MSI is one of the many gaming brands that’s seen to be making reliable electronics, focusing mostly on computers and gaming peripherals. Extending this catalog, the company announced a new power supply unit (PSU) – MSI MEG Ai1300P that can supply power to your PC upto 1300W! It’s an 80 Plus Platinum power supply unit that comes with a PCIe 5.0 slot to support the new ATX 3.0 standard and includes a dedicated 600W connector to power the GPU alone. Further, there’s a new MSI MEG X670E ACE motherboard – that’s accurately designed for AMD’s newly-revealed Ryzen 7000 CPUs. This motherboard is based on an AM5 socket with full PCIe 5.0 support for both storage and graphics cards. Although, only one of the four M.2 slots supports PCIe 5.0.
