That's interesting, because I just spent 30 seconds browing that product's info and I found it mention PCI Express 2.0 bus.

It's fixed now, can you find any more things I can bug our webmasters with? :laugh:

This thread really isn't about what's wrong on the MSI website, as there is plenty....

ie: http://www.msi.com/product/mb/760GM-P33.html (PCI Express bus)

Yes. The GD65 G3 says B3 in the title when you click on the page. :slap:

No, it says "Intel® Z68 (B3) Chipset Based"

The title etc. say (G3) nicely: http://www.msi.com/product/mb/Z68A-GD65--G3-.html
