Verdict

The MSI Pro B650-P WiFi is a professional-grade ATX motherboard designed for the AMD AM5 socket, supporting Ryzen 7000, 8000, and 9000 series processors. Key specifications include a 12+2+1 phase power design with dual 8-pin CPU connectors, support for up to 256GB of dual-channel DDR5 memory reaching speeds of 7200+ MHz (OC), and two PCIe 4.0 x16 slots alongside two M.2 Gen4 x4 slots with Shield Frozr cooling. Main pros include its robust 2.5G LAN and Wi-Fi 6E connectivity, a high-speed USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20Gbps) Type-C port, and a 6-layer PCB with thickened copper for improved thermal stability. However, notable cons include the lack of PCIe 5.0 support for both graphics and storage, a lower-tier Realtek ALC897 audio codec, and a limited offering of only two M.2 slots compared to some competitors in the same class.
