MSI MEG X570 Godlike review 5

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 07/15/2019 02:25 PM [ 26 comment(s) ]

MSI offers something incredibly extreme with this X570 motherboard, meet the MSI MEG X570 Godlike. We check out this piece of hardware loaded with features, in combination with a Ryzen 7 3700X processor, AMD prepped the 570 chipset, that offers a more fine-tuned experience for your Ryzen Generation 3 processor. The new MEG, however, is taking things to an entirely new level. Including PCIe Gen 4.0 and AX Wifi and 10 Gbps ethernet.

"you are better off with these processors at default, as one or two cores can Turbo higher, which is far more beneficial in games opposed to having all cores at ~4400 MHz" Can the 3700X actually get to 4.5Ghz on single core? I dont think I have seen that it gets past 4.4ghz. Can anyone confirm this?

4.4 for sure, but on liquid it should be capable of hitting 4.5 XFR wise. Then again, it's a proc advertised at 4.4 GHz. I'll check it out deeper in my next mobo review with a single thread run.

Thanks, nice review. Definitely overkill for me, lol. I think for x570 boards, people should look at features that matter to them more than OC potential or overkill phases/VRMs. Since OC'ing effort does not seem to be worth the end result. Have seen some decently priced boards at the $200 price point that are feature rich and probably better suited for 3700x. This board seems it will be a better match for 3900x/3950x users. Have a feeling this will end up as Hilberts reference board. :D
