Overview of Components
PCI_E1~3: PCIe Expansion Slots

PCI_E2: PCIe 3.0 x1 (From B560 chipset)
PCI_E3: PCIe 3.0 x4 (From B560 chipset)
⚠
Important
∙
If you install a large and heavy graphics card, you need to use a tool such as MSI
Gaming Series Graphics Card Bolster to support its weight to prevent deformation of
the slot.
∙
For a single PCIe x16 expansion card installation with optimum performance, using
the PCI_E1 slot is recommended.
∙
When adding or removing expansion cards, always turn off the power supply and
unplug the power supply power cable from the power outlet. Read the expansion
card’s documentation to check for any necessary additional hardware or software
changes.
∙
PCI_E3 will be unavailable when installing M.2 SSD in M2_2 slot. However, if you
want to use both of them simultaneously, you can set x1 for PCI_E3 and set x2 for
M2_2 in BIOS.
