Overview

  • MSI unveiled a black‑and‑gold MEG X870E Godlike X Edition at Gamescom, capped at 1,000 numbered units with a display stand and Black Lucky plush.
  • The launch accompanies an X870E MAX family that adds an OC Engine for independent BCLK control, a 64MB BIOS, upgraded VRMs, and next‑gen I/O.
  • MSI claims the OC Engine can deliver up to a 15% gaming uplift on Ryzen chips, a vendor assertion that awaits independent testing.
  • An associated overclocking run by Taiwanese overclocker TSAIK pushed a Ryzen 7 9700X to 7.304 GHz, according to the submission cited by outlets.
  • The flagship board retains extensive connectivity and extras, including a 24+2+1 VRM design, Dynamic Dashboard screen, and rear I/O with seven USB‑C ports, two of them USB4.
