  • CPU Socket TypeLGA 1200
  • CPU TypeIntel Core 11th Gen (LGA 1200)
  • Form FactorATX
  • B560 chipset enables 11th Gen Intel Core support
  • LGA 1200 socket fits 10th and 11th Gen Intel processors
  • DDR4 memory runs up to 5000 MT/s when overclocked
  • ATX form factor fits standard desktop cases
  • SATA interface connects storage drives at 6 Gb/s

Socket and chipset

The MSI MAG B560 TORPEDO uses the Intel B560 chipset and an LGA 1200 socket. It accepts 10th and 11th generation Intel Core processors plus Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs. The board follows the standard ATX form factor for broad case compatibility.

Build integration

Four DDR4 slots support memory speeds up to 5000 MHz when overclocked. SATA 6 Gb/s ports provide storage connections for hard drives and SATA SSDs. The ATX layout leaves room for full-length graphics cards and multiple expansion cards in typical chassis.

Target builder

This board suits builders assembling a mainstream Intel system with 10th or 11th generation CPUs and DDR4 memory. It does not suit buyers who need a newer socket for 12th generation or later processors. It also does not suit compact builds that require a smaller form factor.

Questions about this item

Will the VRM cooling handle an 11th Gen Intel Core processor at full load for hours?

The board uses a B560 chipset with a heatsink array over the power phases, designed for sustained operation with 11th Gen CPUs in an ATX chassis with decent airflow.

How loud does the chipset fan get during an all-day compile or render?

The B560 chipset is passively cooled by a metal heatsink with no dedicated fan, so it adds no audible noise regardless of workload length.

Which DDR4 memory kit do I need to reach the rated 5000 speed?

You need a DDR4 kit rated for 5000 MT/s or higher with an XMP profile; the board will run it at that frequency once XMP is enabled in the BIOS.
