Dose this MB come with a SLI brige?

I did not see an SLI bridge in the box nor did I expect to find one.

Does this motherboard have a specific way to install 2 RAM sticks? Like they go one alternate of another? Or do they both go in side by side?

Yes, but if you install them incorrectly you will receive a message when you start your computer up telling you to swap them into the correct positions. You can also check the manual that comes with it to see which slots you should use when only using 2 sticks of ram.

Where on the board are the LEDs?

There are multiple LEDs placed around this motherboard. I installed the application that controls these lights and played with them for roughly 10 minutes. There are 6 or 8 LEDs built into the board that you can control. Of course I purchased a case that does not have a window so I shut the case and went on my way. Most of the lights are around the processor and memory end of the motherboard. These are multi-colored for your entertainment. I recommend this board and a M.2 boot drive.

is this motherboard compatible with DDR5 video cards and with windows 7? Thank you

As long as the GPU fits the PCI standard, it’ll be fine. I’m booting Linux with no problem; how hard can windows seven be?—but I haven’t tried it.

Does this motherboard come with standoffs? My case doesn't have any.

I don't recall this MB coming with them. Normally the screws come with the case and sometimes pre-installed.

Will this motherboard support EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 SSC GAMING? Im new to PC building and although the graphics card says it supports PCI Express 3.0, I wanted to make sure.

Yes it will support the 1050. If you budget supports it go with the 1050ti or 1060 if you will be playing anything more than esports games

it says supports pentium for socket lga 1151 can i use a pentium until i get a coffee lake plz explain what this mean thank you?

There is a a coffee lake Pentium part, you can not use just any Pentium processor that you want.Pentium Gold G5400 or G5600.

Does it come with Direct M.2 Connections or do you have to buy a sata card for them?

It has 2 slots on the motherboard for M.2.
