Mine has this utility built in to the BIOS as well...it's just that MSI has decided to only make some (in my board's case, all, including the one I updated to last year) of the BIOS images available for download only via their Live Update program, which is Windows only.

This is the newest BIOS for your motherborad (v4.1): ftp://217.110.237.70/fae_de/BIOS/7576_410.zip

Wow, seriously. This is literary garbage. This article is the nail in the coffin for me. De-bookmarking phoronix, commence!

I'm using one of these with a Phenom II 1090T x6 with 8Gigs of DDR3 running at 1600 as a home server. Just loaded up Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and everything is running fine. I liked it so much I built a PC for my brother with the same parts.

So much for this regular customer.. oh wait

Anyways, Michael do you also test how well the different motherboards handles spdif, either toslink or coax when its available?

So how's the dreaded KMS (kernel modesetting) with this board? Does fast user switching work (between multiple simultaneous X sessions)? Thanks!
