Socket LGA 1150 Micro ATX board

The MSI H87M-E35 is a Micro ATX motherboard built around the Intel H87 chipset for Socket LGA 1150 processors. It accepts Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron CPUs in a compact form factor suited to smaller chassis.

Dual-channel DDR3 up to 16 GB

Memory support is the key compatibility check: the board runs dual-channel DDR3 at 1600, 1333 or 1066 MHz and is hard-limited to 16 GB total across its two slots. Exceeding this capacity is not possible.

Six SATA III ports and six USB 3.0 ports

Storage and peripheral headroom are generous for the form factor with six SATA III connectors and six USB 3.0 ports split between rear panel and internal headers. The single PCIe x16 slot and two PCIe 2.0 x1 slots limit expansion to one graphics card and two add-in cards.

Questions about this item

What does the 16 GB maximum memory mean for a build using this board?

The board supports up to 16 GB of dual-channel DDR3 across its slots, so a typical build would use two 8 GB modules running at 1600, 1333 or 1066 MHz.

How fast are the six SATA III ports in practice?

Each SATA III port runs at up to 6 Gb/s, giving the full standard throughput for SSDs and hard drives connected to the six onboard connectors.

What clearance does the Micro ATX form factor need in a case?

The Micro ATX layout fits any case with Micro ATX or larger mounting holes and the standard I/O shield cut-out, using the supplied back panel.
