MSI Mag B560M MORTAR Motherboard

The MSI B560MMOTA is a micro ATX motherboard designed for builders who need 10th or 11th Generation Intel Core performance in a compact case while keeping plenty of speed and connectivity on tap. Sitting on the Intel B560 chipset, it accepts LGA1200 processors ranging from high end Core CPUs to budget friendly Pentium and Celeron chips, so you can shape the system around your exact workload.

Four DDR4 DIMM slots support up to 128 GB of memory and can reach 5066 MT/s when overclocked, giving gamers, content creators, and multitaskers the headroom they need. A PCIe 4.0 x16 slot is ready for modern graphics cards when paired with an 11th Generation CPU, ensuring the bandwidth to push high frame rates or accelerate creative applications.

The board carries two M.2 connectors for fast solid state storage. The primary slot links through PCIe 4.0 or SATA, perfect for a blazing NVMe boot drive, while the second uses PCIe 3.0 for additional SSD expansion. Conventional SATA ports remain available for larger capacity hard drives and archival storage.

Networking is handled by integrated 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, which keeps latency low during online matches and speeds up large file transfers on a wired network. A rear panel USB-C Gen2x2 port moves data at up to 20 Gbps, making quick work of backups to external drives. Audio comes courtesy of the Realtek ALC897 codec, delivering eight channel HD sound without the need for a separate card.

Whether you are building a small footprint gaming rig, a home media server, or an office workstation, this motherboard offers a balanced foundation that fits neatly into micro ATX cases yet still leaves room for a full size graphics card, ample memory, and multiple storage devices.
