Now the motherboard also comes with an 'Audio Boost' solution. Make no mistake though, the audio is arranged by a Realtek HD audio chip (RT ALC1150). On top of that you will install a software layer which opens up some extra  options. Once powered up a trace in the motherboard will light up, indicating a separated audio circuitry for audio.  

it offers more though, a built-in headphone amplifier allows you to use studio-grade headgear.

  • Studio level Integrated 600Ω Headphone amplifier
  • Gold-flashed audio jacks for pure audio signals
  • EMI shielded audio codec & amplifier
  • High quality Japanese audio capacitors
  • Illuminated Audio Isolation Line

Next to your standard buttons MSI also integrated OC Genie button. Simply pressed the OC Genie button on the motherboard and our AMD 7850K APU processor was overclocked to 4200 MHz instantly. We do wonder if there is anybody that actually uses the OC Genie button? It will however bring a notch of extra performance with just one click of the mouse button.

Powered on the backside of the motherboard will shine bright like a diamond. You can find LEDs underneath the motherboard. So once you have it installed in your PC, there's this HALO of light emanating from the motherboard. Very nice and very trendy these days as it's done by the majority of motherboard manufacturers.
