Very nice performance

Upgraded my old PSU for more power and PCIE connectors. - More than enough power for my current setup - Really quiet - Nice cables and connectors, also received a free 16-pin to dual 8-pin adapter cable from MSI

- Easy installation on my setup - Running all my games like a charm

Why did I pick this? This is my first AMD CPU. I mainly chose this because Intel has been having issues with their CPUs. I waffled between the 9600X, the 9700X and the 9800X3D. Ultimately it came down to price. With GPUs being outrageous, I chose the cheapest CPU with the thought that when Zen 6 comes out I can swap the CPU. I really had no issues with it. Seems to install like any other CPU.

Tons of features very nice looking board booted first boot with the bundled ram bios flash went great first try and worked great. when flashing be patient it will restart a time or two just let it do its thing.

1. Price It was actually at MSRP when I purchased it. 2. Performance with some tweaking it is runnning close to RTX 5070TI specks for a lot less money. 3. Looks It looks great and you can even turn off the LED's if you do not want thier color.

Huge storage that is faster than the 4 TB expansion disks that I bought several years ago.

Hefty and Strong. Built like a tank. Works as it should

Simple. Period.

Easy setup with a 9900x and 2 sticks (16gb each) CL30 DDR5. Everything came together well and quick detour to bios on setup to set CPU and ram exos oc and all is good in the world. A true no issue at all experience

Easy to install Multiple features Sturdy High quality User-friendly

high read and write speed - everything flies; better results in comparison with 980 PRO; five-year warranty; adequate operating temperatures in comparison with competitors; reliability.

Worked fine with my new Ryzen 9900X + MSI 5070 Gaming Trio + Linux Mint build. The BIOS fan curves and other settings are easy to adjust (Yes, I'm old enough to be impressed by friendly BIOS screens. You kids dunno how good you've got it these days).

3 PCIE 4 NMVE slots Strong voltage regulation ROG STRIX brand, their other chipset MB sells for $500 - their engineers put only what is needed to get the lower price point. BIOS flash without having to power on MB before first boot when building.

- Best Price - plenty of USB ports - Lots of features (WIFI7, Bluetooth, USB4, pcie 5) - Solid Build Quality

Always keeps cpu cool, never have run a pc without, dont know what its like without it, but with results that it has provided me with, i dont even care to find out what the normal pad does

10GB ethernet port is cool.

Purchased this motherboard while I was waiting for a RMA on another motherboard brand and it works without any issues.

got these for free with a new build bundle. Was not expecting the awesome lighting effect they have will add two more sticks if I see them on sale

Does a great job / fast!
