You get the full ATX layout, four DDR5 slots and a proper VRM heatsink for less than a mid-range B650 board typically costs, which leaves more of the budget where it belongs, on the GPU. It suits a Ryzen 5 or Ryzen 7 gaming build, or an office and content machine that needs plenty of drives and cards. AM5 also means the CPU socket has years of support left, so this is a build you can refresh rather than replace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKnow what B840 leaves out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eB840 is the most basic 800-series chipset. It does not offer the PCIe 5.0 lanes that B850 and X870 boards provide for graphics or storage, and the chipset's overall lane count and USB provisioning are more modest. Memory overclocking headroom is also more limited than on the higher tiers. If you are buying a Gen5 NVMe drive, planning several high-speed peripherals, or intending to push an expensive memory kit hard, spend the extra on a B850. For a straightforward gaming build at stock settings, none of that will bother you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtended VRM heatsink design for stable power delivery under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel Armor reinforcement on the primary PCIe x16 slot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM.2 Shield Frozr heatsink on the primary NVMe slot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with external antenna\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEZ DEBUG LED and pre-mounted rear I\/O shield\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: MSI B840 Gaming Plus WiFi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChipset: AMD B840\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocket: AMD Socket AM5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm Factor: ATX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemory: 4 x DDR5 DIMM, dual channel, up to 256GB, AMD EXPO overclocking profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpansion Slots: 1 x reinforced PCIe x16 slot plus additional PCIe expansion slots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorage: 2 x M.2 slots for NVMe SSDs, 4 x SATA 6Gb\/s ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNetworking: Wired LAN with integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio: 7.1-channel HD audio codec\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear I\/O: HDMI, DisplayPort, LAN, Wi-Fi antenna connectors, audio jacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB: USB 3.2 Type-C and Type-A rear ports with front-panel USB headers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 3 Year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHAT'S IN THE BOX:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMSI B840 Gaming Plus WiFi motherboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSATA data cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWi-Fi antenna\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM.2 mounting screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick start guide and driver media\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy MSI?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMSI prices its Gaming Plus boards to be the sensible middle of the range rather than the cheapest thing on the shelf, and the build quality reflects that.
