Computex 2024: MSI reveals range of X870 motherboards for Ryzen 9000
At Computex this week, AMD officially announced its first wave of Zen 5 processors, including the Ryzen 9000 series processors for desktops, and the Ryzen AI 300 (Strix Point) APUs for laptops. As a result of new desktop chips arriving, motherboard makers are also supporting AMD's launch with new X870 chipset motherboards, aiming to offer the best feature set for those looking to upgrade.
At this year’s Computex, the MSI booth will be packed with new X870 chipset motherboards, designed to take full advantage of the new 4nm Ryzen 9000 CPUs. Models like the MAG X870 TOMAHAWK WIFI, as well as MPG and MEG series motherboards.
In this latest generation of motherboards, MSI has unveiled several highly anticipated features, including the all-new “EZ PCIe Release” and “EZ PCIe Clip II.” The EZ PCIe Release enables users to effortlessly remove graphics cards installed in the primary PCIe Gen 5.0 Slot on X870-based motherboards. Meanwhile, the updated EZ PCIe Clip II boasts an improved hooking mechanism, enhancing both removal and installation ease.
When it comes to graphics cards, their increasing size and weight can strain the motherboard. To address this, MSI has enhanced all its motherboards with three additional anchor points and thicker material used for the slots. This modification enables the PCIe slot to be 121% stronger compare to previous generation PCIe Steel Armor slot.
As newer devices continue to advance in speed, MSI's motherboards are also receiving an upgrade. All X870 motherboards are equipped with Lightning PCIe Gen 5.0 and M.2 slots, maximizing the bandwidth potential of modern devices. Additionally, a USB 4 connector is now standard on all MSI X870 motherboards, supporting speeds of up to 40GB/s. These boards also support 5G LAN, WiFi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 technologies for the fastest wireless connections possible too.
