Worked out of the box with Ryzen 5600G. Wifi and Bluetooth are great. The wifi antenna looks very cool.
Good number of slots for expansions Connectors for all kinds of parts
It was easy to plug in components and the board was sturdier than I thought it would be.
has allot of good features for the price point
This Review is for the MSI Review Rebate Program. Great board so far. Easy to work on.
An absolute steal for under 100 bucks! Lots of fan and rgb headers, type c header and wifi built in. Dropped in a 5800x and was up and running in no time at all, no memory problems or temperature issues. If you are needing an AM4 board for gaming, this is the one!
very little RGB Great features Easy to use
- top of the line motherboard (with some bling removed compared to the non-lite version) - ultimately expandable and future-proof: 1) 2x 2 PCIe 5.0 slots, 2) 4x M.2 slots (1xGen5, 3xGen4) - tool-less M.2 - E-ATX means components are less cramped, better airflow, easier to build
Alot of RGB and fan headers, perfect color match for white/off white build, was my first build and everything flowed wonderfully
Its number of m.2 slots
- Great connectivity (Rear usb 3.2 gen-2 type-A and type-C) - M.2 Wifi slot - Two slots for M.2 PCIe Gen4x4 and PCIe Gen3x2 SSDs - Good VRM heatsink
Booted on first try Was able to setup expo on my Silicon Power CL30/6000 RAM (My model was not on the QVL) A lot of LED headers if you are into that BIOS is not the fanciest but can't complain for the price. Has everything you need.
Very sturdy motherboard, looks fantastic, easy setup, perfect amount of features, plenty of USB ports, minimal lane-sharing issues, easy to use BIOS
-Beautiful color -WIFI 7, Ethernet 5G -Audio S/PDIF connection (is a MUST if you want to connect to older AVR and older TV) -Tons of M.2 and PCIE connection
Simple setup, worked and updated itself on first power up zero issues thus far. Massive heat sinks everywhere running benchmarks so far everything has been optimal. Nothing over 70c at 100% on processor,board, or video card. Wish I had known before hand they had heat sinks installed on the M.2 sockets for M1 M3 and M4. Wouldnt have had to buy memory with heat sinks. This is more positive than negative hence the pros column.
S-tier aesthetics here, with everything you'd want from an x870. The BIOS is a step up from last gen. Everything just works and very accessibly so.
This board was a breeze to setup and flash updated bios. More than enough expandability/drive support for all your needs.
Exceptional overclocking and memory timings. 9950x3d can clock to 5.9 GHz stable. Makes things smooth as butter. Having all the options to tune so many things means as time goes on we can hone in on the highest fps, lowest latency possible.
New platform for me worked out pretty good was nervous of the first book memory training took a little longer than usual work great..
