It is part of MSI's PRO Series, built for stable, straightforward systems such as office PCs, home machines and budget gaming builds. Turbo M.2 runs at PCIe Gen3 x4 for NVMe SSDs, four SATA ports cover extra drives, and HDMI and DVI-D outputs let you run a Ryzen APU or Athlon with integrated graphics without a graphics card.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat to keep in mind\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a DDR4 board with two DIMM slots and a 64GB maximum, so plan capacity up front, for example 2x 16GB. It will not take AM5 Ryzen processors or DDR5 memory; for a new long-term gaming build, an AM5 board offers a better upgrade path. The single PCIe x16 slot runs at Gen3, which is fine for entry and mid-range graphics cards. MSI lists support for 1st to 3rd Gen Ryzen, so check MSI's CPU support list before pairing it with a newer AM4 chip. There is no Wi-Fi onboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTurbo M.2 running at PCIe Gen3 x4 for NVMe SSDs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCore Boost premium power layout with digital power design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio Boost with Realtek ALC897 codec\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eX-Boost software for storage and USB performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRealtek 8125 2.5Gbps LAN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: B450M-A PRO MAX II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocket: AM4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCPU Support: 1st, 2nd and 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen \/ Ryzen with Radeon Vega Graphics, 2nd Gen Ryzen with Radeon Graphics, Athlon with Radeon Vega Graphics, A-series \/ Athlon X4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChipset: AMD B450\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm Factor: Micro-ATX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemory Type: DDR4, dual channel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemory Slots: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax Memory: 64GB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemory Speed: 1866–2667 MHz (JEDEC), up to 4133 MHz (A-XMP OC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpansion Slots: 1x PCIe 3.0 x16, 1x PCIe x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorage: 1x M.2 (PCIe 3.0 x4), 4x SATA III\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear USB: 4x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, 2x USB 2.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront USB: 2x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, 4x USB 2.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVideo Outputs: 1x HDMI 2.0b (up to 4K 60Hz), 1x DVI-D (up to 1920 x 1200 60Hz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLAN: Realtek 8125 2.5Gbps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio: Realtek ALC897\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTPM Header: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSerial Port Header: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating System: Windows 11 64-bit, Windows 10 64-bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 3 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWHAT'S IN THE BOX:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMSI B450M-A PRO MAX II Motherboard – Black x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDriver DVD x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI\/O shield x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSATA cables x2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick install guide x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy MSI?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMSI's PRO Series motherboards are designed for stable, reliable systems in homes and businesses.
