MSI announces the MSI B350I Pro AC motherboard, which has been designed for AMD Ryzen processors and especially for the new AMD Raven Ridge APUs, which are very close to hitting the market.
A new motherboard has been announced by MSI, in this case intended for current AMD Ryzen processors, in a compact format. We are talking specifically about the MSI B350I Pro AC motherboard, which has the AM4 socket, which, as we already know, will have life until 2020, so we will have a motherboard for years. This motherboard is compact, specifically the mini-ITX, but just because it is a compact motherboard, it does not mean that it is a motherboard that lacks things, on the contrary, it is very well supplied.
This motherboard has a high quality VRM PWM power phase system, with six power phases in 6 + 2 + 1 configuration, making this motherboard the first for AMD to offer this configuration. Additionally, Military Class type components have been integrated, providing this motherboard with high-quality components that will offer us great durability.
The motherboard has two DIMM sockets for DDR4 memory that supports up to 32GB @ 3200MHz, which promises an enhancement of the performance of good AMD processors. The motherboard features a shielded PCIe 3.0 x16 port, allowing the installation of a high-performance graphics card. Regarding connectivity, this motherboard has four SATA 6Gbps ports, an M.2 SSD port (apparently located at the bottom of the motherboard), Gigabit Ethernet connectivity and combined with an 802.11ac WiFi module.
Regarding the I / O panel, it has two USB 3.1 Gen2 ports, a USB 3.1 Gen1 port, two USB 2.0 ports and a PS / 2 connector, which can be used for keyboard or mouse indifferently. Regarding the video outputs, a DisplayPort and an HDMI have been integrated, thinking about the Raven Ridge APUs, which are close to hitting the market. On the price of this motherboard or the date of arrival on the market, we have no data.
