MSI motherboards are designed with advanced hardware and technology, well-supporting the demanding computing usage of gaming and AI. Moreover, we also introduce AI to MSI Center and BIOS, making everything more effortless than before.

One Finger for EZ GPU Installation
The new EZ PCIe Clip II, located on the first slot, features the rebounding force mechanism that allows for easy removal of the graphics card by pressing the tail-like lock with one finger. Due to this exquisite design, users can uninstall the graphics cards effortlessly, even in the cramped case spaces.

MSI motherboards circuitry ensure the case standoff keep out zones are pure and clean. Moreover, the protective paint is printed around each screw hole to prevent parts from being scratched or damaged to the motherboard.

MSI EZ Antenna makes the process effortless by simply attaching fasteners to the motherboard without rotation.

EZ DEBUG LED
Onboard LEDs will indicate the source of the problem so you know exactly where to look to get up and running again.

EZ Memory Detection LED
This LED lights up when it detects faulty memory in slots, eliminating guesswork from troubleshooting.

12+2+1 DRPS POWER DESIGN
Unleash and sustain the maximum performance with a flagship VRM design built with a total of 12+2+1 digital power phases. With dual power connectors, PRO B850-S WIFI6E is ready for the challenge of high-end processors.

OPTIMIZED PCB SOLUTION
The PCB design has been optimized for higher bandwidth and faster transfer speeds, which is also beneficial for reliable circuit transmission.

DDR5 MEMORY SUPPORT WITH HIGH PERFORMANCE
A huge step of DDR performance enhancement with the latest DDR5 memory. Combines with dedicated SMT welding process and MSI Memory Boost technology, PRO B850M-P WIFI is ready to deliver the world-class memory performance.

The High-Efficiency Mode is designed to optimize memory performance byincreasing memory bandwidth and reducing latency. With the four sets of RAM timing settings, it allows users to find out the optimal configuration based on the quality of their memory modules.

MSI BIOS has introduced the latest Latency Killer feature on all AM5 socket motherboards. Users can enable Latency Killer in the BIOS to reduce memory latency by up to 12% when running at high frequencies. Importantly, it is compatible with a wide range of memory overclocking features, including Memory Try It!!, EXPO, A-XMP, and High-Efficiency Mode, etc.

Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS)
Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) are safety devices used to protect against excessive voltage. All motherboard models of MSI are equipped with TVS. When the voltage abnormally rises, the TVS switches from a high-resistance state to a low-resistance state, diverting the excessive voltage to ground. This helps prevent circuit damage caused by high voltage.

solid pin design
The 4-pin, 8-pin, and 24-pin power connectors of MSI motherboards are all designed with solid pins. The solid pin design allows for a more stable transmission of 12V power to the CPU, even when handling high current loads.

Anti-corrosive Stainless Steel IO Shield
An extra layer of sponge materials along with corrosive resistance IO Shield to help improve static electricity and reduce electromagnetic radiation noise from the system as well as much more durable compare to traditional IO Shields.

Over Current Protection
MSI motherboards prioritize safety with the embedded Overcurrent Protection (OCP), ensuring crucial components such as the USB ports, DDR memory, PWM IC, and CPU are shielded from excessive current. This proactive defense mechanism curtails the risk of damage or malfunction due to power surges, promoting long-term system stability. This commitment to safeguarding your hardware underscores MSI's dedication to producing motherboards that prioritize durability and stability.

The Grounding Structure of Power Phases
The grounding structure of power phases is the MSI's exclusive design. This patented design enables to suppress the electromagnetic interference (EMI) generated by the power phases and helps to efficiently conduct heat to the copper plane with grounding properties.

DIY 2.0 – INTEGRATING WITH THE SYSTEM ENVIRONMENT
Connect and synchronize with MSI coolers and cases with strategically positioned pin-header locations including a dedicated pump-fan header.

Cooling Wizard
Cooling Wizard serves as a comprehensive solution for managing fan settings across all MSI products. It ensures superior cooling performance and noise reduction for your gaming PC, offering compatibility with PWM/DC fans and pumps, customizable options, and intuitive temperature monitoring for optimal operation with one click.

Frozr AI Cooling
Frozr AI Cooling targets CPU and GPU temperatures. The AI system detects CPU and GPU temperatures and automatically adjusts the fan duty of system fans to ensure optimal performance.

Auto Detect Fan
MSI fan headers automatically detect fans running in DC or PWM mode for optimal tuning of fan speeds and silence. Hysteresis also makes your fans spin up fluently to make sure your system stays silent, no matter what.

HIGH-BANDWIDTH AND LOW-LATENCY NETWORK
MSI's premium network solution provides incredible data transfer speed for demanding users.

AI LAN Manager
MSI AI LAN Manager automatically classifies and prioritizes the latency-sensitive applications for online games, giving you the best online gaming experience with low latency.

FAST AND FUTURE-READY STORAGE
