● Onlooker MSI B350 TOMAHAWK

MSI B350 TOMAHAWK Reference price: Loading... Image reviews Overview of quotation parameters

Tomahawk, an Indian Tomahawk native to North America, is a commonly used tool for Native Americans. The modern navy has given it a new meaning. It is the code name of the US-developed ship-to-ground cruise missile. Adding the symbol of the Battle Axe to the main board symbolizes the power of the axe and its extraordinary image, thus creating the motherboard of today's MSI B350 TOMAHAWK.


ATX standard

Today's motherboards are pursuing personalized design in appearance design. For example, on the MSI B350 TOMAHAWK motherboard today, PCBs are diagonally printed with diagonally parallel lines, and the colors are arranged in an orderly manner, which shows that the artistic cells of MSI's design department are full.


South Bridge heat dissipation

Heavy metal style south bridge cooling chip, with MSI brand LOGO, belief value UPUP.


PCI expansion

The MSI B350 TOMAHAWK motherboard is equipped with two PCIe 3.0 slots to support dual A-Crossfire. The x16-band slot above has an armored design that is full of texture and provides good protection for the interface. The following one is used as a backup or to install other high-bandwidth devices.


M.2 SSD installation position

The motherboard is equipped with an M.2 SSD interface, which is a bit different from what we commonly see. Support 2280 size, compatible with the other two 2260, 2242 shorter specifications.


SATA port

MSI B350 TOMAHAWK motherboard has built-in four SATA 6Gbps interfaces, and layout in different directions, to facilitate the players of different installed programs to wiring, user-friendly design.


I/O interface

Although only the B350 motherboard, the MSI B350 TOMAHAWK's I/O interface layout is very rich. Provides a PS/2 keyboard interface, built-in four USB 3.0 and a set of USB 3.1 A+C interfaces, which will be practical for users with large data requirements. In addition, there are two DVI and HDMI display output interfaces for the APU, and even the traditional but still popular interfaces such as VGA are brought on. It is very user-friendly. Others are regular network cables and audio interfaces.

It can be seen that MSI, as a big manufacturer of board cards, has gone through the practical considerations of players in the details of design, layout and quantity of interfaces, and it is believed that when everyone uses them, it will be difficult to say goodbye to clever women.

● Appreciation of MSI B350 TOMAHAWK


CPU power supply

From the heat sink hidden under the capacitance, inductance can be seen, MSI B350 TOMAHAWK uses a 4 + 2 phase CPU power supply scheme, 4 phase using 3MOS tube, 3 phase using 4MOS tube, which MOS tube on the bridge for a NIKOS PK616BA, Under the bridge is a combination of 2 NIKOS PK632BA, excellent workmanship.


Memory slot

Although there is no high-end MSI motherboard with a solidified alloy design, four slots are still built for gamers to use. The maximum support for dual-channel 2667MHz frequency memory, while the motherboard PCB also prompted to insert the A2+B2 slot, the power supply design next to the memory is also very generous.


Audio section

This motherboard has LED audio cutting line design, built-in REALTEK audio chip ALC892, dense audio capacitors to ensure that the audio output amplified signal.


Gigabit Ethernet

The same is REALTEK's 8111H network card chip, which belongs to the specification of Gigabit LAN.

● Theoretical performance test:


Test platform screenshot

The motherboard is an extension of the CPU. The effect on performance is whether it can provide a good environment for the CPU to work stably. The Ryzen 7 1800X and GTX 1080 are used together.

Most of the above software is used to test the performance of CPUs, graphics cards, and SSDs. The purpose is to test whether the motherboard can make the hardware mounted on it stable.

● BIOS: The design of the international fantasies


BIOS interface


Advanced mode

As a veteran board maker, MSI has a comfortable interface design. Although there are many function options in the interface, it can be clearly interpreted.


basic settings

BIOS supports multi-language settings, naturally we prefer Chinese. Chinese text fonts are similar to some games and look very comfortable.


BOOT boot options


Overclocking related options


Overclocking options

Whether it is the basic settings or advanced settings, or overclocking settings, these should be the most commonly used for the user, with a handy, do not need too much extra learning costs.


System monitoring


Motherboard device manager

In addition, the BIOS also provides application-style monitoring capabilities, at a glance. An onboard device manager is also provided to allow players to read the status of the motherboard in real time.

● Frequency full load temperature test:

In the temperature test section, we mainly examined the problems of the CPU power supply of the mainboard. This part of the temperature is the place where the main board generates a large amount of heat, and it is also the key to the stability of the mainboard. We used the Fluke Ti25 thermal imager to test and recorded two data when idle (CPU, video card is empty) and full load (CPU full, video card is empty).


Idle (left), full load (right)

The temperature of the top Ryzen 7 1800X is about 65°C after full load. The temperature control is considered an excellent level. After all, it is 1800X.
