MSI electrified CES 2026 with the debut of the long-awaited MEG X870E Unify-X Max motherboard—set to outshine the best motherboards on the market. Bursting with overclocking-focused features, the legendary Unify series finally storms onto AMD’s AM5 platform, after a four-year hiatus.
On the AM4 platform, MSI made waves by first releasing the budget-friendly MEG B550 Unify and B550 Unify-X, later stepping up with the premium MEG X570 Unify and X570S Unify-X Max. Now, with AM5, MSI is making an audacious leap straight to the X870E chipset—no whispers yet of more affordable models on the horizon. The hotly anticipated MEG X870E Unify-X Max is the fifth AMD chapter in the storied Unify saga.
