B560 Chipset Micro ATX Board

This MSI B560M-A PRO motherboard uses the Intel B560 chipset on a Micro ATX form factor. It accepts 10th and 11th Gen Intel Core processors plus Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs in the LGA 1200 socket. The board targets mainstream desktop builds that need a compact layout with current connectivity.

Check Socket And Memory Limits

Verify your processor is an LGA 1200 model from the supported 10th or 11th Gen families. The board provides four DDR4 slots with a maximum capacity of 64 GB and supports overclocked speeds up to 5200. Ensure your power supply includes the required CPU and main board connectors for this platform.

Sustained Load Behaviour

The VRM design and extended heatsink aim to maintain stable power delivery during prolonged workloads. The Realtek 8125B 2.5 Gbps LAN controller handles continuous network traffic without thermal throttling. Audio output via the ALC897 codec remains consistent across long sessions at 7.1 channel quality.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the MSI B560M-A PRO motherboard?

The package includes the motherboard, a CMOS battery, one SATA cable and a chassis I/O back panel.

Should I pick DDR4 5200 (OC) or a lower speed such as DDR4 3600 for this board?

DDR4 3600 runs natively with 11th Gen Intel Core processors, while 5200 (OC) requires overclocking and compatible modules.

What does the 2.5 Gbps LAN figure mean for everyday networking?

The Realtek 8125B controller provides up to 2.5 Gbps wired throughput, so large file transfers are faster than standard 1 Gbps LAN when the rest of the network supports it.
