Mugen Compatibility List

[Geinstein]

Mugen fits like a glove on the MSI NEO3 FR.
Backplate (scythe retention kit) is highly recommended because of the size of the mugen. Getting the pushpins in is hell, so I was pleased that I bought te retention kit as well. Extra copper base is not nessecary in terms of height, but provides a tighter fit on the MOBO.
Northbridge isn't a problem at all.
Memory modules with high coolers might be a problem, mine don't have high coolers (see photo)

Fits just great with the retention-kit.
Also fits with the push-pins!

Hey, I didn't found something via board-search, so I'll ask here.
What about this Mainboard?
I read, that MSI doesn't like Mugen, is it true?

Thanks for your advice!

Wow! Awesome!
Didn't know that it has the same layout. I'm not into Mainboard-Styles at all. ^^

So a huge: "Thanks! ".

Cya!

Asus P5Q, Gigabyte Ep45 DS3(R), Gigabyte EP45 UD3(R)
Are these motherboards compatible with Mugen

[hiroshige]

Gigabyte Ep45 DS3 could be difficult and really close.
Gigabyte EP45 UD3 should be no problem
Asus P5Q is working.

Kind regards,
