MSI produces its products under four branded series: Pro, MAG, MPG and MEG. The latter is the company’s flagship. Although some MEG series products, such as power supplies, are offered at relatively affordable prices, monitors and motherboards in this series have always had exorbitant price tags, often exceeding $1000.

What makes the X870E MEG GODLIKE stand out? Literally everyone. The company has equipped the new product with its most advanced developments. One of the distinctive features of the board is the 3.99-inch LCD screen built into the I/O connector panel housing. It displays various useful information about the system and errors. It can display custom images and even has a built-in music player interface.

The board offers five M.2 slots for NVMe drives (two PCIe 5.0 and three PCIe 4.0), and also comes with a special XPANDER-Z SLIDER GEN5 expansion card, which offers two additional M.2 slots for SSDs. MSI X870E MEG GODLIKE is equipped with a special mechanism for quickly installing/removing a video card from the top PCIe x16 slot, magnetic heatsinks for NVMe drives, as well as a mechanism for simplified connection of Wi-Fi antennas.

The board supports Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetoth 5.4, and is also equipped with 10 Gbit and 5 Gbit LAN network connectors. The manufacturer has equipped the new device with a pair of USB4 connectors (40 Gbps). In total, the board received 25 different USB ports. The flagship Realtek ALC4082 codec, as well as the ES9280AQ DAC and amplifier, are responsible for audio processing.


For the production of X870E MEG GODLIKE, 10-layer textolite is used. The board is based on a powerful 27-phase VRM power subsystem with a 24+2+1 phase circuit, where each phase is designed for a current of 110 A.

The new product claims to support AMD Ryzen 9000, Ryzen 8000 and Ryzen 7000 processors, as well as DDR5-8400+ RAM through overclocking.
