MSI takes the pain, fun out of overclocking with OC Genie
If you thought MSI’s obsession with motherboard implants was over after it unveiled Winki to a nearly nonexistent amount of fanfare, think again. The company has just taken the wraps off its latest mobo addition, the OC Genie. In essence, this is the one-touch overclock button that laptop owners have long enjoyed, but for desktops. Right now, the OC Genie is custom built for the company’s own P55 motherboard, though it insists that all sorts of mainboards will be supported in due time. If you’re curious about the details, you’ll have to remain that way for now; all we’re told is that activating the module automatically pushes your system to a safe brink within a second, giving even the newbies in attendance the ability to squeeze more from their current rig. In related news, MSI also added yet another model to its growing Classic laptop series, the 17.3-inch CX700, which gets powered by a Core 2 Duo processor, ATI’s Mobility Radeon HD4330 GPU and 4GB of RAM.
