MSI X870 Gaming Plus WiFi – Future-Ready AM5 Motherboard

About the MSI X870 Gaming Plus WiFi

The MSI X870 is built for Ryzen 9000 series processors. This ATX motherboard hits the sweet spot between B650 budget boards and expensive X870E options. You get X870 features like better USB support and connectivity without overspending. It's designed for gamers and builders who want a reliable platform that won't need upgrading anytime soon.

What This MSI X870 Gaming Plus WiFi Does for You

This board future-proofs your build with WiFi7 speeds up to 5.8Gbps and 6GHz band support. The 5G LAN runs 2.5x faster than standard gigabit connections for lag-free online gaming. USB4 40Gbps Type-C handles fast external drives or even eGPUs if you need them later. Gen 5 expansion slot support on the primary GPU slot means RTX 50-series cards won't be bottlenecked. Three M.2 slots give you plenty of fast storage options, with the first slot supporting PCIe 5.0 SSDs.

The EZ Debug LEDs help troubleshoot any boot issues quickly. MSI's EZ Conn header simplifies front panel wiring during builds. Flash BIOS button lets you update firmware for new CPU compatibility without needing an older processor installed first.

Connectivity That Keeps Up

You get USB4 40Gbps, USB 20Gbps Type-C, and multiple USB 10Gbps ports on the rear panel. WiFi-7 means you can skip ethernet cables without sacrificing speed. The 5G LAN provides wired speeds that actually matter for large game downloads and updates. This connectivity package normally costs $100+ more on competing boards.
