MSI A520M PRO Gaming Intel motherboard

This Micro-ATX board uses the AMD AM4 socket and supports DDR4 memory up to 4600 MHz when overclocked. It includes dual M.2 slots and HDMI plus DisplayPort outputs for integrated graphics.

Builders needing dual NVMe slots

This board suits users who want two NVMe drives and enhanced onboard sound without a full-size ATX chassis. Buyers who require more than two M.2 connectors or additional rear-panel ports should look elsewhere.

DDR4 4600 MHz overclocked memory support

The rated 4600 MHz OC ceiling determines whether your memory kit will run at its advertised speed on this platform. Match your modules to this figure to avoid stability issues.

Questions about this item

How much heat and noise does the board add when the Turbo M.2 slot runs an NVMe drive all day?

The Turbo M.2 slot runs at PCI-E Gen3 x4 and has no active cooling, so it adds negligible heat and zero noise during continuous NVMe workloads.

Which other components must already be in the build for the Core Boost power design to function?

A compatible AMD AM4 processor and DDR4 memory modules are required for the Core Boost digital power design to deliver power to the CPU cores.

Will the HDMI and DisplayPort outputs work with an older graphics card installed in the primary PCIe slot?

The HDMI and DisplayPort ports are driven by the processor's integrated graphics; they remain inactive when a discrete graphics card occupies the primary PCIe slot.
