MSI Z370 PC PRO Intel ATX Motherboard

The MSI Z370 PC PRO is an ATX motherboard built around Intel's Z370 chipset, targeting users who want a reliable foundation for 8th Generation Intel Core, Pentium, or Celeron processors. It occupies the PRO Series tier in MSI's lineup, which prioritizes stability and essential features over gaming aesthetics. The board includes twin Turbo M.2 slots capable of 32 Gb/s transfer speeds with Intel Optane Memory support, DDR4 memory slots rated for speeds up to 4000+ MHz with overclocking, and Steel Armor reinforced PCI-E expansion slots that help prevent heavy graphics cards from damaging the slot over time.

Connectivity is well covered with USB 3.1, Gigabit LAN, and onboard DVI and HDMI outputs for integrated graphics use. The Z370 PC PRO supports AMD 2-Way CrossFire for multi-GPU setups, though NVIDIA SLI is not available on this board. MSI's Double ESD Protection adds a second grounding layer to the motherboard mounting holes, providing added resistance to electrostatic damage. While the LGA 1151 (300 series) platform is no longer current, the Z370 PC PRO remains a practical option for builders working with 8th Gen Intel hardware who need a dependable board with modern storage and connectivity options.
