MSI P45 Mainboards - The full line-up available now!

Advanced MSI DrMOS equipped

MSI recently launched the MSI P45 mainboard series based on the new Intel P45 chipset. MSI offers a complete range from the mid-range segment to the high-end solutions. The MSI P45 series mainboards are equipped with server-class DrMOS which provides high power efficiency, more stable overclocking and lower temperatures. All the MSI motherboards have a zero noise solution with the MSI Circu-Pipe, Heatpipe or Heatsink.

Server-Class DrMOS– Energy Saving and Best Performance
MSI’s P45 series mainboards with unique server-class DrMOS component provides superior energy-saving functions and enables an ultimate low temperature operation. MSI DrMOS also comes with 3 incredible features; GreenPower for power saving energy, XpressCool for zero noise and effective heat dissipation and RapidBoost for high computing performance. In full loading system, MSI DrMOS drops the surface temperature by 16 degrees. Mr. Vincent Lai, MSI global marketing director, proudly states: “The MSI P45 mainboard series equipped with DrMOS, will provide consumers a rich computing experience and advance super energy-efficient technology which is a advantage for users and the environment”.

MSI Circu-Pipe Liquid & MSI Circu-Pipe2 Cooling Solution
The MSI P45 series mainboard is equipped with the unique MSI Circu-Pipe 2 or MSI Circu-Pipe Liquid cooling solution, that effectively reduce the high temperature from the chipset and provide the best total thermal solution for the whole system. MSI Circu-Pipe 2 is a new generation of thermal cooling heat-pipe technology. With the copper blades design, MSI Circu-Pipe 2 can increase the thermal efficiency. After the test the MSI Circu-Pipe was able to maintain the temperature of the north bridge chip in 36 degrees which resolves the issue of reaching high temperatures during high-computing load.

MSI GreenPower Center
MSI GreenPower Center is MSI’s software application, which enables users to be fully in control of their power configuration. MSI put really a lot of efforts in the design of the GUI; all the options are easy to find and to control. MSI GreenPower Center can even automatically manage your power configuration. Where systems without MSI GreenPower Center always increase the system fan speed (to lower down the temperature) when any heat is detected, MSI P45 systems with MSI GreenPower Center take action when any increase in power usage is measured by MSI GreenPower Genie. So before the heat is generated! This results in more efficient power usage and a reduction of acoustic noise. Besides this you can dynamically manage or fine-tune with MSI GreenPower Center systems by changing the voltage values of the CPU, memory AND chipset.
