Socket LGA 1151 Z270 ATX Board

This MSI Z270 GAMING PLUS motherboard fits LGA 1151 processors from the 6th and 7th generation Intel Core families. It uses the Intel Z270 chipset in an ATX layout. The board supports dual-channel DDR4 memory up to 64 GB and speeds of 3800 MHz when overclocked.

Builders staying on LGA 1151

It suits owners of compatible 6th or 7th generation Intel CPUs who need a replacement Z270 board with six SATA III ports and one M.2 slot. Builders starting a new system on a newer socket, or anyone needing more than two full-length PCIe 3.0 x16 slots, should choose a different platform.

64 GB DDR4 maximum capacity

The four memory slots accept up to 64 GB of DDR4 RAM in total. This ceiling determines whether the board can handle your planned workload or if a platform with higher memory support is required.

Questions about this item

What memory speeds does the Z270 chipset support on this board?

The Z270 chipset on this board supports dual-channel DDR4 at 2133, 2400, 2600, 2800, 3000, 3200, 3600 and 3800 MHz, with speeds above 2400 MHz running as overclocked profiles.

What expansion slots and physical space does this ATX motherboard require?

This ATX board fits standard ATX cases and provides two PCIe 3.0 x16 slots that operate at x16/x4, four PCIe 3.0 x1 slots, one M.2 interface and six SATA III ports.

How is the motherboard installed and which step is often missed?

Mount the board on standoffs matching the ATX hole pattern, attach the supplied I/O back panel before securing the board, connect the 24-pin and 8-pin power cables, then install the included CMOS battery — a step many builders forget.
