MSI X870 Gaming Plus WiFi – WiFi 7 & 5G LAN Motherboard

About the MSI X870 Gaming Plus WiFi Motherboard

The MSI X870 Gaming Plus WiFi sits in that sweet spot between budget B650 boards and expensive X870E flagships. You get premium connectivity—WiFi 7, 5G LAN, USB4 40Gbps—without paying for extreme overclocking features most people never use. It's built for Ryzen 9000 and 7000 series builds where you want your motherboard to last through multiple GPU and storage upgrades.

What This X870 Motherboard Does for You

Think of this board as future-proofing without the premium tax. That PCIe 5.0 GPU slot means when you upgrade to an RTX 5070 or 5080 down the line, you're not leaving performance on the table. The PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot handles next-gen SSDs that'll take advantage of DirectStorage in games. Three M.2 slots total means you can run multiple fast drives without touching SATA—great for content creators juggling project files and game libraries.

WiFi 7 isn't just a spec bump. We're talking wireless speeds that rival many ethernet connections, with better stability in crowded networks. The 5G LAN gives you faster wired networking than standard 2.5G boards. If you're transferring large files to a NAS or downloading games at full speed, you'll notice the difference.

Build Quality That Matters

MSI didn't skimp on the VRM setup here. Your Ryzen 9 9800X3D or 7950X won't thermal throttle under heavy workloads. The board stays cool even during extended gaming or rendering sessions. Four DDR5 DIMM slots support overclocking up to 8200+ MT/s if you're into tuning, but JEDEC speeds work fine too. It's an ATX board, so it fits standard cases without weird fitment issues.

Perfect For

• Gamers building with Ryzen 9000 series who want a reliable board that won't bottleneck future upgrades. AMD RYZEN
• Content creators who need multiple M.2 slots for fast storage without sacrificing SATA drives for archival.
• Enthusiasts upgrading from B650 who want WiFi 7 and better connectivity without spending X870E money.
• First-time AM5 builders who want a board that'll last through several CPU and GPU generations.

Frequently Asked Questions About the X870 Motherboard

What makes the MSI X870 Gaming Plus WiFi special compared to B650 boards?

The X870 chipset gives you better connectivity and more PCIe lanes. You get WiFi 7 built-in, 5G LAN instead of 2.5G, and USB4 40Gbps—features usually missing on B650. PCIe 5.0 support on both GPU and M.2 slots means you're ready for next-gen hardware. It's the step up for builders who want premium features without X870E pricing.

Does this work with the Ryzen 9 9800X3D?

Yes, the MSI X870 Gaming Plus WiFi fully supports all Ryzen 9000 series processors including the 9800X3D. The VRM handles the power delivery without issues. You might need a BIOS update if you're using an older production unit, but we can help with that before shipping if needed.

Who is this motherboard for?

It's built for mid-to-high-end PC builders who want flagship connectivity without overspending. Perfect for gamers using Ryzen 9000 or 7000 series who plan to upgrade GPUs and storage over time. Content creators benefit from the multiple M.2 slots and fast networking. If you want a board that lasts through multiple upgrade cycles, this fits.

What warranty comes with this motherboard?

You get a 2-year Singapore warranty backed by MSI service support. If anything goes wrong, you're dealing with local RMA in Singapore, not shipping overseas. We also provide fast WhatsApp support for any compatibility or setup questions. We're open 7 days a week to help.

How does it compare to the X870E chipset boards?

X870E boards cost SGD 700-900 and focus on extreme overclocking features most people don't use. This X870 board gives you the same WiFi 7, USB4, and PCIe 5.0 connectivity at SGD 579. You lose some extra PCIe lanes and OC tweaking options, but for gaming and content creation, the performance difference is minimal.

Is this in stock in Singapore?

Stock changes frequently, so WhatsApp us for current availability. We typically ship same-day if in stock. Home delivery available across Singapore. If it's out of stock, we can let you know when the next shipment arrives.

Why should I buy from Mansa Computers instead of other retailers?

We provide direct WhatsApp support for compatibility questions—critical for motherboard purchases where RAM and BIOS compatibility matter. Our 2-year local warranty means hassle-free RMA if needed. We're open 7 days a week, not just weekdays. Plus, we actually test compatibility instead of just reading spec sheets.
