THE DECISIVE WEAPON IN THE DARK
Sturdy, stable and solid, the MSI Nightblade X2B is loaded with the perfect ammunition for PC gamers that do not want to compromise on gaming performance. The MSI Nightblade X2B embodies what every gamer craves for: victory.

DIRECTX 12
Nightblade X2B fully supports Windows 10, taking advantage of DirectX 12 for a supreme gaming experience.

ASSEMBLED WITH INTEL CORE TECHNOLOGY
At the heart of the Nightblade there is a powerful Intel® Core processor that is capable of bringing all the power you need in your system. Next to X2, these processors are very energy efficient, so an ideal choice for your gaming rig.

DDR4 SUPPORT
The 6th Generation Core i7 CPU comes with a brand new architecture that supports the high speed of DDR4 at 2133MHz memory modules. The dual channel of DDR4-2133 brings a 33% performance enhancement compared with that of the dual channel DDR3-1600 memory.

SUPER CHARGER 2
With MSI Super Charger 2 you can provide 10X power deliver than regular USB chargers to your smartphone, tablet, USB game controller or portable console. You can quickly charge these devices, when you're not gaming on your PC, eliminating the need for wall power sockets.

CARRY TO A LAN PARTY
A useful handle situated at the bottom-front of the Nightblade's mini-ITX case can be used to pick up and carry this lightweight gaming beast around from one LAN-party to the next.
And the level of mobility doesn't just stop there. With help of the rubber covers fitting the metal screws on the backside of the Nightblade, this system can even be stacked up vertically after carrying it around. That way, the panel and connectors on the back remain unharmed each time when arriving at a new gamer's den.

EXCELLENT GRAPHICS FOR GAMERS
The Nightblade fits a large size Graphics Cards up to 290mm length and 35mm thickness. This means you can for instance fit in a MSI GTX 980Ti GAMING graphics card to blast away your gaming opponents.

AUDIO BOOST
To deliver the crispest sound signal to gamers’ ears, a special hardware amplifier called ‘Audio Boost’ is integrated onto the Nightblade’s motherboard, especially benefiting gamers using a gaming headset.

COOLING WITH A DRAGON FAN
To make you hear the crispest sounds, the Nightblade X2B is as quiet as possible by optimizing the airflow and keeping the system running cool. With no less than three air vents (front, side and top), hot air is easily exhausted out of the Nightblade's chassis.Cool air enters the PC throught the front and bottom vents. In contrast with standard 400-1200rpm case fans, the seven giant blades of the MSI Dragon Fan can produce an air pressure of max. 3600rpm.

TRUE GAMING NETWORK WITH KILLER LAN
The new Killer E2400 Intelligent Networking Platform, featuring Advanced Stream Detect 2.0, is built for maximum networking performance for online games and high-quality streaming media. Killer LAN automatically detects and accelerates game traffic ahead of other network traffic for smoother, stutter-free in-game performance and the competitive edge.
