Bottom line is, I'm building this system for someone else and I want it all to be a painless experience (especially if they are looking over my shoulder).
    One final question. This may sound even more stupid than the first question. I'm purchasing SATA drives ONLY. I'm not purchasing any IDE drives. So, here's my question...Can I boot from a SATA drive? What if it's in RAID 0? From the posts in the forums it appears that the SATA and RAID on these 875P motherboards either doesn't work or isn't very reliable (may potentially lose data). IS THIS AT ALL TRUE?! I'm stupid when it comes to RAID and SATA. Any help in this department would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    3. If I install two SATA drives and set up a RAID
    (either 0 or 1) which drive does the OS go on?
    I have never built a raid array (as yet) and have never owned a SATA disk (as yet), but from what I have read...
    RAID is a method of connecting several disks together so they perform as a single disk.  That means, in response to your points above:
    1) If you install only one drive (SATA or not), it will not be set up as RAID.
    2) If you install two SATA drives, you have the option of using them as two individual drives OR setting them up in a RAID 0 or 1 configuration.
    3) Ok, RAID 0 is known as "striping" - this method makes two disks look like one big disk, that works twice as fast as the individual drives.  Every time the PC writes data to the drive, it sends the first bit of data to drive 1, the second to drive 2, then drive 1 again etc etc.  This speeds up the disk read/write time, as the two disks can both work simultaneously.  To the OS though, the two drives appear as one.  The OS will be spread across both disks - it needs both of them connected to run, take either disk out and you'll be left with half an OS (that obviously won't work)
    With RAID 1 (known as "mirroring"), you still use two disks.  You will only have a useable capacity of the smallest disk however (using two 40gb drives only gives you a total of 40gb of space. with RAID 0, two 40gb disks will make one big one - nearly 80gb large {I think the RAID system itself uses a bit of space}).  The advantage with mirroring, is the second disk holds an exact copy of the first.  If one disk goes bang, you have a duplicate copy on the second - so, to answer your point above, the OS will reside on both disks.
    To summarize, RAID 0 is good for increasing speed; RAID 1 is good for increasing protection of your data as you have two copies incase a drive gives up.  To get the best of both worlds you need RAID 0+1 (this method needs 4 disks though, 2 striped - then 2 mirroring the striped).
    There is a lot to RAID - just search the net for some manuals if you're interested, hope this gives you an idea though (providing I've got it right!)

  • MSI 648 MAx Motherboard question regarding AGP Speed

    I have recently bought a Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb and installed latest radeon drivers and msi drivers etc.
    I have one question. How do I change it from AGP 4X to 8X. When I click on properties and setting, advance, it only shows 4X as max setting. But my motherboard supports 8 Speed and the card is 8 speed so what do I do?
    Tried searching forums already but to no avail. Tried looking in BIOS for options but no luck. Any ideas?
    Cheers guys  

    Yup.
    I fixed my problem. But now that has brought on a new one.
    When I installed the latest driver, it would only let me use AGP 4 speed at most. To proove the newest driver was installed, I did a dxdiag and looked for the agp version and found it. When it is the latest driver installed, it only allows 4 speed. So I had to revert back to a middle driver(ie not the very first one and not the most recent). This then brought up the option of 8speed AGP in my ATI SmartGart panel. I was happy with this. But it is not the latest driver and this is now causing Battlefield Vietnam to crash. Continuously. And experience slowdown etc. Which, lets face it, should not be happening.
    SO to sum it up, with the latest driver installed, AGP 4 speed is as high as it can go.
    But with a middle driver, i can achieve agp 8 speed but my game crashes with this driver.
    And to show just how bad SIS are for updating driver, I have to go into device manager, manually find the .inf file for the latest driver and use this to install the latest driver for it to show up as the latest driver in dxdiag.
    So who is at fault here? SIS or MSI? What a piece of crap.  
    EDIT: Would there be any point in flashing the cmos?

  • MSI K7N2 Delta RAID question

    Hi guys,
    Again with the stupid questions.   At least my questions are easy.  
    I've been dieing to hook up a couple o' SATA drives and run RAID, striping, on my MSI K7N2 Delta.  I ordered a couple 200Giger Seagate Barracuda's tonight.  Couldn't  pass up the deal even though I shouldn't have spent the $.
    OK, here's my stupid question:  Can you partition a drive(s) in RAID 0?   I would like to partition like 10GB for the OS and the rest for like apps and download storage.  If I ever have to reformat the OS I only have to redo the 10GB partition.  Thanks for bearing through my stupid questions, I'm just excited to do this and can't wait to find out.  

