With two lit names on the M.2 heatsink and Chipset heatsink, the mirrored Dragon logo and the Godlike screen, there is plenty to attract your attention.
It’s also worth giving a shout-out to the MSI 271QRX QD-OLED for being a fantastic monitor for the price. Getting the chance to see such rich colours and deep blacks makes the whole, tedious, process of benchmarking endless hardware that much more pleasant. It’s like a Swedish Massage for your eyeballs.
Clock Speeds
As you might expect from a motherboard that is named like this, the MSI MEG X870E Godlike shows well. Both our memory kits ran immediately with no tweaking. Meanwhile our Ryzen 9 9900X CPU ran hard even with a low amount of voltage pushed through it. The Godlike is all about headroom.
