MSI announces support for the, soon to be revealed, next generation Intel CPUs for all MSI motherboards sporting Intel 8 series chipsets. Saving MSI motherboard owners a lot of time and work, users can install the new Intel CPU with updating latest BIOS. Small note, it seems that MSI talks about the Haswell refresh, personally I would not have called that the next generation processors.

Inheriting years of building the best motherboards and closely working with world’s best gamers, MSI has introduced the popular "GAMING" series. Collecting over 200 awards from worldwide media, equipped with the best audio solution called Audio Boost, Killer networking and other key gaming features, MSI GAMING series has set a new standard for gamers seeking the best performing motherboards.

Hi-C CAPs, Solid CAPs, Dark CAPs, together with SFC and Dark Chokes, ensure your PC runs stable under extreme conditions. These key components have all passed military testing ensuring stable operation in the harshest environments. The core of Military Class 4 is based on the essential elements which increase your stability in the worst conditions, featuring humidity protection, high temperature protection, EMI protection and ESD protection.
