MSI B250M Pro-VDH LGA1151 mATX Motherboard
Overview
Description
The MSI B250M Pro-VDH LGA1151 mATX Motherboard lets you build a compact Windows system that is designed for home or office environments by coming equipped with an Intel B250 chipset and an LGA1151 socket. This combination of technologies enables the motherboard to become compatible with Intel's 7th-generation processors while remaining suitable with Intel 6th-generation CPUs. Regardless of a micro-ATX form factor, it still comes with four DIMM slots that can hold up to 64GB of DDR4 memory chips. Additionally, six SATA-based 2.5"/3.5" drives as well as an ultra-fast SSD with an M.2 form factor can be connected to this motherboard.
MSI has outfitted the B250M Pro-VDH with HDMI, DVI-D, and VGA ports to deliver detailed visuals using integrated Intel graphics. For editing videos and creating 3D designs, you can instal an optional dedicated graphics card to its PCIe 3.0 x16 slot. To complete the multimedia experience, a Realtek ALC887 audio codec chipset is on board for immersing you in 7.1-channel sounds through three audio jacks.
Other notable connections include four USB 3.0 and two USB 2.0 ports, letting the desktop access printers, scanners, and external storage drives. Moreover, one of the four USB 3.0 ports features a reversible USB Type-C design that enables you to connect your USB-C cable the first try. Accessing the network can be accomplished utilising an onboard Gigabit Ethernet port. There are also two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots and multiple internal USB headers to enhance the system's capabilities.
