by

You already have to come to terms with the fact that you can’t wait for affordable boards in the near future, and it’s better to prepare 15-20 thousand rubles for a mid-level board for processors capable of overclocking, and if this is not necessary, then you can save money and take a cheaper board. Fortunately, devices based on the Intel B660 and H610 chipsets have already begun to appear. At MSI, usually the most affordable models belong to the MAG (MSI Arsenal Gaming) line.

Initially they seemed to exist solely to be installed into non-standard cases. Anyone who was around the internet back in the day will remember people having systems build in to their Millenium Falcon, or an old army ammo box, really the possibilities of squeezing a tiny system into a tiny case were almost limitless.

It features all of the most recent specifications that a motherboard can have and a whole host of additions that have you questioning if you’re even buying this for the motherboard and not the extras. The extras in question are threefold; the new and possibly revolutionary M-vision dashboard that can be used for quick motherboard setting changes even whilst in windows and can be used as quick access to launch default programs on your PC like web browsers and the calculator, I do question this though, how much faster can it really be than clicking on the icon with your mouse?
