Review on ๐Ÿ’ป MSI B460M-A PRO ProSeries Motherboard (mATX, 10th Generation Intel Core, LGA 1200 Socket, DDR4, M.2 Slot, USB 3.2 Generation 1, 2.5G LAN, DVI/HDMI) by Vladimir Castillo

Not a bad mobo (depending on your application).

To say it straight away: yes, this phone is cheap, it is thin, it has only one PCIEx16 slot, the I/O screen is a bit difficult to tinker, it only has a sys_fan header , installing a powerful i7 or i9 on it is probably not a good idea, RAM clocks are limited etc. If you want to build a powerful gaming rig or heavy duty workstation this mobo is NOT for you. But for some users, this mobo might just be perfect. I put together a high-end gaming/hobbyist workstation back in January (also with an MSI motherboard and an ATX profile for it), but recently I decided to build a small web server to host my website and a host modded Minecraft server. and this motherboard is the perfect low-cost little board that can handle such small server tasks. So far I've been running my server without too many problems, although I have yet to host my website on it. To get the most out of this board I would recommend pairing it with i5/16GB RAM. This board is also good if you want a basic web browsing or business PC, but it can also be useful for a low-end gaming PC if you hook up a budget GPU to it. . It's not a do-anything building board, it's an inexpensive board that focuses on the specific task you give it and gets it right. Before you buy this board, keep this in mind so you don't expect more and you won't be disappointed.

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