    Ok guys, thanks again.
    I kinda figured it would be business as usual, but I wasn't sure.
    I am very curious about speed performance.  I'm not sure it would be worth it from what I've read about RAID 0.  Apparently it will be good for like video editing operations which I will be doing a little bit of for my web site.  I will find out for myself though, and I do need more room.  So, regardless the space is needed and I wouldn't mind a bit more performance.  
    I have the RAID drivers on floppy disk that came with the mobo.  I think I'm all set except for drives that will arrive this week some time.

  • MSI GTX 560Ti Hawk Question

    Just a quick question to start with, how many RPMs should my fans be doing at 100%?
    I have a feeling something is going horribly wrong with my new card.

    Use MSI Afterburner to adjust the fan speed - you can draw a graph and dictate how much the fan should be working against a given temp.
    Is the MSI GTX 560 Ti Hawk the most problematic card.....i mean EVERYONE complains about fan noise and temps. If i had read the forums first before buying the card....i wouldn't have bought it.

  • NOOB -MSI K8N NEO2 Platinum questions

    Hi
    I coming from an Intel background but am now considering changing to AMD; i'd like to keep my agp x800xt pe card and get a MSI K8N NEO2 Platinum board but have got a few questions /concerns.
    I have looked on several forums including MSI's own forum and noticed people having problems with corsair value select memory modules.
    My questions which i'd be grateful for answers to are:
    1. Am gamer and planning to also purchase a 4000+ to put in it - will the board recognise it straight away or will I need to update BIOS..
    2. Want to transfer my current 4x512mb 3200 Corsair Value Select sticks to my new board - will there be any compatibility problems? (cannot afford to buy new memory)
    3. Will I be able to run the memory 200 + ? as heard the boards base clock for a 4000+ is 166
    4. If I can run these at 200 can i do this straight away or will i need to overclock them slowly to get to 200 (will the board see them as 3200 and start at 200?)
    5. Anything else I should know/look out for?
    Many thanks to all. My first post here so hello to everyone.

    Hello !!
    Let´s try to answer your questions...
    1. It depends on which Bios Version is installed out of the Box, i suggest version 1.8, if you are not using a Venice / Dual-Core or later CPU Core. The advantages of biosses later than version 1.8 are the new Steppings Support and some new Memory Timing Options available in Bios Setup.
    2. I do not know exactly, i think most corsair sticks are running well on this Board if you are not going to overclock. But it depends on which Chips are used your Corsair Modules. What could be a problem is that you are going to use 4 Ram Sticks, because with Winchester Cores you would not be able to run 4 Sticks in PC3200Dual Channel Mode (DDR333), even if your Ram would be 100% compatible with your MOBO. Venice and later Cores are able to handle 4 sticks at 400Mhz DDR clock. Except you own 4 single sided Ram Modules.
    3. Should be possible if your memory likes it.....
    4. No, the Bios will recognize your SPD Timings. So you will have to overclock them from a 166Mhz Memory Divider Base.
    5. Take a look here:

  • MSI P35 Neo2 FR questions

    I'm looking to buy this board. I noticed it uses a EPS 8 pin connector not a 4 pin P4. When looking at a picture of the board 4 of the pins look to be covered over. The bios manual makes no mention of this cover. Does the cover mean I can use a 4 pin P4 connector instead of a 8 EPS but only in the top 4 uncovered position? They do point out the fact that you can use a 20 pin ATX connector instead of a 24 pin, not that is matters as my supply has a 24 pin ATX connector but no EPS 8 pin.
    The board also has an additional 4 pin connector. Info is weak on this but Anandtech did a review on this board and claims Quote: "The board comes with two physical PCI Express x16 connectors (1 x16, 1 x4 electrical), two PCI Express x1 connectors, and two PCI 2.3 connectors. Dual-slot graphics cards will block the first PCI Express and PCI slots. A 4-pin 12V Molex connector is to the left of the first PCI Express x16 slot for CrossFire operation; MSI also recommends using the additional power connection if all of the expansion slots are populated."
    I'm going to run only 1 PCIE card and 1 PCI card so do I need it?
    Will this board post with a GEN2 PCIE card without a bios update for the mother board or video card?
    Example: EVGA 8800GT SSC
    There are reports of post problems even when using a P35 shipset. The only chipsets that are totally unaffected are X38's and X48's.
    Thanks for your time

    Quote from: Frankenputer on 14-December-07, 13:39:26
    Okay, the PSU might work, but I think it would be pushing the PSU (30A shared between the two rails).  The 8800GT likes 28A as a minimum requirement(meaning minimum hardware). You could try it and see how it performs.
    The Corsair 450VX, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139003 , or the 550VX,  even better, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139004 , would be good choices.
    So are you going to answer my second question?
    The board also has an additional 4 pin connector.

