B150M ICAFE LGA 1151 platform

The MSI B150M ICAFE is an Intel B150 chipset motherboard built for the LGA 1151 socket. It accepts 6th generation Core i3, i5, i7, Pentium and Celeron processors. Dual-channel DDR4 memory runs at 2133MHz with a 32GB maximum capacity. The Micro ATX form factor fits compact chassis while keeping essential expansion.

Micro ATX layout with dual Ethernet

A single PCIe 3.0 x16 slot and two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots provide room for a graphics card and add-in boards. Six SATA III ports handle multiple drives without a separate controller. Rear I/O supplies four USB 3.0 ports while internal headers add two more USB 3.0 and four USB 2.0 connections. Networking uses one standard RJ45 gigabit port and one 10GbE SFP interface for high-speed uplinks. Realtek ALC887 audio delivers 7.1 channel output.

Bundle adds back-panel and SATA cable

The package includes the motherboard, a CMOS battery, one SATA data cable and a chassis I/O back panel. No WiFi antenna is present because the board lacks an onboard WiFi module. These items let you install the board and connect storage immediately without sourcing extra brackets or cables.

Questions about this item

How fast does the DDR4 2133MHz dual-channel memory interface run in practice?

The board runs dual-channel DDR4 at 2133MHz, capping memory bandwidth at that speed regardless of faster modules installed.

What chassis clearance does the Micro ATX board with one PCIe 3.0 x16 and two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots require?

A Micro ATX case with at least three expansion-slot openings and standard standoff spacing fits the board and its full-length x16 card.

How is the supplied CMOS battery installed, and what step is often missed?

Place the included battery into the onboard holder with the marked side facing up and press until it clicks; skipping the click leaves the board without backup power.
