Three photos, well one photo with three Series 170 motherboards from MSI just appeared on the web. The motherboards fall in the Gaming M range of products and have DDR4 memory, the lineup is based on a Z170A Gaming M5, the Z170A Gaming M7, and the Z170A Gaming M9 ACK. Truth be told, they look gorgeous.

The guys ate TPU noticed this photo slash screenshot.

The Z170A Gaming M5 offers up-to two high-end graphics cards to be seated and has a 10-phase CPU VRM, ten SATA ports (two SATA-Express 16 Gb/s), two M.2 slots (both 32 Gb/s), and AudioBoost III audio, with Killer E2205 GbE.
The Z170A Gaming M7 comes with a 14-phase CPU VRM, a "Game Boost" rotary button that steps up CPU and memory clocks in 11 preset steps, and improved on-board audio.
The Z170A Gaming M9 ACK comes with a back-plate ala SaberTooth and has liquid-cooling prepped for the VRM heatsink as well as a Killer ACK WLAN.

These motherboards all have USB 3.1 with both type-A and type-C ports. Have a peek, courtesy of the screenshot photos go to TPU. Check the thumbnail.

lot of entry level have the "OC Genie buttons" in bios, as the B85 and H version... it work the same, just painfull to enter in bios each time.

but it's less expensive.

btw i love the water cooling plug on high end motherboard these day :pc1:
