MSI announced the brand new Socket AM5 motherboards which includes MEG X670E GODLIKE, MEG X670E ACE, MPG X670E CARBON WIFI and PRO X670-P WIFI to the brand-new AMD X670 Motherboard product lineup. MSI's X670 motherboards and AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors are here for a new generation of high-speed and efficient computing. As a world-leading motherboard brand MSI's X670 motherboards are designed to provide the best every performance for gamers, creators and users. With the latest AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors, MSI is ready to push this platform by provided the best performance available for everyone. In use of the 5 nm architecture and an all-new DDR5 platform, AMD Ryzen 7950X processors will have a ~13% IPC uplift with a boost frequency of up to 5.70 GHz and an average 29% Single Thread Performance gain compared to last generation,. Let's take a look at some of the new features from MSI X670 Motherboards.

"MSI's new lineup of X670 motherboards are purposefully designed to give users a new generation of high-speed, efficient computing with AMD Ryzen 7000 Series Desktop processors," said David McAfee, Corporate Vice President and General Manager, Client Channel Business Unit, AMD. "Optimized for performance-enhancing features like AMD EXPO and Precision Boost Overdrive, together AMD and MSI are pushing the boundaries of performant computing."



MSI OC Features For AM5 Platform
Performance Switch is a brand-new function within the MSI Click BIOS 5. In addition to default PBO "Precision Boost Overdrive" and MSI's own overclocking setting, Performance Switch provides 3 presets and a manual choice. This function provides not only to newcomer but also allow hardcore gamers to unleash the performance of AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors.

PBO Enhanced Mode is a continuation of a function that exists in the AM4 platform which optimize performance for "Precision Boost Overdrive", providing a sets of default values and also a manual value for the users who's more familiar with AMD PBO.

MSI has the OC Engine to help the eCLK for more precisely to ensure stability and performance when overclocking. With the OC Engine that is equip in the MEG Series, other than just having the ability to adjust the BCLK, but also changing frequency of PCIe and SATA can also be either synchronously or asynchronously.

This generation of AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors, AMD has introduced a brand-new feature called AMD EXPO technology which stands for "EXtended Profiles for Overclocking". This AMD EXPO technology allows users to overclock their DDR5 memory with AMD certified EXPO profiles in the BIOS, as well as XMP memory modules will also be supported in the MSI's AMD motherboard too. It is a much easier way to find an appropriated profile to boost performance with ease.

"Memory Try It" is a well-known function of MSI. For AM5 platform, this function has fine-tuned the FCLK and adjustment to improve memory performance by up to 18% and reduce latency by about 12%, which is from the new SMT process that allows the memory to maintain high-speed transfer. As shown on MSI MEG X670E ACE Motherboard which can reach memory speeds up to 7000 MHz easily without any stability issue.

With MSI's X670 Motherboards comes with the AGESA COMBO PI 1.0.0.1 Patch H BIOS to help shorten the very first boot time. The latest AGESA COMBO PI 1.0.0.3 is also available to download for a more refine version.

The M-Vision dashboard of MEG X670E GODLIKE is back with a bigger display and more features than before. This time around, the M-Vision dashboard is a now a separate individual display which has a magnetic back that allows you to place it around or inside your PC case. This allows the M-Vision Dashboard to become a secondary display to provide a lot more details of your system status, System Operation, and information, Tools and Hot Key for system tuning etc. It is just as simple as Plug and Play via a USB Type-C cable.

The MEG X670E GODLIKE also comes with a M.2 XPander-Z Gen5 Dual add-in card to support 2 more M.2 Storage. It has a 50 mm Double Ball Bearing Smart Fan Control to regulate and cool the M.2 SSD as efficiently as possible. The XPander-Z Gen5 Dual is design for PCIe Gen5 in mind, with both slots support transfer speed up to PCIe 5.0 x4 128 Gb/s and are both compatible with 25110 devices.

Tested with MSI's SPATIUM PCIe 5.0 SSDs in RAID 0 configuration shown above, the two Gen 5 x4 M.2 SSDs fitted inside perform exceptionally fast and impressive read and write speeds. It reaches up to 19,700 MB/s read speeds and up to 22,900 MB/s write speeds while having the temperature under control as the Double Ball Bearing Smart Fan takes the heat away from the SSDs with its maximum performance.

I think MSI could stand to lose the dragon logos on everything.
True. But at least they haven't gotten to the point where it's literally plastered on everything.... Looking at you, Asus, and that dumb ass eye logo of yours.

MSI Godlike is the best looking style aesthetics on a motherboard I've ever seen anywhere for a motherboard it's like it was chiseled from stone perfectly. It's the motherboard you take to you with your grave because you can no longer afford a casket to be buried in, but who needs one of those anyway when you've got a Godlike motherboard!!? ;)

I had a look at the Manuals of These boards last night
The Godlike is the only one that supports SLI and AMD mutli-GPU
The rest of the boards all support AMD muli-GPU
most others do not have their manuals up yet

Too bad SLI as we know it is pretty much dead now. I don't think the 4090 even supports it anymore.

If multi GPUs setups were already considered niche back when they were "popular", GPUs have become so powerful by themselves nowdays that you really don't need more than one of them. Only scenario I can see the benefit of having more than one GPU is for professionals in the 3D arts.

Why does everyone do you all turn the aggrument into Niche product talk it's not about Niche product it's about having the choice

you all want whine about how much a 4090 is and that can use up 600 watts & takes up 4 slots but don't want to own up to the fact that gamers are the ones whos driven this limited amount of choices.

Sick & tired of it.
