Intel LGA 1151 ATX motherboard

This refurbished MSI Z370 GAMING PRO CARBON uses the Intel Z370 chipset and accepts 9th and 8th generation Intel Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs. Four DDR4 slots support up to 64GB in dual-channel mode. Three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots and three PCIe 3.0 x1 slots give room for multi-GPU and add-in cards.

Builders wanting dual M.2 and six SATA ports

The board suits builds that need two M.2 Key M slots — one supporting lengths up to 22110 — plus six SATA 6Gb/s ports with RAID 0/1/5/10. It does not suit systems that require onboard Wi-Fi or support for older LGA 1151 processors.

Dual M.2 Key M slots with PCIe 3.0 x4 and SATA

Two M.2 slots accept PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe and SATA SSDs; the first slot takes 2242, 2260, 2280 and 22110 lengths while the second takes 2242, 2260 and 2280. This layout decides whether your storage plan fits the board.

Questions about this item

Does the MSI Z370 GAMING PRO CARBON come with mounting screws for the two M.2 slots or do I need to supply my own?

The motherboard includes the required M.2 standoffs and screws in the box; no separate mounting hardware is needed for either slot.

Should I choose DDR4 3200 or DDR4 3600 modules for this Z370 board to match the validated overclocked speeds?

Both speeds appear in the validated overclocked list; 3600 MHz modules will run at that frequency when XMP is enabled and a compatible CPU is installed.

What resolution can I actually get from the onboard HDMI port when using a 9th Gen Intel Core processor with integrated graphics?

The HDMI output supports up to 4096x2160 at 24 Hz, so 4K at 60 Hz is not possible over this port.
