    Wow, GT729 - 3700$. Here
    Any way it still comes with ATI HD 4950 with 512MB DDR3.
    The only new thing is DD3 memory support...
    Did any one tried this new BIOS on his MSI with GF 9600GT? I'm thinking are there any advantages from the previous version, or it's just new BIOS that will suport DDR3.

    The new BIOS is only for the market name, no improvement and or extra adjustments.

    I doubt it would be that much concidering the other models are basically the same, and ddr3 is basically, well for less power consumption because the speeds are un-noticable.
