With a retail price of $158 CDN ($140 USD, £75GBP), MSI have put together a solid upper level gaming platform which can accommodate up to 8GB of PC2-6400 DDR2-800 memory along side any Socket AM2 AMD Athlon64/X2/FX and Sempron processor. The four DDR2 240-pin memory slots (DIMMs) can supply a maximum of 2.45V - handy for overclockers looking to push the boundary. The K9N SLI's six Serial ATA II ports can operate at 3 Gb/s bandwidth and support RAID modes 0, 1, 0+1 and 5 via nVIDIA's MediaShield storage technology. Gone are the days of two IDE channels, which is rather unfortunate, and on the MSI K9N SLI Platinum, the nForce 570 SLI chipset limits us to just one. Bummer.
