Combo for AM5 builds

This bundle pairs an MSI MAG X870E GAMING PLUS MAX WIFI motherboard with an AMD Ryzen 9 9900X processor. The CPU delivers 12 cores and 24 processing threads for heavy multitasking and content creation. The X870E chipset unlocks PCIe 5.0 connectivity for graphics and storage. The combination suits enthusiasts building a high-performance desktop on the AM5 platform.

Tool-free installation and 5G LAN

A 64 MB BIOS ROM provides headroom for future CPU compatibility. EZ PCIe Release lets you remove a graphics card with a single button press. EZ M.2 Shield Frozr II secures up to three drives in 2280 or 2260 form factors without tools. Extended PWM heatsinks keep power delivery stable. Onboard 5G LAN and Wi-Fi 7 with a 320 MHz channel enable 5.8 Gbps peak wireless throughput.

Check CPU cooler clearance and power

Verify that your chassis can accommodate the motherboard ATX footprint and chosen CPU cooler height. Ensure the power supply includes an 8-pin EPS connector for the 9900X and sufficient PCIe connectors for your graphics card. Confirm that DDR5 modules match the board's 256 GB maximum and dual-channel layout. Update the BIOS if you plan to use Ryzen 9000 series processors beyond the 9900X.

Questions about this item

Will the Ryzen 9 9900X run at full speed with the board’s power delivery?

The extended PWM heatsink and enhanced circuit design are built so high-end processors run at full speed, and the OC Engine clock generator releases the maximum power of the CPU.

Can I install a PCIe 5.0 graphics card and a PCIe 5.0 M.2 SSD at the same time?

Yes, the primary PCIe 5.0 x16 slot and the CPU-sourced M.2_1 connector both operate at Gen 5.0 bandwidth simultaneously.

Is any tool needed to fit an M.2 drive under the heatsink?

The EZ M.2 Shield Frozr II uses a tool-less latch, so the SSD and shield can be installed or removed without a screwdriver.
