The right product for me, there were no problems.

In general, the board (however, like all msi boards that I had) leaves a positive impression of a quality thing. I didnโ€™t find any jambs, everything is soldered smoothly, everything works, although my copy has come a long way on the way to the system unit and probably not the most careful handling. The segment's pay is above average, but I don't think it's reasonable to overpay much more for slightly better. When you take it in your hands, it feels like a good thing. 11700k with hyper xโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Superior Specifications Quality of materials and element base Appearance Intuitive BIOS Pretty fat veneer rich kit Decent built-in audio
Cons
  • The board is still with an older chipset, which means overclocking is supposed - accordingly, the BIOS reset button on the rear panel would be very useful, and in case of a critical failure, you have to get into the case and close the contacts. And, of course, the price is outrageous.

I don't think EK is the problem.

I've been building water-cooled PCs for a few years. Anything from basic CPU cooling to full kits with 2 heatsinks, GPU and CPU, hard PETG tubes etc. About 90% of the time I use EK products because they have proven to be superior in build quality, reliability and great looks to have. But for some reason every time they do business with MSI, be it GPUs or motherboards, I get problems and that's why I stop buying them here. In my experience, EK just supplies the parts while MSI makes them. Iโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Improved power plan: Duet Rail 16+1+1 power system, dual 8-pin CPU power connectors, Core Boost, DDR4 Boost
Cons
  • Something is wrong

Everything about the product satisfied me, the price is perfect.

Hello. Recently I bought a motherboard from everyone's favorite MSI (I bought it in principle from this company, because I already had experience buying their motherboards). I bought it as a gift for my son, so it's a big plus for a beautiful box, it's not a shame to give)). Among the advantages of this motherboard, I can note a convenient and understandable BIOS, a cannon-shaped design for a gaming PC, a wide range of technical capabilities such as overclocking hardware (I tried to overclockโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Convenient bios Cool design Processor overclocking capability
Cons
  • Didn't find

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

I'll start with the packaging. Packaging of all devices from MSI is always on the level! It was a pleasure to unpack this motherboard. Also included are a bunch of stickers. I stick them on my PC all the time. Design is something that looks very decent on the outside. The backlight is neither bright nor dim. I have a block on the table to the right of the monitor, the backlight does not interfere with my eyes Therefore, here is also a solid five Installed motherboard with i7 11700KF processor I

Pros
  • Packaging, design, technical specifications, appearance, motherboard for many years
Cons
  • In principle, MSI never has problems with shortcomings. That's why they're not here either. Of course, the price could be lower, but still top
