Build Without Limits. The X870E CARBON Is Your Foundation.
The MSI MPG X870E CARBON is the flagship AM5 ATX motherboard built for gamers, builders, and enthusiasts who refuse to compromise. PCIe 5.0 bandwidth, Wi-Fi 7 wireless, USB 4.0 connectivity, quad M.2 slots, and a premium thermal design — this is the board you build a dream rig around. Whether you’re pushing Ryzen 9 to its limits or future-proofing your next build, the X870E CARBON is the foundation that holds it all together.
Premium Thermal Design
Heavy plated MOSFET heatsink with integrated heat-pipe and high-quality 7W/mK MOSFET thermal pads keep your VRMs cool under sustained heavy loads. Onboard M.2 Shield Frozr thermal armor protects your NVMe drives and dissipates heat for consistent peak SSD performance.
Rear I/O — Every Port You Need
USB-C 40G (USB 4.0), 6x USB 10G, USB-C 10G, HDMI, 2.5G LAN, 5G LAN, Wi-Fi 7 antenna ports, S/PDIF optical out, audio jacks, plus dedicated Flash BIOS, Clear CMOS, and Smart buttons for enthusiast-level control right from the I/O panel.
What’s in the Box
Everything you need to get building right out of the box: EZ Wi-Fi Antenna, EZ M.2 Clip II + Remover, 2x SATA cables, ARGB extension cable, 1-to-2 RGB extension cable, 1-to-3 EZ Conn-Cable V2, EZ Front panel cable, USB drive, cable sticker sheet, and quick installation guide.
Built for the Ultimate RGB Gaming Rig
The X870E CARBON looks as good as it performs. Mystic Light RGB syncs across your entire build — fans, RAM, GPU, and cooler — for a cohesive, stunning aesthetic. The iconic MSI dragon logo and CARBON branding glow in your choice of colors.
EZ PCIe Release & EZ M.2 Shield Frozr II
A simple press of a button effortlessly locks or unlocks the PCIe slot for easy GPU installation and removal. The new tool-less EZ M.2 Shield Frozr II makes installing and removing your M.2 SSD and thermal shield faster than ever — no screws, no hassle.
Ready to Install in Any Build
Standard ATX form factor fits any full-tower or mid-tower case. The X870E CARBON’s clean layout makes cable management straightforward, and its robust power delivery handles even the most demanding Ryzen processors with ease.
Lightning Gen 5 — PCIe 5.0 + DDR5 + Quad M.2
PCIe 5.0 delivers up to 128GB/s bandwidth. DDR5 with MSI Memory Boost pushes memory performance to new heights. Four M.2 slots with M.2 Shield Frozr thermal protection give you maximum NVMe storage flexibility.
