FRONTPAGE MSI Z170A SLI Plus Motherboard Review

[Overclockers.com]

Today we will have a chance to look at yet another board in MSI's seemingly already full product stack for Z170 based motherboards. We reviewed their monster overclocking and gaming board (Z170A XPower) and upper mid-range gaming board (Z170A Gaming 7) in the past, so now we get to check out something a bit lower on the cost totem pole. The offering we have today is the MSI Z170A SLI Plus. This board, while it should game and overclock well, is pointed to a more specific market: those which use multiple GPUs. It is geared this way because of the spacing between the main PCIe slots (triple slot spacing). So one can use two of your choice cards, be it AMD or NVIDIA based, and still have some room between the cards for better cooling, particularly for the top card. Let's see what the board has to offer, shall we?

Nice review, sweet board, right price. I'm a fan of the MSI UEFI BIOS as well. Thanks Joe.

Tho I'm not crazy about MSI, I like the clean look of the board. Nice write-up!
