Military Class 4 is the next step in high quality components. The Dark Choke and Solid CAP will make sure that your PC runs more stable under extreme gaming conditions.
Dark Choke uses the special core design and allows the Dark Choke to run at a lower temperature with higher capacity and better power efficiency and stability.
With their aluminum core design and Japanese made quality, Solid CAPs are made for high-end design motherboard. Not only do Solid CAPs could provide lower Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR), but also work firmly for over-10-year.
The core of Military Class 4 is based on the essentials which increase your stability in the worst conditions. The humidity protection and high temperature protection ensure your system surviving each environment, no matter how harsh. The new structure of the PCB limits EMI radiation.

4x Strength
Steel Armor has more solder points on the PCB for more strength and protects the PCI-Express signals against electromagnetic interference for a stutter-free gaming experience and higher GPU overclocking.
With traditional onboard audio the signal is distorted by electromagnetic signals from the rest of the PCB. Acting like a dedicated sound card by physically isolating the audio circuitry which is separated by a isolating path. Less interference gives you a more clear audio signal.
With the use of professional audio capacitors, specially designed for audio purposes, this motherboard delivers high fidelity crystal clear sound with exceptional acoustics and realism.
OC Genie is the MSI’s built-in software overclocking technology for motherboards. With this one-second overclocking option we're giving you even more performance. Just hit the button and your PC gets another adrenalin shot. Delivering up to 20% of free extra performance for the CPU, memory and iGPU.
