Z370 Chipset ATX Board
The MSI Z370 OC GAMING is an ATX motherboard built on the Intel Z370 chipset for LGA 1151 processors. It supports 8th Generation Intel Core, Pentium and Celeron CPUs. The board targets enthusiasts who want overclocking headroom and multi-GPU capability in a standard form factor.
64GB DDR4 Overclock Range
Four memory slots accept dual-channel DDR4 up to a maximum of 64GB. Supported speeds span from 2133 MHz through 2400, 2667, 2800, 3000, 3200, 3300, 3333, 3400, 3466, 3600, 3733, 3866 to 4000 MHz when overclocked. Headroom ends at the 64GB capacity limit and the highest validated frequency.
Expansion And Connectivity Layout
One full-length PCIe 3.0 x16 slot runs at x16 and a second at x4, joined by four PCIe 3.0 x1 slots for add-in cards. Storage uses one M.2 interface and six SATA III ports with RAID support. Rear I/O provides four USB 3.1 Gen1 Type-A ports and two USB 2.0 Type-A ports, while internal headers add four more USB 3.1 Gen1 and four USB 2.0 connections. Audio relies on the Realtek ALC892 codec for 7.1 channel output and networking uses an Intel RTL8111H Gigabit LAN controller.
