MSI MAG B850 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI Motherboard - Supports AMD Ryzen 9000/8000/7000, DDR5, Wi-Fi 7

MSI MAG B850 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI Motherboard delivers modern performance and connectivity for AMD Ryzen systems and supports Ryzen 7000, 8000 and 9000 series processors.

This ATX motherboard with the AMD B850 chipset brings DDR5 memory support and a wide range of expansion options to desktop builders, with four DIMM slots supporting up to 256 GB of DDR5 at speeds up to 8400 MHz (OC).

Storage and expansion are flexible with four M.2 slots (two PCIe 5.0-capable M.2 slots including a 22110 size), multiple PCIe x16 slots across Gen3/Gen4/Gen5, and up to eight total drive bays when combining M.2 and SATA devices. RAID 0/1/10 is supported for those who need redundancy or higher throughput.

Connectivity is a strong point: built-in Wi‑Fi 7 (802.11be) and Bluetooth 5.4 provide future-ready wireless performance, while a 5 Gigabit Ethernet RJ‑45 port handles wired networks. Rear I/O includes multiple USB ports—USB 2.0, USB 3.2 Gen1 and Gen2 Type‑A, plus three USB 3.2 Gen2 Type‑C ports—and an HDMI 2.1 output.

Thermal and system control is designed for serious builds, offering six CPU fan headers, a dedicated water pump header, three RGB LED pin headers, and comprehensive BIOS and firmware tuning for Ryzen on Socket AM5.

The onboard Realtek ALC4080 audio codec delivers 7.1-channel output for immersive sound, and the white color scheme makes the motherboard a stylish center for custom builds. It supports Windows 11 x64 and is sized at standard ATX (243.8 x 304.8 mm).

Ideal use cases include high-performance gaming rigs using Ryzen 7000–9000 CPUs, content-creation workstations that need fast NVMe storage and PCIe 5.0 expansion, and future-proofed home or office PCs that demand cutting-edge wireless and wired networking.
