MSI 6380 LE

arnaudnl · Jul 22, 2002, 04:56 AM

I have this mobo (msi 6380 le). But i dont think its a very good one and i suppose its the bottleneck for my system.

Amd 1,4 ghz
256 mb ddr samsung
40 gb hdd
radeon 8500 le
7100 3dmarks(2001)
windows xp pro

Does anyone else have any experience with this board?
If u do, is it a good mobo or should i upgrade?

Thank u very much

Try to search for your board on the msi site, because to me, there's like 20 6380's

I think that is a pretty poor mobo and would say it is the weak link in your system.
then ddr depending on what brand.... can't remember.
also what power supply and how big?

edit - didn't we find that manual before? don't remember which one it is though....

Its the ms-6380 le. There is just one 6380 le i know off.

The ddr ram is from Samsung.

Uhm and about the power supply......
Dont know much about it, got to check that out. First thing in the morning

But lets just say that my mobo is my bottleneck and all the rest is fine.....

What mobo do you all recommend for my athlon 1,4 ghz and ddr ram pc 2100 or higher.

Be aware that the KR7A won't be supporting anything above the 2100+. Abit just removed support for the 2200+ from their bios descriptions and the latest word is that they won't support the Tbred B's above 2100+ at all.

Upgradability is the main reason I bought this stupid board in the first place.
