MSI has introduced one-click auto overclocking features in its latest B850 and X870 Max series AM5 motherboards, claiming up to a 15% performance boost on AMD's Ryzen 7 9800X3D through manipulation of BCLK, PBO, and memory timings. The auto-overclocking features include two BCLK profiles and memory tuning options like "Memory Try It!" and "High-Efficiency Mode."
