Pros: Worked right out of the box, no need to install any software to use it. Connected it into to a USB port and it was immediately recognized as a DVD/CD device on my computer that has Win8.1 OS. The provided cable is plenty long enough. Looks and feels like a high quality device. The retail packaging that it comes with is sturdy and can be used to store the unit when it isn't being used. Eliminates the need for having a DVD/CD device permanently installed n a computer case that rarely gets used and allows for using smaller cases. Easily transported and stored.

Cons: Seemed a little slow but as it is uses the USB 2.0 interface, that was expected.

Overall Review: Would have preferred a USB 3.0 interface external DVD/CD for the higher speed but cost was prohibitive ( about 4X higher).

Pros: Very clean AM4 mini-Itx motherboard. The NVMe™ M.2 SSD is located on front side of motherboard for easy access. Orientation of the SATA ports so the retaining clip of each Sata cable is accessible and removable even with the adjacent Sata cable plugged in is a a thoughtful feature. Overall, a nice implementation of a min-ITX motherboard at a decent price.

Cons: Difficult to align the NVMe™ M.2 SSD with the sticky side of the heat sink. It took several tries to insure the SSD was in its connector and aligned with the heat sink and aft hold down screw. The CPU power connector is in a awkward location between the backpanel video output ports and USB ports, but it is workable.

Overall Review: For those looking for a well made, basic mini-ITX motherboard I would recommend.

Pros: Pre attached backplate is a nice feature. The wifi antenna magnetic base is nice and the antenna connector is easy to attach (and remove) on the rear panel. Two M.2 SSD slots is a plus also.. Windows 11 installed with no issues. WiFi 6 capable.

Cons: Not particularly thrilled with the plastic M.2 SSD hold down. It works, and is convenient but I prefer the more secure hold down post and screw. The plastic M.2 SSD hold down is to physically close to the (PCIEX4) card slot. I might have to cut the retaining strap for clearance to install the second M.2 SSD. Having memory hold down clips at each end of the memory connector is a good feature, all though you need to make sure that they are completely latched after installing memory. So far, I have not been able to enable Secure Boot but I don't know if I should care or not.

Overall Review: I purchased this MB along with a 5700x CPU to upgrade an older computer that was not Win 11 capable. Transferred the DR4 memory from the old MB to save costs. Overall, this Gigabyte MB is solid upgrade for my purposes and so far I am pleased with the MB

Pros: Initial evaluation is that this is a decent keyboard. I like the clicky keys. Size wise, it is minimal in width but is full length. I have only been using it for a couple of weeks but so far I like it. Feels sturdy and should last.

Cons: It would be even better if it was a 'Tenkeyless' reduced size 'gaming' keyboard.

Overall Review: Would recommend.

Pros: Very well made, flexible and easy to install. Utilizes a latching mechanism to prevent inadvertent removal or disconnect. But you need to remember to unlatch to remove the cable.

Cons: no cons noted

Overall Review: I would recommend and would purchase again.

Pros: The compact size of this video card was a primary reason for my purchase. It is replacing a ASUS RTX 2060 triple fan card that covered most of the SATA ports on my Gigabyte Micro ATX motherboard making them unusable. Secondly this graphics card should be an improvement performance wise from the RTX 2060. My gaming needs are minimal so the RTX 4060 should be more than adequate.

Cons: Other than cost, I have no negative concerns with this purchase. I have waited patiently for the price to drop but that doesn't appear to going to happen any time soon

Overall Review: I have used MSI video cards previously (specifically a Nvidia 1060 vintage) and they have performed flawlessly. Other than discovering that when the mfg recommends a power supply of a certain wattage or greater, you need to heed the mfg. advice and install accordingly. MSI makes quality products. Recommended
