MSI, the leading motherboard brand, bags the Best Choice Award in IC & Components category for its Z97 XPOWER AC, a high-end motherboard designed to break overclocking records.

Best Choice Award, one of the honors at COMPUTEX, focuses on Functionality, Innovation and Market Potential as the main judging guidelines and sifts through numerous entries to pinpoint the most outstanding ICT products for global buyers. This year's Best Choice Award forms a venue of fierce rivalry from 477 entries across 15 categories. As voted for by a professional jury panel of government representatives, academicians, research analysts, editor-in-chiefs and experts, MSI Z97 XPOWER AC is proudly one of the 40 winners to receive the honor. Ted Hung, MSI Vice President of Motherboard Sales Division, gladly responded, "For years MSI has been pushing the boundaries of technology, going all out to deliver tech products that meet the needs of global users. This time around, MSI's effort in developing overclocking technologies has received recognition from COMPUTEX. It's absolutely a great honor and an affirmation toward MSI's technical innovation and design capabilities."

MSI Z97 XPOWER AC, an all-new model from MSI Overclocking series motherboards, has been named an honoree of COMPUTEX 2014 Best Choice Award. With a look and feel that stand out in the market, the striking design of the Z97 XPOWER AC is highlighted by water cooling heat sinks and an amazing set of features, catering to power users that just want to get the most speed out of their 24/7 systems or professional extreme overclockers as both can find features that help them get the best performance out of their systems.

Breaking World Records

The new Z97 XPOWER AC is ready to support users in all their overclocking attempts with impressive VRM water cooling, exclusive use of Military Class 4 components and a socket design that is optimized to house any cooling solution. The Z97 XPOWER AC comes with the exclusive Delid Die Guard for overclockers that want to remove the heat spreader of the CPU to optimize its performance, an OC Pen Drive with native drivers and OC profiles and an OC fan stand to assist users with airflow generation during LN2 sessions.

OC Certified

OC Certified is a military class burn-in test for motherboards. Running Prime95 for over 24 hours with a highly overclocked CPU is already a stressing endeavor, but removing all airflow from the motherboard ensures that only the best motherboards survive. From the Enhanced PWM with a large amount of power phases and a Thermal Design that give users the best stability, to easy features that ensure users don't need any tricks to get great stability while overclocking.

Water Cooling Heat Sink

Featuring a new unique heat sink design, MSI Z97 XPOWER AC ensures the best cooling performance. Saving water cooling enthusiasts the need to buy a waterblock, this motherboard features a built-in solution within the heat sink. Whether users choose a traditional air cooling or enthusiast water cooling solution, be sure to expect the lowest temperatures and maximum performance under the most extreme conditions.
