Hardware Design
The MPG leverages a 16+1+1 duet rail system to ensure proper electrical layout and throughput for your system. Six PCB layers with 2oz thickened copper materials and sever-grade materials add reliability, ensuring optimized circuit transmission.
Cooling Solution
Ensure your system is properly cooled to maintain optimal performance with an extended VRM heatsink, direct-touch heat pipe, 7W/mK thermal pad, and enlarged PCH heatsink. Enhanced M.2 Thermal layout with M.2 Shield Frozr technology prevents performance throttling by dissipating heat quickly.
DIY Friendly
A variety of user-friendly enhancements allow seasoned and new builders to get their system off the ground easier, streamlining the installation processes. Screwless M.2 storage removes screws and allows quick storage installation. Clear CMOS and Flash BIOS buttons allow you to update the motherboard to keep your hardware up to date. Additionally, you get a variety of improvements including a pre-installed I/O shield, EZ Debug LEDs, EZ LED Control, Keep Out Zone, and XL Clip.
Expansion Design
A single PCIe 5.0 x16 expansion slot offers enhanced data transfer speeds suitable for powerful graphics cards and uses MSI's Steel Armor covering which reinforces the slot to handle larger and heavier cards.
Audio Enhancements
Incorporating an isolated audio signal that is separated at the PCB level to prevent audio crosstalk, the MPG ensures deep and immersive audio for your games and streaming media. High quality audio capacitors empower the audio jacks and S/PDIF connectors with improved sound for your headsets and speakers. You also get De-pop protection, dedicated headphone amplifier, and a high-performance ALC4080 audio processor for greater audio quality.
