The K9N SLI Platinum is a poor start for nForce 570, as its a worse overclocker than its predecessor, nForce4 SLI. That said, early nForce4 SLI boards required numerous BIOS updates before being transformed into the tweakable monsters they are today...

AMDs AM2 processors have been with us for a number of weeks now, as have NVIDIAs nForce 500-series chipsets. Thus far weve explored a few systems featuring different socket AM2 motherboards, along with a look at Foxconns reference-cum-retail board...
The MSI K9N SLI Platinum took our usual barrage of tests without any trouble, so it shouldnt prove too much trouble for anyone familiar with PC installations to get this board up and running. There are still a few software issues, however, such as NT...

We loved MSI’s last nForce4 board so much that we gave it a Kick Ass award and even bumped the Asus A8N32-SLI board from our Best Of The Best list. Unfortunately, MSI was so late to the nForce4 SLI x16 party that the board debuted right on the cusp of...

MSIs latest 570 SLI based motherboard makes its way into our labs. How does it fare against the top-of-the-line nForce 4 boards?...
Despite not being based on NVIDIAs flagship chipset, the MSI K9N SLI Platinum has shown to be a very impressive board. The build quality and design is very good. Minor items, such as SATA connection placement, was well thought out by MSI. We liked th...

Today we are looking at MSIs K9N SLI Platinum - a medium range socket AM2 motherboard based on the nForce 570 chipset that aims to pack a lot of value as well as nearly all the functionality of the top end nForce 590 family of boards.The nForce 570...
Dont let the tone of the overclocking section deter you - unless you plan in engaging in extreme overclocking, the K9N is a good choice, and should provide a stable platform - frankly given its $60-$70 price advantage over an nForce 590 board it is c...

NVIDIAS NFORCE 590 SLI got all the attention when AMD launched its new AM2 platform, and for good reason. The chipset is packed to the gills with more PCI Express lanes, Serial ATA ports, integrated Gigabit Ethernet controllers, and fancy buzzwords th...
If the results of our performance tests make one thing clear, its that the nForce 570 SLI chipset has no problem keeping up with its more expensive sibling. The loss of true dual 16-lane SLI doesnt have an impact on the performance of a pair of GeFor...

Not so long ago Nvidia launched the nForce 500 chipsets for AMDs new DDR2 capable socket, AM2. By now you should all be aware of the minimal performance increases DDR2 has brought to the A64 architecture and its low latency on-die memory controller...
If we look at the two boards performance at stock, the MSI does look good. Its quite a bit cheaper than the Foxconn, offers a very similar feature set, and SLI performance just a fraction behind the Foxconn, yet in this day and age, what with overcloc...
