NEXT GENERATION - OC GENIE II

Although Intel has imposed various OC restrictions on the Sandy Bridge platform, the OC Genie button is still equipped on the mainboards for this platform. In fact, it is the new-gen OC Genie II from MSI. Also equipped with the auto optimization and quick hardware OC features, the OC Genie II can automatically optimize the CPU Multiplier, CPU VCore, Memory Ratio and Memory Voltage of Core i7/i5 processors for beginners to enjoy the greater performance delivered by the Intel Turbo Boost in the simplest and fastest manner.

OC Genie Button

It is easy to use the OC Genie. You just need to press the “OC Genie” button when the system is shut off and the system will auto overclock to its optimum status when rebooting.

Note:

The OC Genie II does not support Core i3 processors as a result of the architectural restrictions of Sandy Bridge processors.

MILITARY CLASS MATERIALS

Continuing the premium-quality material design tradition, apart from delivering a longer lifespan, the MSI P67A-GD65 (B3) main- board makes OC operation more stable.

Hi-C CAP

Hi-C CAP, Highly- Conductive Polymerized Capacitor, uses high electric conduction polymer as in- ternal electro- lyte, featuring

the small size and high capacity, which are commonly used in many electron- ic products such as laptop computers, satellites and so on.

The main reason Hi-C CAP can be applied in high tech and precise machine is that the special Core brings low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance), low elec- tric leaks (Leakage Current) and larger adaptation range of ambient temper- ature scope. High ESR and Leakage current cause not only unstable system but also the life cycle reduction of spare part. The Hi-C CAP performance in ESR and Leakage current both surpass the present mainstream Solid CAP, not to say the obsolete EL CAP. Being as for the whole, Hi-C CAP stables the motherboard power output, enhances the power transference efficiency and has the adjustment function when Inrush Current (burst electric current) occurs. Naturally, the power loss is extremely low, brings the greatest superi- ority either in overclocking operation or life cycle.
