Description
The MSI B840 GAMING PLUS WIFI motherboard, based on the AMD B840 chipset, supports AMD AM5 processors with Granite Ridge, Phoenix, and Raphael cores. The model is designed for building a powerful gaming system and is suitable for creating a high-performance general-purpose PC. With dimensions of 305x244 mm, the device conforms to the Standard-ATX form factor and is built using a 6-layer PCB with increased copper content. Thanks to its multi-layer design, the model offers enhanced resistance to electromagnetic interference. As a result, PC stability is improved and performance increases. The MSI B840 GAMING PLUS WIFI motherboard supports the MSI AI ENGINE system, which utilizes artificial intelligence to optimize computer operation. FROZR AI COOLING technology automatically adjusts fan speeds to deliver the optimal balance between noise level and cooling intensity. An advantage of the model is the presence of Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) and Bluetooth 5.4 modules. Wireless connections are made without requiring third-party equipment.
