Socket LGA 1150 Micro ATX board

The MSI H81M-E33 PLUS is a Micro ATX motherboard built around the Intel H81 chipset and LGA 1150 socket. It accepts 4th Generation Intel Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron processors. The compact form factor suits smaller chassis while keeping essential desktop connectivity.

Dual-channel DDR3 up to 16 GB

Two memory slots support dual-channel DDR3 at 1600, 1333 and 1066 MHz, with a maximum capacity of 16 GB. This provides headroom for everyday multitasking and mainstream workloads; heavier content-creation tasks will hit the ceiling. Storage connects through two SATA III and two SATA II ports.

One PCIe 2.0 x16 and one x1 slot

A single PCIe 2.0 x16 slot handles a graphics card while a PCIe 2.0 x1 slot remains for add-in cards such as sound or networking. Rear I/O supplies two USB 3.1 Gen1 ports and four USB 2.0 ports; four more USB 2.0 headers sit on-board. Realtek ALC887 audio and RTL8111G Gigabit LAN cover basic media and network needs.

Questions about this item

Will my existing LGA 1150 Core i5 and DDR3 1333 modules work with this H81 board?

The board accepts 4th Gen Intel Core i7/i5/i3/Pentium/Celeron CPUs in the LGA 1150 socket and runs dual-channel DDR3 at 1600, 1333 or 1066 MHz up to 16 GB total.

How do I confirm the Realtek ALC887 audio and RTL8111G LAN are active after first boot?

Open Device Manager; both the High Definition Audio Controller and the Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller should appear without warning icons, then test sound output and network link lights.

Which cables and brackets come in the box so I know what to buy separately?

The package includes the motherboard, a CMOS battery, one SATA cable and the chassis I/O back panel; no Wi-Fi antenna, extra SATA cables or mounting screws are supplied.
