MSI is set to elevate gaming performance on its 800-series MAX motherboards with the introduction of a cutting-edge BIOS enhancement. The latest feature, dubbed “PBO BCLK Booster,” promises to unleash the full potential of AMD Ryzen CPUs, offering users a significant boost in gaming and application performance.
Introducing MSI’s PBO BCLK Booster
MSI continues to enhance its AM5 800-series motherboards with valuable BIOS updates. Noteworthy past additions include features like X3D Gaming Mode, Latency Killer, and support for massive 256 GB DDR5 capacities. The latest innovation, the PBO BCLK Booster, is designed to work seamlessly with the motherboard’s BCLK generators. This feature, compatible with both the “MAX” series and other high-end models like the B850MPOWER and MEG X870E GODLIKE, optimizes Ryzen CPUs through a simple one-click BIOS profile.
Gaming Performance Enhanced
The PBO BCLK Booster allows users to fine-tune their AMD Ryzen CPUs, promising up to a 15% increase in gaming performance. With profiles for different CPUs, such as the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, the BCLK can be adjusted to specific values, like 103 MHz or 105 MHz, optimizing speed without manual overclocking. Accompanied by MSI’s DDR5 Tuning feature, this setup enables measurable gains in popular titles: 6% in Cyberpunk 2077, 5% in Metro Exodus, 7% in Far Cry 6, and 15% in DOOM: The Dark Ages.
Getting the Most from Your Hardware
For users eager to explore this new feature, the PBO BCLK Booster is available in BETA within the AGESA 1.2.0.3G BIOS release, with a full rollout anticipated with the 1.2.7.0 update. Users can now achieve enhanced performance without the need for complex manual tuning, thanks to the PBO BCLK Booster’s user-friendly integration. This innovation is another step in MSI’s commitment to maximizing the capabilities of AMD Ryzen CPUs on their feature-rich motherboards.
