Heading over to the Venetian in one of the many huge ballrooms, we stopped by MSI and to see what they had to show off. We saw a few high-end monitors, including the MPG 27QR QD LED X50 and the MPG 32URX QD LED, and a dream build inside a pricey fishtank-type chassis we may see on sale in the future. They also expanded the BTX market up the product stack and now include the Tomahawk and the ATX form factor. I’m glad to see this gaining momentum, with many case builders taking note.

In addition to all of those cool things are the stars of the show, the RTX 5000 series cards. We see some familiar names, like the Suprim and the Suprim Liquid X (3x120mm AIO cooled), Gaming, and Ventus, but now a new mid-range offering in the Vanguard. There are even some white cards, which has become increasingly popular these days.
Joe started writing around 2010 for Overclockers.com covering the latest news and reviews that include video cards, motherboards, storage and processors. In 2018, he went ‘pro’ writing for Anandtech.com covering news and motherboards. Eventually, he landed at Tom’s Hardware where he wrote news, covered graphic card reviews, and currently writes motherboard reviews. If you can’t find him benchmarking and gathering data, Joe can be found working on his website (Overclockers.com), supporting his two kids in athletics, hanging out with his wife catching up on Game of Thrones, watching sports (Go Browns/Guardians/Cavs/Buckeyes!), or playing PUBG on PC.
There comes a time in every overclockers life when you just want to go out and get the most expensive darn thing you can…just because… even though advice from the forums is to shy away from such a move. Today makes me count my blessings that a couple years ago Overclockers.com gave me the opportunity to write reviews for the Front Page. Fast forward those couple of years to today and I have in my possession the most expensive darn motherboard on the Z87 platform at this time, the MSI Z87 XPower. The features list is long and its power phases are more robust than anything I have seen. This should be a good one people. Let’s dive in and take a look!
MSI has been a player in the Z77 motherboard landscape since its inception. You have seen reviews here on the earlier releases such as the MSI Z77 GD65, but now we see an offering specifically made for overclocking with their latest release, the Z77 Mpower.
MSI just announced its newest flagship Intel motherboard, the MSI MEG Z690 GODLIKE. This motherboard will be available in limited quantities and comes with an extremely hefty price tag. At a reported $2100, you receive an MSI MEG Coreliquid S360 All-In-One cooler and a set of Kingston FURY BEAST 16 GB DDR5 memory along with the Halo-class motherboard. MSI is giving previous Godlike owners and those who have purchased its RTX 3080 or RTX 3090 GPUs ordering priority for this limited edition motherboard combo. If the sticker price hasn’t scared you, please continue reading MSI’s press release below.
This is the official presentation, so they could at least try to use proper English :ROFLMAO: (I'm not saying that my English is perfect, but this is MSI)
Tbh. it's not even cold here this winter, and it seems like it won't be. I'm not even turning the central heating on (I live in an apartment/11 floor building).
