  • Terminamos con la segunda exponente LGA 1150 que para por nuestros laboratorios y vemos como día a día la vara sigue subiendo. Quizás es algo generacional o por el mercado en común que estas piezas comparten, pero hemos visto como review a review, año a ...

  • Une carte mère qui donne le Max!!!La MPower Max est sans conteste taillée pour l'overclocking, plutôt un overclocking poussé tant les options sont présentes pour assurer le coup.Il ne manque rien à cette carte mère! en restant d'un point de vue ov...

  • Présentation/Finition, Bundle, Fonctionnalité, OC CPU, Prix acceptable
  • UEFI peu Réactif, OC Ram difficile
  • Et voilà, c'est fini pour ce coup-ci, l'eau qui perlait sur le dissipateur de la ram à fini par atteindre les slots, rendant le démarrage du système impossible. Mais ne vous en faites pas, après un petit passage au four à 80°C (pour sécher le matériel), t...

  • Abstract:  Ogni volta che Intel presenta una nuova architettura crea una serie di microprocessori per computer desktop, portatili e server. L'abilità dell'azienda nel toccare così tanti segmenti di mercato con un solo prodotto rende la sua strategia piuttosto diffic...

  • sehr gute Leistungsfähigkeit mit einer extremen CPU-Spannungsversorgung und umfangreichen Overclocking-Funktionen, angemessene Ausstattung, u.a. zehn USB-3.0- und acht SATA-6G-Anschlüsse, PCI-Express-3.0-Unterstützung an drei PEG-Slots, sehr gute Gesamtpe
  • keine, Das MSI Z87 MPower MAX ist der ideale Kandidat für Enthusiasten, die etwas Außergewöhnliches verbauen möchten und zusätzlich auf eine umfangreiche Ausstattung Wert legen. Mit den umfangreichen (Overclocking-)Funktionen geht dem geneigten Enthusiast
  • MSIs Start in die Lynx Point-Plattform fiel, zumindest was das Z87 MPower MAX angeht, positiv aus. Die Platine ist dabei kein gewöhnliches Mainboard, sondern spielt in einer höherrangigen Liga, was sich an der Ausstattung widerspiegelt. Drei PCIe-x16-Sl...

  • Prestaties, Featureset, UEFI
  • Niet goed kunnen booten met USBstick, OCGenie is niet zo heel interessant met dit bordje
  • De MPower MAX is een mooi bordje. De prestaties vielen me niet tegen en hij werkte lekker. De kleurstelling vind ik wel tof, geel/zwart is weer even wat anders dan rood/zwart wat je veel ziet. De featureset is prima, een mSATAslot is praktisch, er zitten...

  • Stabiel, BIOS flash wist niet de oc profielen, BIOS tweaks die andere fabrikanten toepasten voor benchmarks nu ook inbegrepen, Goede geluid en LAN chip
  • Geheugen overklokken blijft een uitdaging (BIOS issue), baseclock overclocking en straps werken niet naar behoren
  • Over het geheel genomen ben ik redelijk tevreden over de prestaties van dit bord. Qua efficiëntie doet dit bord goed mee met de rest van de merken. Positief vond ik dat ik merkte dat na een bios flash een reeds opgeslagen oc profiel nog steeds aanwezig w...
