I have the the MSI A88X-G45 GAMING FM2+ motherboard on my bench and ready for testing... Though unfortunately my 7850K was delayed, so I will get started on Monday. I have these pictures to show you of the package and motherboard though, this is indeed the Assasins Creed Liberation bundle. If you want some larger photos I will provide a link to a zip file with the large versions of these.

These are to start this off and I will be updating this with more info and testing :)

Let me know if you want something tested or whatnot and I will try to get that done :)

Swapped in some Crucial Ballistix Tactical LP 2x4GB 1600 for these runs. Good runs on a bloated OS (8.1), I think my RAM isn't up to the task of higher clocks on AMD - any good module suggestions for higher clocking RAM for AMD? I can run quite tight and this was just a rough run. I know I could squeeze out even more with better RAM and a tuned OS (plan to :) )

The dragon heatsink is fricking cool, I'm curious to how this motherboard holds up, never realized there were such motherboards with displayports onboard.
 
I totally missed that dragon heatsink when I first had the Z77-GD65 GAMING lol. Yeah its nice to see a lot of newer tech finally be put on these new motherboards... I am a little more than irritated with all these boards from various manufacturers still with PCI slots
