Ever wonder
what goes on behind the doors of your favorite motherboard manufacturer? We
did, so we went down to MSI and graciously got a tour of their very shiny Fremont office.
|
|
| The outside of MSI's office is very
nice mirrored glass, and a bit blinding in the afternoon sun
:-)
|
|
|
| These two guy's get to test
motherboards all day long...
|
|
|
| The MSI warehouse is in the back of
their office. There are more motherboards in this one room then well... just about anywhere. This is just half of the warehouse, and the
boxes of motherboards are packed about 10-12 feet high in some
areas!
|
|
|
| Ever wonder what happens when you
have trouble with your motherboard and send it back for a good fixing?
This is the RMA room, and it probably has a few hundred boards from all
over North America waiting to be looked at or fixed. According to MSI,
most of the problems they see are very minor, and related to improper
configuration rather than some kind of physical problem.
|
|
|
| The boards are stacked in special
anti-static cartons before they are transported to another room where they
are tested, probed and fixed by a dedicated RMA staff.
|
|
|
| These are just two of MSI's RMA
staff. The special anti-static cartons are packed with motherboards waiting for
some care and attention. Each work station has a wide assortment of tools
so they can properly diagnose problems if there are any, or figure out what
might have been configured improperly.
