MSI H410M Pro, Intel H410 motherboard - socket 1200 [7C89-007R]

The chipset thus supports, for example, M.2 slots connected via PCIe for the particularly fast NVMe SSDs. Socket 1200 mainboards with H410 chipsets form a good basis, especially for budget gaming PCs and compact computers for the home office.

The features of the MSI H410M Pro at a glance:

1x PCIe (3.0) x16 (x16), 1x PCIe (3.0) x1
1x M.2 (1x PCIe 3.0 x4 / SATA) / 4x SATA 6G
A total of 4x USB 3.0 and 6x USB 2.0 (internal & external)
Supports max. 64 GB DDR4 RAM up to 2,933 MHz

The MSI H410M Pro in detail
The MSI H410M Pro Micro-ATX mainboard has a PCIe-x16 slot that is connected to the chipset with a full 16 lanes. The board also has a PCIe 3.0 x1 slot for plug-in and expansion cards.

The M.2 slot connected via four PCIe 3.0 lanes supports the NVMe protocol and, in combination with corresponding M.2 SSDs, enables a data transfer rate of just under 4 GB / s. This is about eight times faster than an SSD connected via SATA 6G! Additional drives such as SSDs, HDDs and optical drives can be connected via four SATA 3.0 ports. A maximum of 64 GB of RAM with a clock rate of up to 2,933 MHz can be accommodated in two DDR4 DIMM slots.

The MSI H410M Pro provides two USB 3.0 ports on the I / O panel. Additional peripheral devices can be connected via four USB 2.0 sockets. A DVI-D and VGA connection for image display via the processor's integrated graphics unit are also located on the I / O panel. The mainboard has three 3.5 mm jack outputs for outputting the on-board sound. The internal connections include two RGB headers, one TPM header, two fan connections, one USB 2.0 and one USB 3.0 header.
