Socket and chipset

The MSI Z370 PC PRO is an ATX motherboard built on the Intel Z370 chipset for LGA 1151 processors. It supports 8th Generation Intel Core, Pentium and Celeron CPUs. Dual-channel DDR4 memory runs at speeds up to 4000 MHz when overclocked with a maximum capacity of 64GB. The board provides a foundation for a mainstream desktop build.

Expansion and connectivity

Two PCIe 3.0 x16 slots operate in x16 or x4 mode alongside three PCIe 3.0 x1 slots and 31 PCI slots for legacy cards. Storage connects through two M.2 interfaces and six SATA III ports. Rear I/O includes one USB 3.1 Gen2 Type-C port, one USB 3.1 Gen2 Type-A port and an Intel I219-V Gigabit LAN connection. Realtek ALC887 audio delivers 7.1 channel output.

Compatibility checks

Verify that your processor is an 8th Generation Intel Core, Pentium or Celeron model with LGA 1151 packaging. Confirm the CPU cooler mounting holes match the LGA 1151 pattern. Ensure the power supply provides the required ATX and CPU power connectors for the Z370 chipset. Check that your chassis accommodates a standard ATX form factor motherboard.

Questions about this item

What 8th Gen Intel processor socket does this motherboard require?

The board uses the LGA 1151 socket, so a compatible 8th Gen Intel Core, Pentium or Celeron CPU is needed.

Will my existing DDR4-2400 memory run at its rated speed on this board?

Yes, DDR4-2400 is a supported JEDEC speed; the board also handles higher overclocked frequencies up to DDR4-4000.

How can I confirm the Realtek ALC887 audio is working after assembly?

Connect speakers to the rear panel, install the Realtek driver, then verify 7.1-channel output in Windows Sound settings.
