Close but not perfect

Bought a month ago and about to open and install. I like the look, built-in Bluetooth, Wi-Fi is a plus. I don't like the documentation in the box. The online documentation was better, no mounting hardware was included. It seems to take a long time to pass the bios.

Pros
  • Hands free
Cons
  • Long wait

Best MSI MicroATX Board

I really enjoyed building this motherboard because everything was clear and it worked right the first time. There were tons of screws of all sizes to suit every occasion. There are LEDs on the board but not too many and the ability to address the LEDs to let me know the CPU temperature is very correct. My favorite part of the board is the BIOS, damn they did a good job of making the simple mode easy and the advanced mode has enough settings for advanced users. The only gripe, and it's a minor…

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

SECOND HAND? Internals

It's barely noticeable, but it looks like Revain sent a used motherboard. I'll keep it if it works properly. MSI should advertise that it has two NVMe slots. This makes a big difference (compared to using a PCI-E card adapter) when you're outside of Windows, e.g. B. when restoring a backup from the command line.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • ---

When I bought this motherboard to build my gaming computer, it seemed that it was all Had features I wanted: compact form factor, easy overclocking capability, PCIe 4.0 readiness when 11th Gen Intel processors come out, Bluetooth and WiFi functionality, front USB 3 support, and addressable RGB ports. The motherboard I forgot to check if the motherboard supports USB charging when the computer is in sleep mode so that wireless devices can be charged when the computer is not in use. I couldn't…

Pros
  • I'm holding my fists
Cons
  • Hard to say

2 of 2 dead on arrival.

The motherboard would not turn on, tried a different PSU and no other components. They asked to replace the old Revain with the same one and I think they took it literally. My guess is that both the ones I received were from the same bad batch.

Pros
  • Brilliantly done
Cons
  • Poor kit

Excellent motherboard so far

This is my first time using this brand and it was used to help my grandson build his first computer. Easily connect and install the M-2 drive, storage and operating system. The Windows 10 stick was recognized immediately and the OS installed quickly and easily. When rebooting, the system went to the flash drive instead of the hard drive to find the OS, but rebooting and pressing F-11 brought up a page to change the boot drive, and after it was selected and saved, the system switched smoothly to

Pros
  • Great selection
Cons
  • So so

DRAGON CENTER SOFTWARE IS TRASH.

Edit: I was able to figure out the RGB issue. The problem lay between a separate RGB controller and Mystic Light. For some reason, after I unplugged the RGB controller and plugged everything directly into the mobo, all commands were queued in the RGB controller (no idea, your guess is as good as mine) and affected the Mystic Light , which I reused. Welcome when all the lights are working again. Further testing led me to discover a bug in the hardware controller where if too many commands were…

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • I won't say anything
