CPU Socket
Introduction to the AM5 CPU
The surface of the AM5 CPU has two notches and a golden triangle to assist in
correctly lining up the CPU for motherboard placement. The golden triangle is
the Pin 1 indicator.
Important
- When changing the processor, the system configuration could be cleared and reset BIOS to default values, due to the AM5 processor’s architecture.
- Always unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing or removing the CPU.
- Please retain the CPU protective cap after installing the processor. MSI will deal with Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests if only the motherboard comes with the protective cap on the CPU socket.
- When installing a CPU, always remember to install a CPU heatsink. A CPU heatsink is necessary to prevent overheating and maintain system stability.
- Confirm that the CPU heatsink has formed a tight seal with the CPU before booting your system.
- Overheating can seriously damage the CPU and motherboard. Always make sure the cooling fans work properly to protect the CPU from overheating. Be sure to apply an even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsink to enhance heat dissipation.
- Whenever the CPU is not installed, always protect the CPU socket pins by covering the socket with the plastic cap.
- If you purchased a separate CPU and heatsink/ cooler, Please refer to the documentation in the heatsink/ cooler package for more details about installation.
- This motherboard is designed to support overclocking. Before attempting to overclock, please make sure that all other system components can tolerate overclocking. Any attempt to operate beyond product specifications is not recommended. MSI® does not guarantee the damages or risks caused by inadequate operation beyond product specifications.
DIMM Slots
Important
- Always insert memory modules in the DIMMB1 slot first.
- To ensure system stability for Dual channel mode, memory modules must be of the same type, number and density.
- Some memory modules may operate at a lower frequency than the marked value when overclocking due to the memory frequency operates dependent on its Serial Presence Detect (SPD). Go to BIOS and find the DRAM Frequency to set the memory frequency if you want to operate the memory at the marked or at a higher frequency.
- It is recommended to use a more efficient memory cooling system for full DIMMs installation or overclocking.
- The stability and compatibility of installed memory module depend on installed CPU and devices when overclocking.
- Please refer to www.msi.com for more information on compatible memory.
PCI_E1: PCIe Expansion Slot
Important
- If you install a large and heavy graphics card, you need to use a tool such as MSI Graphics Card Bolster to support its weight to prevent deformation of the slot.
- When adding or removing expansion card, always turn off the power supply and unplug the power supply power cable from the power outlet. Read the expansion card’s documentation to check for any necessary additional hardware or software changes.
M2_1~2: M.2 Slots (Key M)
Important
If your M.2 SSD equips its own heatsink, please remove the M.2 plate or rubber
cube in the M.2 slot before installing M.2 SSD. Do not re-install the heatsink
supplied with your motherboard.
Installing M.2 module into M2_1 slot
-
Loosen the screws of M.2 Shield Frozr heatsink.
-
Remove the M.2 Shield Frozr and remove the protective films from the thermal pad under the M.2 Shield Frozr.
-
Remove the protective films from the thermal pad on the M.2 plate.
-
Move and fasten the M.2 standoff screw to the appropriate location for 2260 M.2
SSD. Skip this step if you install 2280 SSD. -
Insert your M.2 SSD into the M2_1 slot at a 30-degree angle.
-
Secure the M.2 SSD in place with the supplied M.2 screw.
-
Put the M.2 Shield Frozr heatsink back in place and secure it.
Installing M.2 module into M2_2 slot
- Insert your M.2 SSD into the M2_2 slot at a 30-degree angle.
- Secure the M.2 SSD in place with the supplied M.2 screw.
SATA_1~4: SATA 6Gb/s Connectors
These connectors are SATA 6Gb/s interface ports. Each connector can connect to
one SATA device.
Important
- Please do not fold the SATA cable at a 90-degree angle. Data loss may result during transmission otherwise.
- SATA cables have identical plugs on either sides of the cable. However, it is recommended that the flat connector be connected to the motherboard for space saving purposes.

Functions may vary depending on the product you have.
UEFI BIOS
MSI UEFI BIOS is compatible with UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface)
architecture. UEFI has many new functions and advantages that traditional BIOS
cannot achieve, and it will completely replace BIOS in the future. The MSI
UEFI BIOS uses UEFI as the default boot mode to take full advantage of the
new chipset’s capabilities.
Important
The term BIOS in this user guide refers to UEFI BIOS unless otherwise noted.
UEFI advantages
- Fast booting – UEFI can directly boot the operating system and save the BIOS selftest process. And also eliminates the time to switch to CSM mode during POST.
- Supports for hard drive partitions larger than 2 TB.
- Supports more than 4 primary partitions with a GUID Partition Table (GPT).
- Supports unlimited number of partitions.
- Supports full capabilities of new devices – new devices may not provide backward compatibility.
- Supports secure startup – UEFI can check the validity of the operating system to ensure that no malware tampers with the startup process.
Incompatible UEFI cases
- 32-bit Windows operating system – this motherboard supports only Windows 10/ Windows 11 64-bit operating system.
- Older graphics card – the system will detect your graphics card. If you use older graphics cards, it may display a warning message There is no GOP (Graphics Output protocol) support detected in this graphics card.
Important
We recommend that you replace it with a graphics card supporting GOP/UEFI or
use CPU with integrated graphics for having normal function.
How to check the BIOS mode?
- Power on your computer.
- Press Delete key, when the Press DEL key to enter Setup Menu, F11 to enter Boot Menu message appears on the screen during the boot process.
- After entering the BIOS, you can check the BIOS Mode at the top of the screen.

Products with Radio Functionality (EMF)
This product incorporates a radio transmitting and receiving device. For
computers in normal use, a separation distance of 20 cm ensures that radio
frequency exposure levels comply with EU requirements. Products designed to be
operated at closer proximities, such as tablet computers, comply with
applicable EU requirements in typical operating positions. Products can be
operated without maintaining a separation distance unless otherwise indicated
in instructions specific to the product.
Restrictions for Products with Radio Functionality
| CAUTION: IEEE 802.11x wireless LAN with 5.15~5.35 GHz frequency band is
restricted for indoor use only in all European Union member states, EFTA
(Iceland, Norway, Liechtenstein), and most other European countries (e.g.,
Switzerland, Turkey, Republic of Serbia). Using this WLAN application
outdoors might lead to interference issues with existing radio services.
