Overall Review: This motherboard has fairly widespread issues with the most popular SSDs disappearing in BIOS and/or causing BSOD crashes upon wake from sleep mode in Windows. It also has a terrible post time, which only adds to the frustration of endlessly restarting, hoping the SSD actually loads correctly. They have yet to fix this in any BIOS updates as of May 2024. I had PCs in the 90s that loaded faster. Save yourself the headaches. Get the ASRock X670E Steel Legend instead. It has just as many USB ports, none of the compatibility issues, and it posts a lot faster besides. I wish I hadn't tried to save a few bucks on my second AM5 build with this MSI board.
