MSI X870E Godlike motherboard drops at an eyewatering $1,099 — AM5 motherboard unleashes DDR5 9000+ RAM, five M.2 slots, 10 GbE, and Wi-Fi 7 alongside two USB 4.0 40 Gbps ports

MSI MEG X870E GODLIKE.

MSI's flagship and top-of-the-line MEG X870E Godlike motherboard is now available for purchase, and it doesn't come cheap—it is priced at $1,099 over at Newegg. Of course, this motherboard isn't for the faint of heart (and wallet) and requires you to shell out a pretty penny if you want the best there is—after all, it doesn't get any more premium—unless you want a Threadripper, that is.

Let's talk specs. The MSI MEG X870E Godlike uses the E-ATX (Extended ATX) form factor - measuring around 288 x 304.8mm. The board incorporates a 10-layer PCB with a heavy-duty 24+2+1 duet rail power setup rated at 110A - five more amps than its predecessor. The X870E Godlike features four DIMM slots rated for DDR5-8400+ speeds at 1 DPC (DIMM Per Channel), supporting up to 256GB of RAM. MSI touts speeds of over 9000MT/s - so you can complete mayhem with the overclocking.
