MSI PRO B860M-P WiFi 6E LGA 1851 mATX Motherboard

The MSI PRO B860M-P WIFI6E Motherboard is a Micro-ATX desktop board built around the Intel B860 chipset. Its LGA 1851 socket supports Intel Core Ultra Processors (Series 2), defining the available CPU upgrade path. Four dual-channel DDR5 UDIMM slots accommodate up to 256 GB of memory, with supported speeds reaching 8800 MHz using unbuffered, non-ECC modules. Two M.2 slots accept 2280 and 2260 devices over PCIe 5.0 and PCIe 4.0, while four SATA 6 Gb/s connectors support additional drives.

Integrated 2.5GbE, Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 provide wired and wireless networking without add-in adapters. Rear video connections comprise one HDMI 2.1 and two DisplayPort 1.4 outputs, alongside three USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A and two USB 2.0 Type-A ports. Internal connectivity includes two USB 3.2 Gen 1 headers and four USB 2.0 headers for case-mounted ports. Cooling connections consist of two system-fan headers, one combo-fan header and a separate CPU-fan connector. Board power uses 24-pin ATX and 8-pin EPS connectors, while front-panel audio and system-panel headers handle compatible case connections.
