MSI P67A-GD65 Motherboard Review
PC Mark Vantage and CineBench

PC Mark Vantage
The short answer seems to be yes. It's so frustrating that even though the GD65 doesn't overclock as well, it's not even very good at stock. Although the overclock helps it only just about reaches the levels of the i5-2500K at stock on the Intel reference board.
CineBench R11.5
It's not very surprising to see that CineBench suffers equally with the sluggish performance of the MSI GD65. Rendering is so dependant upon every ounce of processing power that even the slightest lapse has heavy consequences and so it proves.

I am pretty disappointed by the results of this board. I expected it to be a great board at that price level. Well maybe next time MSI.Quote

I finally thought MSI was going good in the mobo section yet this is pretty disappointing to me
EDIT i must be fair i also hear people using it and its perfectly fine,

I feel crushed I read in all these other sites about how awesome it was, but after seeing this I feel bitterly disappointed as well as being confused how it fared to badly here.
EDIT: Quite a few people seem to get 4.2GHz clock, so I guess MSI is being extremely conservative, in case someone got a half completed chip or something.Quote
