MSI PRO B550M-P WIFI6E AM4 mATX Motherboard

Power your workflow by including the MSI PRO B550M-P WIFI6E AM4 mATX Motherboard in your computer build. Supporting AMD 5000, 3000, and 4000 G series processors with the AM4 socket, this entry level mATX motherboard can be outfitted to smoothly handle a variety of applications.

Designed to help simplify builds, the PRO B550M-P WIFI6E makes it easy to install M.2 PCIe 4.0 and PCIe 3.0 SSDs to store your applications and important files. There are also four SATA III connectors available. The motherboard has four DDR4 DIMM slots that support up to 128GB, enabling it to reach up to 4400 MT/s overclocked speeds. With a PCIe 4.0 x16 slot and two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots, you can install powerful graphics cards and other compatible expansions.

The rear panel features four USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 ports that can transfer up to 5 Gb/s with compatible devices. There are also two USB-A 2.0 ports available for peripherals such as a mouse and keyboard. Built-in Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) support and a Gigabit Ethernet port provide you with connections to compatible network devices for smooth video streaming and low-latency online games. Windows 10 or 11 64-bit is required to take advantage of all the motherboard's features.

Ultra Performance
Power Solution
Core Boost technology combines MSI's layout and optimized power design, which allows for faster and undistorted current delivery to the CPU.
Protection
Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS)
Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) are safety devices used to protect against excessive voltage. All MSI motherboards are equipped with TVS. When the voltage abnormally rises, the TVS switches from a high-resistance state to a low-resistance state, diverting the excessive voltage to ground. This helps prevent circuit damage caused by high voltage.
Overcurrent Protection
Embedded Overcurrent Protection (OCP) ensures that crucial components such as the USB ports, DDR memory, PWM IC, and CPU are shielded from excessive current. This reduces the risk of damage or malfunction due to power surges.
Grounding Structure
MSI's grounded structure design suppresses the electromagnetic interference (EMI) generated by the power phases and helps to efficiently conduct heat to the copper plane.
FROZR Design
FROZR Guard
The enhanced thermal design maintains optimal performance during extensive workloads.
FROZR Sync
Connect and synchronize MSI coolers and cases with strategically positioned pin-header locations including a dedicated pump-fan header.
FROZR Control
The Cooling Wizard serves as a comprehensive solution for managing fan settings. It ensures superior cooling performance and noise reduction for your gaming PC, offering compatibility with PWM/DC fans and pumps, customizable options, and intuitive temperature monitoring for optimal operation with one click.
EZ DIY
Steel Armor
Steel Armor slots are secured to the motherboard with extra solder points to support heavy graphics cards.
EZ Debug LED
Onboard LEDs indicate the source of problems so you know exactly where to look to get up and running again.
AI LAN Manager
Optimize your network performance while minimizing latency for a seamless online experience.
Experience
Audio Boost
The integrated audio system features the Realtek ALC897 codec and immerses you in crystal clear sound using an isolated audio signal.
Mystic Light
Customize the RGB lighting with a variety of effects and sync them with Mystic Light–compatible keyboards, mice, monitors, and other peripherals.
MSI Center
MSI Center unifies a suite of MSI software utilities into a single centralized application. Take control of advanced motherboard features.

Power up your computing experience with the AMD Ryzen 5 5500 3.6 GHz Six-Core AM4 Processor, which features six cores and 12 threads to help quickly load and multitask demanding applications. Designed for socket AM4 motherboards using the powerful Zen 3 architecture, the 7nm 5th generation Ryzen processor offers significantly improved performance compared to its predecessor. With a base clock speed of 3.6 GHz and a max boost clock speed of 4.2 GHz in addition to 16MB of L3 Cache, the Ryzen 5 5500 is built to deliver the power needed to smoothly handle tasks ranging from content creation to immersive gaming experiences. You can boost performance further by overclocking this unlocked processor. Other features include support for PCIe Gen 3 technology and 3200 MHz DDR4 RAM with compatible motherboards. This processor has a 65W TDP (Thermal Design Power) and includes a Wraith Stealth cooling solution. Please note that it does not have an integrated GPU, so a dedicated graphics card is required.

Precision Boost 2
AMD Ryzen processors monitor the system's energy consumption, temperatures, and other factors to automatically raise clock speeds, allowing applications to perform faster.
Precision Boost Overdrive
Precision Boost Overdrive technology takes advantage of your compatible motherboard's design to boost clock speeds higher and for longer periods of time. It also allows you overclock the processor at the touch of a button.
AMD StoreMI Technology
AMD StoreMI technology helps to improve load times and overall system performance by combining solid-state drives and mechanical hard drives into a single hybrid storage drive. Frequently used files and programs are cached onto the fast SSD while other files are stored on the high-capacity HDD.
