Together with Intel's 7th generation processors Kaby Lake, Intel introduced an entirely new Z270 chipset. And this is the brain of the Z270M MORTAR motherboard. This game model of the prestigious MSI Micro ATX manufacturer is designed for the most demanding users. With its capabilities, it is the ideal choice for building up extremely powerful gaming computers that can be used to play the latest games, but also to work with demanding multimedia content.
The MSI Z270M MORTAR is equipped with the LGA 1151 socket for the latest 14nm Kaby Lake processors, plus four slots for DDR4 memory modules well shielded against electromagnetic noise. They operate at the base frequency of 2400 MHz, but at the maximum load they reach 3800 MHz. Plug in state-of-the-art graphics cards into the PCI Express 3.0 slots in CrossFireX mode. You will enjoy your favourite games in the last pixel. In addition, thanks to the solid steel frame and the increased number of solder joints, the slot itself is extremely robust. You do not have to worry about losing the handles of even the toughest graphics cards when moving your PC to a LAN party.
Overclocking is generally very easy. It's helped by both the sophisticated design of the entire PCB and the wonderfully crafted Click BIOS 5, dedicated clocking tools and drivers, including the Game Boost button to instantly boost performance. Because of the extreme system load, all potentially heat-stressed components are cooled by effective passive coolers. This board will simply allow you to go to the edge of the overclocking, without worry as you can reset the original settings if you need to.
The existing SATA III ports are great for connecting the latest generation SSD. However, if you are looking for higher speeds, you can use the M.2 interface at speeds of up to 32 Gbps. Even external drives are not left behind, thanks to the presence of the second-generation USB 3.1, boasting up to 20x faster than the previous version, including a modern USB Type C. To make your gaming experience as smooth as possible, the MSI Z270M MORTAR is equipped with a gaming network card. Thanks to this, gaming applications will always be preferred when using network communication, minimizing latency. With Gaming LAN Manager, you can customize prioritization according to your own needs.
