Excellent value for money

Excellent board, intuitive BIOS, great performance Connection to AMD Ryzen 7 processor 3700X, Radeon RX 5600 XT Sapphire Pulse, 16GB RAM 3600MHz and 2280GB or 500GB NVMe PCIe 4.0 M.2 drive or older. Espero poder posteriormente cambiar las memorias por unas mรกs rapidas. Tras tres semanas de uso perfecto todo, muy bien y allowe ir haciendo mejoras.

Pros
  • Blazing fast gaming: PCIe 4.0, Lightning Gen 4 M.2 with M.2 Shield Frozr, AMD Turbo USB 3.2 GEN 2
Cons
  • Not bad

Great board for the price!

Excellent board, as expected from MSI, especially at this price point. Many fan headers for my system, many connection options for my needs. However, the BIOS is a bit cumbersome to use. It's not very easy. Not sure if it's this particular board or if most other modern MSI boards are the same. Having only had Asus and Gigabyte motherboards in the past, I would say that the BIOS on motherboards from these manufacturers is easier to navigate. Just kidding. Very happy with this motherboard so far.

Pros
  • AUDIO BOOST rewards your ears with studio quality sound for an immersive gaming experience
Cons
  • Pretty much everything is fine

BIOS will not be published, dead on arrival

Do not publish; no video. The fans and lights on board came on, but that was about it. The MB Error LED indicates a processor error. MSI support was terrible, their advice didn't apply to the problem so I bought a new processor and still had the same problem. I had to send the board back which was then delayed. So I bought a Gigabyte B550 AORUS Elite for almost the same price and everything works great now. Ryzen 5 3600, Ripjaws F4-3200C16D, WD black SN750 M.2. MSI's customer service andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Supports dual-channel DDR4 memory up to 128GB (4400MHz)
Cons
  • Vulgarity
