MSI is much renowned for its mid-range solid-quality mainboards, but this time it seems MSI want to shift its traditional look as a mainstream supplier to a enthusiast feeder.

MSI introduced a lot of new stuff with this X58 Platinum board, and this is the refined DrMOS cooling system.

Dual Giga NICs, though from Realtek.  

All around the board are these elegant blue LEDs. Beautiful.

Backplate from Foxconn and the LGA-1366 Retention kit.

Quick buttons are aboard. Neat design. Pay attention to the black one named OLED2. You can view all the cool functions it can bring to us. Below is the demonstration in real use.  

And how about this? The coolest startup screen I ever had seen.

Not only beautiful as this very luxury design MSI had defined Eclipse is, it can truly perform, and perform stunningly.

Prices for these super processors were reported here. Stay tuned for more test on Core i7′s performance.
