MSI P55 Big Bang Motherboard

Chaos · Aug 12, 2009, 02:21 PM

I was reading about MSI's new P55 based motherboard. What makes it different is that it has included a chip from Lucid to provide multi-GPU support instead of XFire or SLI technology. Does DH have one of these boards for review? If so how does the Lucid chip fair?

Someone from Lucid leaked the info by posting pictures and information. It was all meant to be hush hush!

There's a MSI P55 thingy here next week for the tech-sites out here. I couldn't go because I saw it too late, but some of my colleagues go. Maybe they show the Big Bang then, but I doubt it.
