MSI, a world-wide leading manufacturer of computer components and systems, today in conjunction with THX and Creative announced its new Big Bang gaming motherboard, the first ever to implement THX TruStudio PC™ with Creative EAX® ADVANCED HD™ 5.0 audio technology.

Big Bang features QuantumWave™ audio processing, combining THX TruStudio PC with Creative EAX ADVANCED HD 5.0 to deliver the most powerful and realistic gaming audio performance available from any motherboard.

THX TruStudio PC™ provides groundbreaking PC audio technologies, the result of collaborative research and development from Creative and THX. Together, these technologies deliver the fullest audio experience for music, movies and games, while remaining true to the intention of the artists who created it.
Press release


The Big Bang is going to have a Creative + THX based audio riser card. Not clear if it is merely software EAX featues or whether there is an actual SoundBlaster on the board, but I suppose we have to see.

So...they're cramming in as much tech as possible. Nice. How can this MSI board fail?

Oh yeah, those performance numbers...(hope it's good!).

Man, this is a seriously ambitious board, seems like a pretty risky venture for MSI
