B365 Chipset LGA 1151 Micro-ATX Board

The MSI B365M WIND is a micro-ATX motherboard built around the Intel B365 chipset for LGA 1151 300-series processors. It accepts 8th and 9th generation Intel Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs. The board provides two DDR4 memory slots with support for speeds up to 2666 MHz when overclocked.

Builders Needing Basic Expansion

This board suits users assembling a compact office or entry-level gaming system that relies on the CPU integrated graphics via the HDMI port. It is not for builders who need more than two memory slots, more than one full-length PCIe slot, or onboard Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity.

Two DDR4 Slots With 32 GB Maximum Capacity

The decisive specification is the two DDR4 slots limited to 32 GB total capacity; if the build requires four populated slots or a higher memory ceiling, this motherboard will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 2666 MHz DDR4 speed or stick with 2400 MHz for this board?

The board runs DDR4 at 2666 MHz when overclocked and at 2400 MHz by default, so choose 2666 MHz modules if you plan to enable XMP, otherwise 2400 MHz works without changes.

What does the 2666 (OC) MHz memory rating actually deliver once the system is built?

With XMP enabled the memory runs at 2666 MHz in dual-channel mode across the two slots, giving the maximum supported bandwidth for 9th and 8th Gen Intel Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs.

How many SATA 6Gb/s ports does the B365 chipset provide for drives?

The Intel B365 chipset supplies six SATA 6Gb/s ports, all usable for hard drives or SATA SSDs.
