AM4 Solid build Humidity resistant Dual-Channel Good heat sink Affordable

All features work perfectly. Has a built in gpu support bracket. Great stability.


Nice layout Easy bios flash Booted right away with 9800x3d PCIE 5.0 2 ssd spots with no PCIE 5.0 interference

Plenty of USB ports including 3.0 and USB C Advanced audio ports Built-in quality ASIO driver (if you make music) AIPC ready (whatever that means!) Advanced overclocking options and capabilities

- muted aesthetic - easy to use BIOS - built-in WiFi and Bluetooth - good I/O selection

-Terrific rear I/O. -Q-Flash makes updating the BIOS a breeze. -M.2 PCIe distribution is preferable to the x870 board even with one less gen 5 slot. -All M.2 slots are covered by heatsinks. -EZ Latch makes upgrading or switching out parts much faster. -Plenty of power for a juiced up 9800x3d. -AMD Expo works flawlessly with 6000mhz RAM. -Some might consider it a con, but I personally love the simplified array of rear audio ports. I use USB for my headset audio, and my speakers are a simple 3.5mm plug. -Sleek looks with a killer value. -Small touch, but BIOS themes are nice.

Performance and Reliability Build Quality Ease of Installation

Sleek RGB Lighting Easy to install Packaged with care

- Test bench setup and posted within 20 minutes. - Reasonably priced. - Latest B model motherboard. - Built in WiFi for a good price.

lots of connectivity, more than most will need for a board this size, bios seems very full featured, but i'm not a tweaker, so i don't fiddle with the bios too much

Pros are I'm a noob and I could still figure out how to set up power fans and cpu cooler

-Switched from Atx to micro Atx on a new build. Everything honestly works better and i definetely am not short on any features.

Build Quality Robust Construction: The motherboard employs a durable PCB with reinforced PCIe slots to ensure stability under heavy loads. The overall construction feels sturdy and premium. High-Quality Components: MSI uses reputable components like Nichicon capacitors, known for their longevity and reliability. This contributes to the board's overall durability. Effective Layout: The layout is well-organized, making cable management and component installation straightforward. The placement of ports and headers is logical and accessible. Thermal Design VRM Cooling: The VRM (Voltage Regulator Module) is equipped with a substantial heatsink and a fan to efficiently dissipate heat, especially during overclocking or heavy workloads. M.2 Heatsinks: The M.2 slots feature dedicated heatsinks to prevent throttling of high-performance NVMe SSDs. This is crucial for maintaining optimal storage speeds. Sufficient Airflow: The board's design allows for adequate airflow, ensuring that components like the chipset and audio circuitry remain cool.

The board itself is a very nice board. The memory that came with it was very nice memory too. The two together work.

Overall the board seems very good. Good heat sinks on nvme m.2 slots. Larger sinks are put on the gen 5 slot also. Lots of headers for fans, rgb, usb, and sata. Usb 4 ports on back are nice for a touch screen monitor using one usb-c cable, and seem fast for external nvme drives. There is also a 30 watt usb-c port which is handy. All the external ports are 10gbps, except both the usb 4 ports are 40gbps, and the ethernet port is 5g. The wifi 7 works great as does the Bluetooth also.

-Basic board with only the things required -Looks great in my rig -has the screw on type WIFI antenae -PCIe 5.0 SSD slot -PCIe 5.o x 16 slot

other then one of my RGB pin was slightly bent but was able to straighten it out. other then that for the price this board is great. I got a white pc built so it look and perform amazing. I would definitely buy another one in the future.

It’s doing what it’s supposed to for a good price.

Excellent I/O selection, including USB4 and front USB-C Clean white design, great for themed builds Robust VRM, handles high-end CPUs well EZ Flash made the BIOS update effortless Great number of ARGB and fan headers for customization. Didnt have to use my controller.
