Exclusive information (courtesy of Videocardz) about the MSI X470 motherboard for the new generation AMD socket based AM4 processors. This motherboard will be available in two variants (with and without integrated WiFi AC).

MSI X470 Gaming Pro Carbon AC with news compared to the X370

Let's start with the changes regarding the X370. Aside from the design change and much more elegant covers, the X470 version has heat sinks on top of the VRM to better control temperatures. Power is supplied through two 8-pin EPS connectors (the X370 only had one).

The X470 Carbon Pro AC lost a PCIe x1 slot with this new model, but gained two additional SATA ports (there are 8 in total). There are still two M.2 slots, but the main one is covered with a new version of the M.2 Shield, which is much longer than the X370, so it should provide better heat dissipation.

This is not the best model for MSI's X470 platform. Sources say a GAMING M7 model is also being manufactured. The Gaming Pro lacks some of the features that other brands have in this price segment, like the debug LED or even the power and reset buttons.

X470 Gaming Pro Carbon is an interesting update to the X370 version, especially in the VRM section. MSI knows that black and silver designs are the most popular among PC builders and LEDs can be disabled if anyone wishes.

At the moment we do not know the price it will have for sale.
