MSI Z170M Mortar Motherboard Review

Thanks to the FUNKYKIT team, we will be taking a quick look at the MSI Z170M Mortar Motherboard. This will be a short review high-lighting the features of the motherboards, and will include photos and a short video with some benchmarks.

 

 

The MSI Z170M Mortar features the Intel Z170 chipset, and it’s one of only a few micro-ATX (or mATX) motherboards available on the market, which is aimed at the gaming enthusiasts. It can fully support the Intel Core i5-6600K/i7 -6700K unlocked processors (LGA 1151), as well as DDR4 memory upto DDR4-3600 (OC). It also comes packed with some great features including Game Boost (for easy overclocking), Audio Boost (high quality audio capacitors), Gaming LAN (optimized network management), 2 x PCIE 3.0 x16 slots (x16/x4) for 2-way Crossfire support, as well as a wide range of video outputs including VGA, DVI and HDMI. You get all of this for an amazingly low price, that’s just too good to be true. For this reason, we chose this motherboard for our Project Ice Stream 2 PC build.
