MSI ships the Marshal with really a lot of accessories. Therefore it doesn't matter if you're looking for an additional debug display or even probes. The only thing would have expected which one can't find in the delivery is a triple SLI/Crossfire bridge. Considering that this board comes with no less than eight PCI-Express x16 slots this would have been almost a useful addition.
Features
| OC Genie | Using OC Genie - onboard button - you can auto-overclock your system by pressing a button. The board will automatically determine the optimum overclocking values and set them when booting. |
| Multi BIOS | This button can force the system to boot from the tertiary BIOS. Therefore the Big Bang Marshal offers the possibility to boot the system from a second backup BIOS if you should have damaged the first and second BIOS already. |
| 24+3+3+3+3 Phase Power Design | MSI equipped the Big Bang Marshal with the most sophisticated power design we have seen until today. The CPU therefore is supported by 24 phsese, the memory got three phases, the PCH got three phases too, the CPU I/O is also supported by three phases and even the SA can rely on three phases. This makes a total of 36 phases for this board. |
