MSI X58 Platinum Review

Testing:

Crysis Warhead is a standalone expansion pack situated in time with the story line of the original Crysis. As Sergeant "Psycho" Sykes, you have a secret mission to accomplish on the far side of the Island. Along the way there are EMP blasts and aliens to contend with, as you hunt down the KPA chief. This game uses an enhanced version of the CryEngine 2.

• Enthusiast
• Ambush
• DX10

Performance is the same all across the X58 motherboards, none of them stand out in either a positive or negative manner. Overclocking doesn't even show any improvements, proving once again Crysis relies a lot more on the video card than any other component.
