From displaying system temps to moving graphics and the weather, your choices are endless. So, go ahead and personalise it to your liking within MSI Center. A safe, efficient PSU With all these upgrades, it would be wise to also upgrade your PSU to ensure you can provide sufficient power to each component safely. MSI’s MPG A850GF and A750GF PSUs are engineered to withstand the demands of new-gen parts from 12th Gen Intel CPUs as well as Nvidia’s 30-series graphics cards, making them the perfect choice for a premium, top-tier PC build.
