Review on Motherboard MSI X570-A PRO by Micha Dobrzyski ᠌

In general, mat. pay for your budget (12022) lives up to expectations. One of the most budget solutions based on the X570 chipset. At the same time, MSI, of course, saved on everything they could: from cooling on the VRM (and the VRM itself cannot be said to be super) to the configuration (they didn’t even put the manual). Mother took off with R5 3600 and HyperX Predator 3333Mhz. Immediately out of the box, the CPU wound up at 4Ghz, and the memory at 3466Mhz (16-18). Tests pass, works stably. If you conjure, and sit to twist the fine settings, then you can pull out more. It is advisable to ate the BIOS before installing Windows (but always BEFORE installing firewood). I had version 20 out of the box, and after installing Windows and drivers, the system began to lag terribly, to the point that it refused to boot. Flashing the latest BIOS helped, since MSI has already managed to rivet > 60 versions during this time! Therefore, a healing flash drive with the latest BIOS version must be acquired in advance. The BIOS, by the way, is quite pleasant, I don’t know why everyone hates the MSI BIOS and praises ASUS. Yes, ASUS may be prettier, but MSI's capabilities and settings are no worse, and in some places even better. Nice overclocker life facilitators in the form of Memory Try it! in stock. LLC and fine voltage settings too. Manual overclocking gave 4.4Ghz / 1.2V / LLC Mode 3 - for me it's such a good result. The memory took 3800Mhz when the SoC stabilized at 1.1V and DDR 1.39V. As a result, top performance came out for quite modest money. Let's hope the quality of the iron will not let you down either. Can the mother be recommended for purchase? Other things being equal and with a tight budget, perhaps yes. Good boards based on X470/B450 are either sold out or overpriced and comparable to the price of boards based on X570. On the plus side, we get guaranteed Zen-3 support on the X570 and very rich overclocking capabilities. If MSI had given this mother a little better nutrition, she would, in principle, be an ultimatum in terms of price / opportunity ratio.
