MSI MEG X570 Unify review 4

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 12/22/2020 05:07 PM [ 33 comment(s) ]

In this review, we look at the MSI MEG X570 Unify. Priced at $280 MSI delivers an all dark X570 motherboard that has been loaded with features like 2.5 Gbit LAN and AX WIFI, and looks that make this board seem like Batman's toolbelt.

Where you get that info about 8pin powering PCI-e?
If it's from Actually Hardcore Overclocking then he already debunked it with a note for himself not to ever measure resistance with PSU connected (8PIN got connected with PCI-e power pins through PSU itself, not traces onboard.)

I personally don't like this board, it ugly, PCH cooler looks like cheaply made plastic, only 4 data, and stupid PCI-e lanes configuration, prefer 8x/8x/4x(gen3 from PCH)
Well the looks are subjective the heat sinks are awesome and work very well, 4 Data and 3 SSD on board are enough surely, never had a slowdown or issue with the SSDs, but each too their own

checked the manual and once again MSI would be my only choice they seem to be the only brand where the design engineer actually understand that bandwith sharing and the placement of M.2 and pcie slot matters

M.1 top slot the worst one above the superheated gpu backplate, the one you should never use : CPU bandwith and you don't want to use cpu bandwith for an M.2 anyway
M.2 mid slot a meh choice as it will get heat from an aircooled gpu too : PCH bandwith
M.3 bottom slot the coolest one especially if you have a modern/smarter case design (bottom fans and a separate compartment for the psu giving you a real bottom->top airflow) : PCH bandwith
PCIE 4.0 x1 slot above the bottom full pcie slot that you can never use because it's too low on the motherboard, it's the perfect place for a soundcard or other low bandwith cards
I use m1 slot on my z490 unify with its stock plate on a 970 evo plus and I didnt see it above 54c, I think. Looked good compared to other benchmark reviews ok temps, gpu temp or cpu temp wasnt affected more either.

Gpu still runs at full pcie 3.0 16x

Ironic the 2 clowns crying about a chipset fan are intel users with 6-10 year old hardware. Oh the IRONY.
