Msu Guides Cases and Access. This is an old archive page of HWZ prior to revamp. That would be difficult to foresee since the Ahtlon XP has an impressive CPU line-up and the platform itself could easily last through the next year.
We were happy to see that MSI places a fan header just above the AGP slot, users of k7j2 party videocard cooling like the Thermaltake Crystal Orb can surely appreciate this. Ships with the following: The nForce2 Ultra was validated to operate at FSB and was also marketed to have better overclocking potential.
The board is a no frills version, and does not feature integrated graphics. Please visit HWZ for the latest reviews and news. Check out the specifications below and go over to the next few pages to see how it compares with the recently reviewed Soltek SLFRN2. The K7N2-L is smaller then most other AMD motherboards out there, so you shouldn’t have any problems installing this board into a mni tower case.
Only particular RAM modules synced well with the new chipset and helped us complete our benchmark suite. All the headers on the motherboard are clearly labelled so you’ll know what is what, and MSI uses a good amount of thermal material between mxi nForce2 SPP Northbridge and heatsink.

We certainly hope that this will be an issue of the past as time goes on and with manufacturers updating their BIOS consistently. Performance was good, but it just couldn’t compete with VIA’s chipsets at the time.
Consequently, the nForce chipset was delayed yet again, and eventually reached the markets in October, albeit in limited quantities. Will they be the last to support Socket-A? With the nForce2 Ultra this time around, MSI is actively pursuing the feature-hungry mootherboard and overclockers who would normally hunt for high-end boards with extra overclocking headroom.
MSI is just one of the many nForce2 motherboard vendors that has also moved forward with the new nForce2 Ultra chipset variants and has completely phased out its older models based on the initial nForce2 SPP.
That’s often something most other manufacturers neglect. The nForce motherbboard faster and more advanced, however after long delay the nForce eventually reached a market where the main competitor had now changed. Little things like this show how dedicated a company is to quality.
The problem seems to originate from the BIOS which was not properly optimized for the new chipset. About Us Employment Privacy Policy. Now a days, you can get an nForce2 board from any of the large motherboard manufacturers easily.
