Socket and chipset

This MSI X99A SLI motherboard uses the Intel X99 chipset and an LGA 2011-v3 socket for new generation Intel Core i7 processors. The ATX form factor provides four full-length PCIe 3.0 x16 slots and two PCIe 2.0 x1 slots for expansion cards.

Compatibility checklist

Verify that your processor is an LGA 2011-v3 Core i7 with 40 PCIe lanes to enable the full multi-GPU slot bandwidth. Confirm your DDR4 modules match the listed speeds from 2133 up to 3333 MHz and that total capacity does not exceed 128 GB across four channels. Ensure your case accepts ATX boards and that your power supply has the required CPU and PCIe connectors.

Thermals noise and power

The Intel I218 Gigabit LAN and Realtek ALC892 7.1 audio run at low power during typical workloads. Storage traffic across ten SATA III ports plus one SATA Express and one M.2 interface stays within chipset thermal limits. USB 3.0 and 2.0 ports draw standard bus power, so system fan curves remain quiet under normal desktop use.

Questions about this item

What accessories come with the MSI X99A SLI motherboard and what must I buy separately?

The box contains the motherboard, a CMOS battery, one SATA cable and the rear I/O shield. CPU, DDR4 memory, graphics cards, storage drives and any additional cables are not included.

Which DDR4 speeds does the MSI X99A SLI support and what is the maximum capacity?

The board runs four-channel DDR4 at 2133 MHz natively and can reach 2200, 2400, 2600, 2666, 2750, 3000, 3110 or 3333 MHz when overclocked, up to a total of 128 GB.

How do the four PCIe 3.0 x16 slots operate with different GPU counts?

With one card the primary slot runs at x16; with two cards they run at x16/x16 or x16/x8 depending on the CPU; with three cards the layout is x16/x16/x8 or x8/x8/x8, again CPU-dependent.
