MSI Z170A Gaming M5

The Enthusiast line is aimed at the most extreme players and shows it by affixing an "M" to each model, a letter chosen to represent the word master and all that it implies in terms of quality, performance, and power.

With standard memory designs, signals are often disrupted by electromagnetic waves from other components, making the system slower and unstable. With DDR4 Boost technology, MSI offers a fully isolated memory circuit that ensures the signal remains pure for optimal performance and excellent stability. This Z170A GAMING M motherboard is 100% GAMING, inside and out. MSI has paid great attention to detail by giving the board a perfect black and red look that will not go unnoticed.

The card's heatsink features the brand's famous dragon and ensures the system stays cool during your longest gaming sessions or during extreme overclocking. Get ready to destroy your enemies on the battlefield with MSI GAMING LAN, thanks to carefully selected components that ensure the best online experience without slowdown.

The Killer LAN E2400 network chip features Advanced Stream Detect 2.0 designed to deliver optimal network performance for online gaming and high-quality streaming. Killer LAN automatically detects video game traffic and accelerates it to take precedence over other traffic to ensure a smoother gaming experience without slowdowns.

Designed to provide the best gaming experience with prioritized traffic and reduced latency, MSI Gaming LAN Manager manages bandwidth to prevent open applications from slowing down the game. MSI GAMING LAN also uses LAN Protect for good protection against electrical overload (15 KV). This protection is represented by a red indicator on the LAN port.

With Audio Boost 3 Pro, in combination with the exclusive Nahimic Sound technology and high-quality electronic components, this motherboard is able to offer the most realistic crystal clear sound on HD speakers or high impedance headphones.
