Combo scope

This bundle pairs an MSI X870E GAMING PLUS WIFI motherboard with an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor. The board uses the AM5 socket and AMD X870E chipset, supporting Ryzen 9000, 8000 and 7000 series CPUs. The included 8-core, 16-thread chip runs at up to 5.2 GHz max boost and provides 96 MB of L3 cache for gaming workloads.

Installation notes

The CPU drops into the AM5 socket with a standard lever action; no separate bracket is needed. Four DDR5 UDIMM slots accept up to 256 GB total, running at JEDEC 4800-5600 MT/s or overclocked to 8200 MT/s with 1DPC 1R modules. Three M.2 slots (2280/2260) are keyed for PCIe 5.0 x4, PCIe 4.0 x4 and PCIe 4.0 x4 respectively; the primary slot includes an M.2 Shield Frozr heatsink that must be removed before drive insertion.

Pre-order checklist

Verify your power supply has an 8-pin EPS connector plus a 24-pin ATX connector for the board. Confirm the chassis fits an ATX motherboard and clears the rear I/O shield. Ensure your memory kit is on the board’s QVL for the desired DDR5 speed tier. Check that your GPU fits the PCIe 5.0 x16 primary slot and that the case provides airflow for the VRM heatsinks.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the Ryzen 7 9800X3D is running at its 5.2 GHz max boost after assembly?

Enter the BIOS or use a monitoring tool in Windows to verify the CPU hits 5.2 GHz under single-thread load; the 8-core, 16-thread Zen 5 chip with 96 MB L3 cache should reach that frequency when thermal and power limits allow.

Which components are included in the combo and what must I purchase separately?

The box contains the X870E GAMING PLUS WIFI motherboard and the Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor; you still need DDR5 memory (up to 256 GB across four slots), a CPU cooler, graphics card, storage drives, power supply and case.

Which memory speed tier should I choose for the X870E board with this CPU?

For the Ryzen 9000 series the board supports DDR5 up to 8200 MT/s (OC) with one DIMM per channel, 6400 MT/s with two ranks per channel, and 5600 MT/s JEDEC; pick a kit that matches your desired overclocking headroom and slot population.
