With more cores processors, thermal and power design is more important to make sure the temperature keeps lower. MSI extended PWM heatsink and enhanced circuit design ensures even high-end Intel CPU to run in full speed with MSI motherboards.
MSI motherboards let you manage speeds and temperatures for all your system and CPU fans. Total Fan Control allows you check your primary system characteristics in a simplified graphical interface. You can also set up to 4 temperature targets for CPU and motherboard, which will adjust the fan speeds automatically.
World's fastest SSDs can start to lower performance when getting hot. Part of the motherboards heatsink design, M.2 SHIELD FROZR is the next generation M.2 thermal solution to avoid this by offering the best thermal protection to make sure that SSD maintains maximum performance.
Detecting CPU & GPU temperatures and automatically adjusting fan duty of system fans to a proper value by adopting MSI AI ENGINE.
Designed to support the most popular All-In-One & customized water cooling solutions on the market. A dedicated water pump PIN header supports up to 3 amp, giving you full control of the water pump speed. A clearly marked ‘keep-out-zone’ allows for easy and safe installation and a perfect fit.
Unleash and sustain maximum performance with an aggressive VRM design built with a digital CPU power system. Combining 8 + 8-pin power connectors and exclusive Core Boost technology, MAG series motherboards are ready to sustain a heavy gaming load.
Core Boost technology combines MSI's premium layout and digital power design which allows for faster and undistorted current delivery to the CPU at pin-point precision. This creates the perfect conditions for multi-core CPU while high-loading operation.
MSI Game Boost enables one-second overclocking, giving you the performance boost you need to get more FPS.
Featuring a pre-installed IO shield to make your installation process easier and safer. The patent-pending design protects your IO ports and also prevents electrostatic discharge damage.
MSI's innovative EZ M.2 clip assist you install an M.2 SSD quickly and effortlessly.
Utilizing 12th Gen Intel processors, MSI B660 motherboards feature latest Lightning Gen 4 M.2 which is the fastest onboard storage solution on the market with up to 64 Gb/s transfer speed.
MSI B660 motherboards support all the latest storage standards, which allows users to connect any ultra-fast storage device. Higher efficiency makes your work easier.
PC Enthusiasts can now enjoy the performance of an SSD on their HDD by coupling it with the new Intel® Optane™ Memory device. Intel® Optane™ technology provides an unparalleled combination of high throughput, low latency, high quality of service, and high endurance.
2.5Gbps LAN provides incredible data transfer speed faster than general Gigabit LAN. This is a premium solution for demanding users.
WIFI 6 adopts the latest OFDMA and two-way MU-MIMO technologies and can provide up to 4X network capacity and efficiency. Compared to the WIFI 5, which can only send the data packet to one device at a time on each channel, WIFI 6 can combine the packets, separate to several devices and allow signals from the different devices to be bundled together. This new technology provides all the devices in the same network environment with same and harmonious traffic bandwidth in an efficient way to increase overall network performance.
MSI LAN Manager automatically classifies and prioritizes the latency-sensitive applications for online games, giving you the best online gaming experience with low latency.
Make sure you enjoy the purest sound quality in both stereo and surround sound with the Audio Boost dedicated sound processor. High quality audio capacitors give a high fidelity sound experience with exceptional acoustics and realism for a studio level audio experience. High quality audio jacks keep your sound perfect by transmitting a pure digital signal.
Like a dedicated sound card, audio components and circuits have been laid on a reserved motherboard section and electrically isolated. Using separated layers in the PCB ensures equally pristine sound quality for both left and right audio channels.
Audio Boost protects your ears by eliminating those annoying loud popping sounds when you plug/unplug devices or turn your PC on/off.
Using USB 3.2 devices has never been faster! MAG B660 series motherboards offer a wide variety of options to connect and boost your USB devices, offering never before seen USB speeds up to 20Gb/s when connecting the Rear USB Type-C.
MSI gaming motherboards support USB Front Type-C that allows gamers to connect with the latest USB devices.
Add more color if you want! Mystic Light Extension pin header provides an intuitive way to control additional RGB strips and other RGB peripherals added to a system, without needing a separate RGB controller.
