00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:06.399
today I'm going to be unboxing a value motherboard from MSI although it is a

00:00:03.719 --> 00:00:10.280
value sort of tiered board part of their E series of boards it has a number of

00:00:08.840 --> 00:00:15.480
features that we've come to expect including a three-year warranty military

00:00:12.519 --> 00:00:19.240
Class 2 concept components so we have super farite chokes as well as solid

00:00:17.720 --> 00:00:23.840
capacitors that's going to give you more current delivery and a longer lifetime

00:00:21.720 --> 00:00:28.080
so they say 10 years lifetime here but if you flip the box over to the back you

00:00:25.560 --> 00:00:33.320
can see that they figure for gaming it can operate for up to 12 years non stop

00:00:30.439 --> 00:00:38.879
and for office use up to 40 years so yes in the year 2050 you could still be

00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:40.840
using your h67 rig should all of the

00:00:38.879 --> 00:00:48.120
other components that last that long and should you so desire pretty cool so we

00:00:44.239 --> 00:00:50.000
got OC gen2 THX true Studio Pro which

00:00:48.120 --> 00:00:52.960
gives us an ultimate audio experience okay so basically it looks like there's

00:00:51.760 --> 00:00:58.199
a few different settings that are supported by the THX audio got winky 3

00:00:56.160 --> 00:01:01.680
which allows you to surf the Internet chat with friends maintain hard drive

00:00:59.680 --> 00:01:06.680
data edit docs and photos without any OS although I still recommend installing an

00:01:03.079 --> 00:01:07.759
OS for the best possible functionality

00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:13.479
of this board you can see it is compatible with Windows 7 okay uh here

00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:16.479
we've got instant overclocking oh yeah that's right that's with their Control

00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:24.240
Center Software as well as click BIOS so it supports UEFI BIOS just like all of

00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:28.159
MSI's p67 and h67 Boards here we have a

00:01:24.240 --> 00:01:29.720
drivers and utilities DVD here we have a

00:01:28.159 --> 00:01:34.280
quick installation guide showing you how to use use some of the basic uh things

00:01:32.600 --> 00:01:40.119
that plug into other things with this particular board here we've got some of

00:01:36.360 --> 00:01:42.040
those convenient uh M connector

00:01:40.119 --> 00:01:47.079
things those are for plugging in your front panel connectors more easily here

00:01:44.240 --> 00:01:53.320
we've got a user guide couple SATA cables as well as a Molex to SATA power

00:01:50.680 --> 00:01:56.880
adapter and we have an IO Shield all right we got some

00:01:55.280 --> 00:02:03.119
environmentally friendly cardboard packaging here and then we have the board itself so this is an h67 board

00:02:00.600 --> 00:02:09.350
which means it is compatible with all Intel LGA

00:02:04.880 --> 00:02:10.599
1155 processors from their 4 i5 and 4 i7

00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:18.280
families here we go let's just take this guy

00:02:14.360 --> 00:02:21.480
out okay and it is not compatible with

00:02:18.280 --> 00:02:23.319
LGA 1156 processors bear that in mind

00:02:21.480 --> 00:02:28.319
and another thing is that no matter what kind of a CPU you're using you will have

00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:33.040
support for the onboard Graphics but if you're using an un locked CPU you will

00:02:31.239 --> 00:02:38.319
not have support for unlocked overclocking on an h67 chipset board so

00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:41.879
bear that in mind so here we go let's take this sticker off and let's start

00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:47.319
with the CPU socket in the center of the board as I am apt to do so there's your

00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:52.159
lg1155 socket supporting all the latest second generation Intel Core i series

00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:55.560
processors here we've got our four pin power connector and it's almost ideal

00:02:53.959 --> 00:03:01.000
location on the top left I wouldn't mind seeing it a little bit further up here

00:02:57.440 --> 00:03:04.280
we got our CPU fan okay we've we've got

00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:06.760
uh dual Channel DDR3 support we've got

00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:11.000
Clips on both sides some in some ways I actually prefer this system to the easy

00:03:09.159 --> 00:03:14.560
uh one side clip mechanism cuz it always feels a little weird putting the RAM in

00:03:12.480 --> 00:03:17.480
the one side and kind of squeezing it in there and then putting it down and

00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:22.480
clipping it shut I kind of prefer to open up two clips put in the RAM and

00:03:19.920 --> 00:03:25.879
then clip them both shut anyway next we've got our 24 ping connector in its

00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:33.000
ideal location along the right hand edge of the board and here we have four SATA

00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:35.360
2 3 GB per second ports and two SATA 3 6

00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:39.200
gbit per second ports so those are going to be what you want to use for like an

00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:43.280
SSD boot drive if you get a new SATA 3 SSD or any other performance drives you

00:03:41.959 --> 00:03:48.239
have attached to this board and these ones would be more like for your storage drives your Optical drives all that kind

00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:53.640
of good stuff here's our chipset heat sink which is using a pretty stylish

00:03:50.640 --> 00:03:55.640
overall look very angular in design

00:03:53.640 --> 00:04:00.920
looks very nice see if we can get it to actually focus on it there you go all

00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:06.640
right next here we we've got wow four front USB headers 1 2 3 4 here's our

00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:12.840
front panel connectors okay moving over we've got uh

00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:17.320
front panel audio connector right here in terms of expansion options this is

00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:24.120
kind of a this is kind of a new one for me on a more value oriented board oh

00:04:21.160 --> 00:04:29.720
please Focus come on on a more value oriented board we've got a PCI Express

00:04:26.199 --> 00:04:33.320
16x slot here and three PCI e1x slot

00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:35.479
slots so there is no Legacy PCI support

00:04:33.320 --> 00:04:41.360
on this motherboard you will be expected to use all updated PCI Express addin

00:04:39.080 --> 00:04:46.639
cards which I don't think is necessarily a bad thing all right next we've got a I

00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:52.440
don't think I've ever seen an optical audio port up there so we've got a combo

00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:55.880
PS2 Port we have digital audio supported

00:04:52.440 --> 00:05:00.320
bya Optical and then we've got 1 2 3 4 5

00:04:55.880 --> 00:05:03.800
6 USB 2.0 ports no USB 3.0 on this board

00:05:00.320 --> 00:05:07.000
guys we have HDMI gigabit Ethernet VGA

00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:08.680
DVI Okay so we've got quite a range of

00:05:07.000 --> 00:05:14.080
output options for display and then we've got onboard 7.1 audio thank you

00:05:11.880 --> 00:05:19.319
