Review on MSI X570 Unify Motherboard Bluetooth by Kevin Graham

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I look forward to playing around with this board some more.

Impressions of this board so far. I love the aesthetic, really dig the lack of RGB. This was my first MSI product and I found it easy to get to grips with UEFI. I've noticed that the voltage in the monitoring software seems to be higher than what's set in UEFI, but to be honest I've noticed this on other boards too, so I'm putting it on "tolerance deviations". One thing struck me immediately and in direct comparison with my two Aorus x570 masters - the PCH runs much cooler, I mean around 10-12C - although the fan is much louder, but I only heard and saw it running during post- ap. Another notable temperature difference is that my NVMe runs cooler even under the built-in heatsink, cooler at 5-7C, and both Unify and x570 masters have the same physical layout, right under the CPU. So I really like it. Overall this is a great board and about $50 cheaper than the Master. So if you're looking to shell out the extra $50 for a better RAM kit or a faster CPU/GPU, this board is worth considering.
