MSI's flagship MEG series exemplifies relentless innovation, continuously setting new benchmarks in the gaming hardware space. This trailblazing series employs pioneering technology to push the boundaries of gaming, consistently leading with innovations that redefine what gamers expect.

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.

AI Engine
provides several categories for you to sync the applications you want to perform and automatically optimizing them to create a comfortable environment.

AI LAN MANAGER
optimizes networking performance and minimizes latency, providing a seamless online experience.

Frozr AI Cooling
automatically adjusts fan duty to make sure the system stays in cool, stable and high performance.

AI Boost
is an MSI exclusive feature. It overclocks NPU to improve higher AI performance.

An easy-to-access physical button release mechanism that can help remove any PCIe card with a single tap, making it much easier to upgrade to a new GPU or other compatible device, streamlining the entire process and enhancing user experience.

Unleash and sustain the maximum performance with a flagship VRM design built with a total of 18+2+1 digital power phases. Combining dual 8 pin power connectors and 110A Smart Power Stage, MEG X870E ACE MAX is ready for the challenge of high-end processors.

OC Engine is a dedicated chip that enables independent Base Clock (BCLK) control for precise tuning through asynchronous mode in MSI BIOS. It boosts performance by up to 15% while keeping iGPU, memory, PCIe and NVMe stable, giving enthusiasts more headroom for record-breaking overclocks.

MSI utilizes PCB Fabric Technology to enhance signal performance, resulting in higher bandwidth and faster data transfer while minimizing signal loss. The PCB Fabric Technology also offers better impedance control and improved thermal stability, allowing the boards to endure demanding conditions. Due to the high-quality materials used, MSI motherboards are highly reliable and well-suited for the requirements of modern technology.

With the rich features of MSI BIOS, you can easily enjoy the powerful performance that overclocking brings.

These rich features also help the motherboard deliver stable and powerful performance.

WAVY Fin Design
Wavy fin array design enlarges up to 50% heat dissipation, provides the maximum surface of heat dissipation.

Direct Touch Cross Heat-pipe
The dual heat-pipe connect two MOS heatsinks to enlarge the surface of heat dissipation.

Aluminum Cover
Fully aluminum IO cover and extended heatsink design provide the maximum surface of heat dissipation.

9W/mK Thermal Pad
High quality 9W/mK MOSFET thermal pads and extra choke thermal pads ensure all cores running in high performcance.

Metal Backplate
The metal baseplate cool down the MOSFET temperature with dedicated thermal pads.

MSI MEG series motherboards are equipped with a 9W/mK MOSFET thermal pad to achieve the highest cooling performance. Compared to the previous generation's 7W/mK thermal pad, the average temperature is reduced by approximately 2.5°C.

Connect and synchronize with MSI coolers and cases with strategically positioned pin-header locations including a dedicated pump-fan header.

The MSI Combo Fan Header is a versatile component, functioning as both a pump and or fan header. The header will automatically detect whether it is either pump or PWM/DC fan, with it's distinctive gray color ensuring easy identification

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 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.

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.

MSI's premium network solution provides incredible data transfer speed for demanding users.

Wi-Fi 7 is the latest wireless solution that takes a huge leap forward with multiple improvements to meet the traffic demand brought and the growing number of wireless devices.

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.
