The MSI MAG B660M Mortar WIFI DDR4 motherboard offers support for overclocking technologies, such as the MSI BIOS tool with the ability to adjust the processor and memory timings for higher operating speeds. Additionally, it provides multiple communication ports, such as USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-C and USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A, as well as multiple storage slots, such as M.2 and SATA, for flexible expansion of the system's storage capacity.
It is ideal for building gaming systems with smaller sizes, such as micro-ATX or mini-ITX, and is aimed at users seeking high performance and rich features.
Motherboard Cooling
With more processor cores, thermal design and power design are more important to ensure that the temperature remains lower. MSI's extended PWM heatsink and enhanced circuit design ensure that even high-spec Intel CPUs will operate at full speed with MSI motherboards.
M.2 Shield FROZR
The fastest SSDs in the world may start to reduce their performance when they heat up. Part of the motherboard's cooling design, the M.2 Shield FROZR is the next-generation thermal solution for avoiding this phenomenon, offering the best thermal protection to ensure that the SSD maintains maximum performance.
With the pre-installed IO shield, it makes the installation process easier and safer. The pending patent design protects the IO ports and also prevents damage from electrostatic discharges, making your motherboard a strong foundation for gaming.
EZ M.2 Clip
The innovative EZ M.2 clip from MSI helps you install an M.2 SSD quickly and effortlessly.
Gen 4 PCI-e and M.2
Using Intel 12th and 13th generation processors, MSI B660 motherboards feature the latest Lightning Gen 4 M.2 version, which is the fastest integrated storage solution on the market with transfer speeds of up to 64 Gb/s.
The MSI B660 motherboards support all the latest storage standards, allowing users to connect any high-speed storage device. The higher efficiency makes your work easier.
Intel Optane
Computer users can now enjoy the performance of an SSD on their hard drive by combining it with the new Intel Optane memory device. Intel Optane technology provides an unparalleled combination of high performance, low latency, high-quality services, and durability.
MSI Center
The brand new MSI Center combines a suite of MSI software utilities into a single central application. Take control of advanced motherboard features and unleash unlimited possibilities.
- Mystic Light
- True Color
- User Scenario
- Hardware Monitoring
- Profile Setting
- Fan Center
- System Diagnosis
The Mystic Light Extension header provides an intuitive way to control additional RGB strips and other RGB peripherals added to a system, without the need for a separate RGB controller.
2.5Gbps LAN
The 2.5Gbps LAN provides incredible data transfer speed faster than the regular Gigabit LAN. It is a premium solution for demanding users.
Wi-Fi 6
WIFI 6 adopts the latest OFDMA and bidirectional MU-MIMO technologies and can provide up to 4X network capacity and performance in high-density signal environments.
Compared to WIFI 5, which can only send data packets to one device at a time on each channel, WIFI 6 can combine the packet, separate it into different devices, and allow signals from different devices to be combined together. This new technology provides all devices in the same network environment with the same and harmonious bandwidth efficiently.
