Product Overview
Why MSI OVERCLOCKING Motherboards
The MSI Z87 MPOWER motherboard is designed based on four principles:
Professional overclockers feedback must be integrated
Continue MSI's leading position in power efficiency and stability
Only use essential OC tools
Infuse the DNA of MSI's Lightning graphics cards
OC Certified is a military class burn-in test for motherboards. Running Prime95 for over 24 hours with a highly overclocked CPU is already a stressing endeavor, but removing all airflow from the motherboard ensures that only the best motherboards survive. If a motherboard can survive this, it can survive any overclocking situation.
The MSI Z87 MPOWER motherboard is equipped with all the necessary features to make sure you get the most out of your system. From the Enhanced PWM and Thermal Design that give you the best stability to all the easy features that ensure that you don't have to perform a lot of tricks to get great stability in your quest for performance.
• Intel® Z87 Express Chipset
• Supports 4th Gen Intel® Core™ / Pentium® / Celeron® processors for LGA 1150 socket inc Haswell
• Supports DDR3-3000(OC) Memory
• Supports USB 3.0 + SATA 6Gb/s
• 16 Phase DigitALL Power Design
• Multi-GPU: NVIDIA SLI & AMD CrossFire Support
• OC Certified: Military Class Burn-in Test Passed
• Military Class 4: Top Quality & Stability
• OC Genie 4: Overclock in 1 Second
• Click BIOS 4: Easily Fine-tune Your System
• PCI Express Gen 3: World's 1st PCI Express Gen 3 Motherboard Brand
• Audio Boost: Reward Your Ears with True Quality
• Killer Ethernet: Kill Your Lag
• Sound Blaster Cinema: Realistic Surround Sound Experience
• Lucid Virtu MVP 2.0: Uncompromised Game Response Performance
• Wi-Fi 802.11n, Bluetooth 4.0, Intel® Wireless Display
The OC PCB used for the MSI OVERCLOCKING motherboards is a completely new design where 50% more layers are used. This allows us to optimize all traces for overclocking. Power and signal traces are isolated, resulting in higher efficiency and performance and more features can be installed relatively close to each other without causing interference. Every MSI OVERCLOCKING motherboard is tuned for better stability under extreme circumstances.
