LGA 1151 Micro-ATX Board

The MSI B365M WIND is a Micro-ATX motherboard built on the Intel B365 chipset for LGA 1151 processors. It supports 8th and 9th generation Intel Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs. Dual-channel DDR4 memory runs at 2666, 2400 or 2133 MHz up to 32 GB total capacity. The board measures 23.6 by 20.0 cm and includes a single PCIe 3.0 x16 slot plus two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots.

8th and 9th Gen Intel Builders

This board suits builders upgrading or replacing an LGA 1151 system that uses a 365-series chipset. It provides six SATA III ports, Realtek ALC887 7.1 channel audio and a Realtek 8111H Gigabit LAN controller. USB connectivity includes six USB 3.1 Gen1 ports and six USB 2.0 ports split between rear and internal headers. Users needing newer CPU generations, larger memory capacities or different form factors should select another platform.

32 GB DDR4 Limit

The maximum supported memory is 32 GB across two DDR4 slots. This ceiling determines whether the board fits a planned workload or if a platform with higher capacity is required. Verify the CPU generation matches the LGA 1151 socket and B365 chipset before purchase.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 32 GB DDR4 option or the 64 GB DDR4 option for this board?

The board supports a maximum of 32 GB of DDR4 memory, so the 32 GB capacity is the correct choice.

What does the DDR4 2666 MHz rating mean once the board is installed?

Memory modules rated at 2666 MHz will run at that speed in dual-channel mode, provided the processor also supports 2666 MHz.

How does the PCIe 3.0 x16 slot limit graphics card performance?

The single PCIe 3.0 x16 slot from the CPU provides full x16 bandwidth for a graphics card, with no chipset bottleneck.
