Product Information

nn FULLY CONTROLLABLE IN BIOS AND SOFTWAREnMSI motherboards let you manage speeds and temperatures for all your system and CPU fans. Another feature that is found in higher-end motherboards, but it will never be used on this one because of Clear CMOS placement, among other things previously discussed.

In saying that, if like me, having built-in wifi is something that you are interested in or indeed, need, then this Mobo has you covered as it has wifi 6.The four RAM banks support up to 128 GB DDR4 RAM with a clock rate of up to 3200 megahertz and can even handle clock rates up to 4400 MHz via OC. PCI slots allow you to connect peripherals to the motherboard, most commonly graphics cards but also others such as sound cards and network cards. BIOS was fairly easy to use, although I felt it needs to be easier to recognize when you are in EASY mode and not in ADVANCED mode.

However, once I found the easy mode, it was great and helped me change my fan speeds and do some slight overclocking without problem.

This did not happen on my previous Gigabyte motherboard, with the same steps, booting up after forgetting to plug in PCI-E power to the exact same 3080. I feel that unless you have a precise reason to use a Micro-ATX motherboard, this isn't on my recommended list for normal use. nnAudio Boost protects your ears by eliminating those annoying loud popping sounds when you plug/unplug devices or turn your PC on/off.I'm planning to upgrade my motherboard, and i was wondering if anyone that has this motherboard would recommend it. Just wanted to mention that there is a promotion on the MSI homepage offering the game Assassins Creed Valhalla.

Alas, my time has run out for this motherboard review and it is time to say my final thoughts on this subject. nn ENHANCED PERFORMANCEnHigh performance MSI motherboards are loaded with advanced features and the latest technology to overwhelm any challenge at hand no matter whether you’re a gamer, prosumer, or PC enthusiast.The four RAM banks support up to 128 GB of DDR4 main memory with a clock rate of up to 3,200 megahertz and can even handle clock rates of up to 4,400 MHz via OC.