    I'm going to run only 1 PCIE card and 1 PCI card so do I need it?
    Oh and I do like single rail PSU's but we will see what happens. I'm more worried about the video card compatibility.
    EVGA claimed minimum specs for the 8800GT SSC
    Minimum of a 400 Watt power supply.
    (Minimum recommended power supply with +12 Volt current rating of 22 Amp Amps.)
    Minimum 450 Watt for SLI mode system.
    (Minimum recommended power supply with +12 Volt current rating of 24 Amp Amps.)
    EVGA's specs are kind of vague, are they talking about a single rail supply or a multi rail supply as it would make a night and day difference.

  • MSI GT60 dedicated GPU question

    Hello everyone! This is my first post
    Basically i have a MSI GT60 2OC-003US, i have two questions regarding it.
    First, I just bought a 27" monitor to plug into my notebook via HDMI. Now I have heard that the dedicated GPU (Mine is the GeForce GTX 770M) is not meant to be used at all times, however, when i plug in my HDMI to the monitor, the power light goes from white to orange indicating that the dedicated card is being used. Is there any way to make it so that it uses my integrated card instead of my dedicated? I am going to have my monitor connected at all times so i don't want it to be running off of my GTX.
    And also, if i am gaming or have a monitor plugged in, and i stop gaming or unplug the monitor, the orange light should go back to being white since the dedicated gpu related programs are closed, yet it still stays orange? Wondering how i can fix that.
    Thank you lots!

    GT60 2OC outputs video signal via dedicated GPU circuit. It's the hardware design. You can't change this architecture.
    There're lots of processes using dedicated GPU out of your notices. You can go to NVIDIA Control Panel, find Desktop menu and check "Display GPU Activity Icon in Notification Area" to enable the activity window to quickly monitor which processes are using the dedicated GPU.

  • MSI-GD65 Status code question

    Hey everyone, I just got my MSI-GD65 board hooked up for an external power up to make sure all my components are working before I fire it all into my case, and I noticed a status code on the POST LED's that says "bb" I'm assuming they are "B" and not "6".  I just don't see anything listed for a "bb" POST code.  Can anyone tell me what this is? 
    Just some quick potentially useful info:  I do not have a hard drive connected, and I am only using the integrated graphics on the Intel i7-4770k processor.  I am only booting into the BIOS.  I have 2 sticks of DDR-1600 RAM that is detected fine and doesn't seem to show any issues.
    Just as a side question, my CPU idle temp is ~50C.  This seems high, but I am using the stock HS right now.  Anyone know if this is high enough that I should be concerned about something?
    Thanks a lot everyone!

    I just have a hard time believing that the code is sixes.  Every other 7 segment display I've seen displays the sixes with the top segment also lit up.  I was just trying to clarify if there was some sort of known use of the displays showing this sort of arrangement.  Also if it was displaying temp. I think it would increase or decrease at least 1 degree over the hour that it sat idle.  It never moved from the "bb" code that was posted.
    The BIOS temp does vary from 50-51C and I can see this change in real time, so I am much more inclined to believe this is the actual temperature, or at least a more realistic representation of it, even if it is not 100% accurate.
    Thank you both for the replies though.  I think I will safely assume that it is the standard "bb" code that is displayed while in the UEFI BIOS, and see what happens when I get everything hooked up into the case later today.
    Unless there is anything else anyone else would like to add?  All help and input is appreciated!

  • My new MSI Z77A-G45 Gaming question

    Hello MSI forums ,
    I'm building a gaming system for my son. The MB i picked was the MSI Z77A-G45 Gaming and it just arrived from newegg. Just a quick question.
    The MB arrived w/ out shrink wrap and the MB itself seems to be slightly warped or curved. Is this normal? I purchased a MSI Z77A-GD65 a few months ago for myself and I can't remember if it had shrink-wrap on it or not but I'm sure I didn't see any warping on the GD65.
    Anyway, over the last two months I've build two complete systems all from newegg and i haven't had one issue, so good luck for me so far.
    thanks!

    Not even a security flap or tab seal on any of mine, so no shrink wrap I can recall. Slight curve should pose no problem once it is tightened down in the case.
