Abstract: 스카이레이크 기반의 컴퓨터를 새로 맞추려면 메인보드와 메모리 모두 새걸로 바꿔야 한다. 특히 이번 스카이레이크 프로세서는 통합 전압 레귤레이터(FIVR)가 제외되면서 메인보드의 품질이 곧 성능과 직결된다. 그래서 메인보드 제조사들은 각자의 최신 기술들을 자사 메인보드에 담아냄으로써 서로 치열한 경쟁을 벌이고 있다.MSI도 자사의 Z170 메인보드에 하이엔드 게이밍 유저를 위한 많은 기술들을 집약시켰다. 이번에 만나볼 MSI Z170A Gaming M5...
Abstract: 인텔의 6세대 코어 프로세서 코드명 스카이레이크가 출시되면서 메인보드 업계 또한 분주한 움직임을 보이고 있다. 이번 신제품 프로세서를 사용하기 위해서는 반드시 새로운 소켓을 탑재한 Z170 메인보드가 필요하기 때문에 소비자들은 CPU와 함께 메인보드와 메모리까지 플랫폼을 통째로 교체해야 한다.4세대 코어 프로세서인 하스웰 이후 사실상 2년여 만에 처음 등장하는 신제품이기에 대기 수요도 적지 않을 것으로 예상된다. 그렇기에 지난 2분기 유례없는 불경기로...

easy UEFI interface, performance, overclocking, power consumption, accessories, price/performance ratio
The Z170 gaming series reviews from MSI started with Z170A Gaming M5 motherboard. It left me with a very good impression.The red and black aspect is quite nice while the features like DDR4 Boost, Military Class 5 components and overclocking capabilities j...

MSI's Z170A Gaming M5 has lots of appealing characteristics. The board takes full advantage of the bounty of I/O built into the Z170 chipset. We're happy to see dual M.2 slots fed with quad PCIe Gen3 lanes alongside dual SATA Express ports. USB 3.1 conne...
With the launch of a new architecture the best part to me is getting to see what all of the motherboard manufactures have been working on. Typically they don't release a lot of boards in between launches so a new launch means new features and sometimes c...
Sleek design and styling, Metal-plated PCI-Express slots, Killer E2400 networking, USB 3.1 and dual 32 Gb/s M.2 slots, Cool gaming software and a free 1-year license for XSplit, Post code display also shows temperature, Easy to use BIOS and Command Cente
No clear CMOS button, Not power and rest buttons, Would have liked software to all be under a single suite
First off you will have no problem running a dual graphics card setup with this board. You have support for 2-way SLI and 3-way CrossFire. Also the main two PCI-Express slots are metal-plated. This not only makes them look awesome, but gives you better st...
MSI’s Gaming series of motherboards have seen their fair share of ups and downs but ever since the M5 was first revealed, we were excited by its potential. Could it actually hit that fine balance between pricing, gamer-centric features and overclocking ch...
