After taking the motherboard out of the box, we get our first look at the MSI Creator TRX40 Motherboard with its EATX 12” x 10.9” form factor. There are large M.2 NVMe heat sinks span the motherboard right side and bottom, that contribute to the overall look of the platform.

It is time to review the next TREX in line, the MSI Creator TRX40. This Threadripper 3000 motherboard is ready for anything from 24 to 64 cores really. It has a beefy 16-phase VRM, you may mount up-to six M.2 SSDs with the help of an add-in card, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, AX wifi. The list goes on and on.

AMD leveraged GlobalFoundries 14nm to build the TRX40 chipset, which in a maximum I/O configuration, offers 16 downstream PCIe 4.0 lanes for peripherals. Like other AMD chipsets, motherboard vendors can select between these PCIe lanes and additional SATA ports, giving board makers some flexibility between PCIe and storage.

The MSi X570 Unify seems fairly bland out of the box, with the only noticeable difference being the increased heat sink sizes, the pre-installed IO shield, and the built-in fan near the bottom. Moving around the board, the MSi X570 Unify features 4 x DIMM slots, 3 x M.2 slots, LED troubleshooting display, a power button, and a reset button.

The Creator has a full suite of high bandwidth options from USB 3.2 Gen2 through 7 M.2 slots and 10G LAN sitting alongside the Intel Gigabit option and Wi-Fi 6 AX200 wireless. All those CPU cores require a lot of power too and with a 70A power design there shouldn’t be any lack of ampage to keep your 3rd Gen Threadripper CPU fed.

So, what’s different about the UNIFY? Well, despite the very similar feature-set and appearance to the MSI MEG X570 ACE, the UNIFY has been stripped of all RGB LEDs, being squarely aimed at those who have grown tired of the craze that’s swept across the components market, it also lands at a more budget-friendly price, which you’d expect.

Like almost all gaming-oriented motherboards today, the MEG X570 Ace is a mostly black PCB. Black and grey heatsinks with yellow accents cover the chipset, the M.2 slots, and the power-regulation circuitry, giving the board a touch of color while also doing the crucial cooling duties.

Today, we are going to look at the MSI MPG Gaming Edge WiFi edition, which is aimed at filling the gap between a basic budget setup and something on the higher end. MSI has a long history of releasing many variations using the same chipset to fill all the needs of each type of build. From the truly basic motherboard like the MPG Gaming to the extreme heavy hitter GODLIKE series, rest assured that each one maximizes its targeted price point.

The X570 ACE sports a unique style. There’s a large portion of the board covered by extensive heatsinks adorned by a unique dark grey and copper theme, with a mirrored section for impressive RGB lighting. However, RGB lighting as a whole is kept to a minimum, contrary to many manufacturers at the moment.

MSI has seven X570s in its arsenal, and sitting nearer the top of the stack is the MEG X570 Ace that retails for £350. Compared to the firm’s own MPG X570 Gaming Plus, which we reckon is a decent entry-level effort costing exactly half as much, MSI adds an extra PCIe x16 slot, a trio of additional USB 3.1Gen2 (Type-A), explicit support for SLI, 2.5G LAN, WiFi 6, significantly beefier cooling and VRM support, along with better RGB lighting. Decent differentiation, then.
