Erying has introduced an unusual MoTD motherboard for building gaming system units. The novelty comes with a soldered Intel Core 14th generation processor for laptops, but otherwise it doesn't differ much from traditional models with a socket for desktop chips, and costs much cheaper.
MSI announced MEG Z890 GODLIKE motherboard, which became the most expensive model in the company's portfolio. Its price is comparable to buying a ready-made ?system? capable of running any modern AAA games.
MSI has released a new line of motherboards that includes four X870 and X870E chip-based models for AMD's flagship Ryzen 9000 processors.
