MSI MAG B850 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI AMD motherboard with Ryzen 7 9700X CPU combo

Combo for AM5 builders

This bundle pairs a MAG B850 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI board with a Ryzen 7 9700X processor. The CPU delivers 8 cores and 16 threads on Zen 5 architecture with a 5.5 GHz max boost and 40 MB cache. The board supports Ryzen 7000, 8000 and 9000 series chips on the AM5 socket. It targets gamers and creators who want a ready-matched platform.

EZ install extras change the build flow

EZ PCIe Release lets you unlock the graphics-card slot with one press. EZ M.2 Shield Frozr II removes the need for tools when fitting M.2 drives in 22110, 2280 or 2260 sizes. Wi-Fi 7 adds a 320 MHz channel for up to 5.8 Gbps throughput. The 5 Gbps LAN and Audio Boost 5 with Realtek ALC4080 complete the I/O set.

Straightforward install with one BIOS trade-off

The AM5 socket and tool-less M.2 shields keep assembly simple. Four DDR5 slots accept up to 256 GB at 8400 MT/s OC with Ryzen 9000 series. PCIe 5.0 x16 comes from the CPU. Note that using the chipset M.2 slot at Gen 4 x2 forces the third PCIe slot to x2 speed unless you disable that M.2 slot in BIOS.
