Questions about MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI

Two pieces. See page 45 in the manual: https://download-2.msi.com/archive/mnu_exe/mb/MAGB650TOMAHAWKWIFI.pdf

Yes, you can use the WD Black SN770 SSD with the MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI motherboard. This motherboard supports M.2 connections, which are compatible with the WD Black SN770 SSD, which uses the M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 standard. Be sure to check your BIOS settings to ensure proper SSD recognition.

What do you mean by that?

Hi, the board can only reach 2.5GB without any upgrade. To achieve 10GB speed you would have to purchase a network card. Simply search for "10GB network card". The network card is installed using the PCI express slot (the slot just below the graphics card).

You can connect 4 fans directly to the mainboard. You can connect the Arctic P12 ARGB with an ARGB hub or directly to each other. This means you only need one connection for the lighting. LG

You can connect a total of seven fans to this mainboard: one CPU fan, one water cooling fan and six system fans.

The motherboard is compatible with M.2 SSDs. It has three M.2 ports, but these are probably designed for PCIe NVMe SSDs, as SATA M.2 SSDs may not be supported. An adapter may be required for SATA M.2 SSDs.

The compatibility of the NZXT Kraken 360 AIO with the MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI depends on the physical and electrical compatibility. Physically, the AIO should fit into the radiator slots of the case, which is usually the case as most ATX mainboards offer enough space. Electrically, the connections of the AIO must be compatible with the available fan connectors on the motherboard. Since the NZXT Kraken 360 AIO typically has a single connector, it should be able to be connected to one of the fan connectors on the motherboard. It is advisable to check the specific connection options of the motherboard to ensure that the AIO can be connected correctly.

The AMD Ryzen 5 8500G is not explicitly mentioned in the list of supported processors for the MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI. However, the board supports Ryzen 7000 and 8000 series processors, and the Ryzen 5 8500G belongs to the 8000 series. It may be necessary to perform a BIOS update to ensure that the processor runs without problems. It is advisable to consult the official MSI website for the latest BIOS updates.

The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X3D is not explicitly mentioned in the compatibility lists of the MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI. However, the board does support other Ryzen 7000 models, including the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, suggesting that it could potentially support the Ryzen 7 7700X3D as well, provided that the BIOS version is up-to-date. It would be advisable to consult the official MSI website or support to confirm exact compatibility.

Of course not.

Yes, it is. I also have this CPU installed, it runs great and is absolutely stable.

Hello MMe1990 If the fan units are installed at the bottom of the graphics card, there is no problem. There are also manufacturers who install the fan unit at the top, so you should be careful with the graphics card. I hope I have answered your question so far.

Thank you for your feedback, we will be happy to pass this on to the relevant department. Unfortunately, we do not receive this information in some cases, but it could certainly be recorded for many boards.

Probably the supplied antenna on the motherboard, but I only work with LAN

Basically, it does not matter which graphics card you use. The graphics card is connected to the motherboard via PCI-E. PCI-E is backwards compatible up to the first generation. The decisive factor is the number behind it. 1x/2x/4x/16x. This expresses the number of lines that are connected. Usually 16x for modern GPUs. A gaming motherboard, such as the MAG B650, has such a connection. Much more important is the interaction of the components and the question of what resolution and how many FPS you want to use the PC at in certain games. There are some good websites that can help you choose the right components. https://pcpartpicker.com/ But to your question, no, there are no technical problems that prevent you from connecting this graphics card to the motherboard.

Hello Fred_326 According to the manufacturer specification, the mainboard should be able to do this: 2x Addressable V2 RGB LED connector (JARGB_V2) 2x RGB LED connector(JRGB) The link to the specs from MSI: https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/MAG-B650-TOMAHAWK-WIFI/Specification FYI: JRGB = 12v RGB (normal RGB) with 4 pin JRAINBOW = 5v ARGB (addressable RGB) with 3 pin

Really happy to hear, that you are satisfied with the product :). If you want, you also can add a product review, to share your experience with other users.

Screws and 2x Wifi antenna were certainly included. Instructions for connections as well. Cables? You get them primarily from the purchase of the power supply unit.

I would start with the manufacturer's support. Sometimes you even get the material free of charge.

Yes. You could have just googled it. https://de.msi.com/Motherboard/MAG-B650-TOMAHAWK-WIFI

Hello, yes works with Zen4 CPUs. Regards
