MSI B85M-G43
An MSI mATX motherboard designed for the new Intel Haswell processor family. Its features make it ideal for modern home entertainment and gaming. Its fitted, high-quality components (coils, capacitors) are all Military Class 4 certified for stability, reliability, and a long service life. Achieve even the most arduous of tasks with ease, race against all the odds, and shoot your way up to the top.
The motherboard is equipped with the Intel B85 chipset that delivers everything you could ever expect from a modern-day motherboard. The high-speed SATA III accommodates hard drives, while the latest generation PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot is ready to take on any graphics card you can throw at it. And if you are planning on adding that second graphics card, even that isn't out of the question. Rounding out the board's impressive hardware equipment are the 8-channel audio and USB 3.0 ports for a faster data transfer bandwidth that is perfect for both external drives and flashdrives. Not only does it support up to three display elements, but also Ultra HD 4K resolution! And with the unique OC Genie Technology 4, you can easily overclock in just one second.
The motherboard supports Intel Small Business Advantage (SBA), which features built-in IT support. Intel SBA acts as a virtual IT specialist that takes care of security, automatically backs up your data, defragments your disks, erases cookies, and much more. It makes management easy, saving you both time and energy. Three more Intel features include Intel Rapid Start, Intel Smart Response and Intel Smart Connect, which help to ensure a faster boot and higher system performance. Click BIOS 4 delivers a great looking and highly functional interface for comprehensive computer management.
The board provides a wireless interface through the unique Command Center function, which will certainly please mobile iOS users. If you have an iOS phone or tablet, you can use it to monitor the motherboard's parameters or start overclocking straightaway. Command Center also supports video playback and control.
