Overview
A heatsink shield over the fast storage slot and an extra PCIe power input are the working parts MSI highlights on this desktop motherboard. It takes current AMD Ryzen processors and DDR memory, and its silver styling is meant to match both white and black cases.
Networking is the strongest reason to choose it: current Wi-Fi and multi-gig wired LAN come on the board, so no add-in card is needed. Display output is thin, with a single HDMI port, and parts of the spec sheet contradict each other.
Who it's for
Builders starting a fresh Ryzen system in a white or black case get a board styled to match either. Owners hoping to carry over older memory or an older processor should look elsewhere, since only current memory and recent Ryzen series are listed.
Pros and cons
- Wireless and wired networking built in
- Four DDR5 memory slots
- Heatsink shield over the fast storage slot
- Extra PCIe power input
- Listing names both X870E and X670E chipsets
- Only one HDMI output
- M.2 slot count not listed
- Listing shows only one PCIe slot
Performance notes
Real memory speed depends on the processor's memory controller and the module kit, so the listed clock is a ceiling rather than a promise. Storage speed in the fast slot depends on the heatsink shield holding the drive cool under sustained transfers. Wireless throughput depends on the router supporting the same Wi-Fi generation.
