Slow post
It posts very slow. A long time before getting to Bios... with a samsung 970 I shouldn't need 45 seconds to boot. It's much slower than my 10 yr old machine with 860 evo. Other than that, it does its job. RGB is cool on default - I couldn't get it to control my corsair ram nor stock 2700x cooler but I didn't try much. Note that each NVME drive you use (up to 2) kills off a couple of SATA ports and or PCI slots. Almost forgot... I was getting a c... Show More

Does not boot with 3rd gen Ryzen
They know they dont boot with 3rd gen Ryzen which are most people choose to build on this board. They know the issue since June, and they dont care to flash the BIOS before put them back on stock. It literately took me 1 day to figure out what's the problem with no boot. It is scary during a total new build. It really changed my opinion against MSI which is one of my favorite company. BTW, If you dont have a working PC, I dont suggest you to try this. If you get blank screen and ez red Cpu light, go download latest bios and use bios flashback to upgrade your bios.

Great features, BIOS is iffy for Ryzen 3000
Pros: USB BIOS Flashback, WiFi, M.2 shield, 3+ audio outs, ARGB headers. Cons: USB BIOS Flashback did not work initially using my old USB drive - had to buy a cheap new one. BIOS does not seem fully functional with Ryzen 3000. With v17 of the BIOS, the CPU debug light would stay on and computer would fail to POST. A manual restart usually did the trick. After a few days on v18, the problem seems to mostly remain except the computer will restart itself, which at least is a step up from before. If MSI releases a stable BIOS that POSTs quickly, this would get 5 stars.

dead on arrival, a birthday ruined
I love this B&H but this product sucks. I don't know about the 5 star reviews,but this Motherboard seems to be very unreliable. there are 100s of people who are facing the same problem of the motherboard being unusable. MSI has lost my faith. After 4 days of trouble shooting. I'm finally returning this product. Maybe that's what you get for $159/ Please don't buy it.

One of the best
If you are planning on overclocking. This is it. Best vrm set and temps stays super cool. Has tons of options and outputs for fan and rgb. Good looking board and this wont disappoint you. Well worth the extra 30 bucks from the other low end motherboards.

Solid Motherboard
Picked this up for a decent price. Solid piece of equipment. Easy install. Easy instructions to follow. BIOS is easy to understand and manage. WiFi is solid. RGB is a nice touch as well. Very pleased with purchase thus far.

Great MOBO!
Love the product and B&H is a MUST for pc builders!! But, MSI should consider fixing their registration process.....tried to register products but always says error, try again later. SELLER IS 5 STAR ALL THE WAY!!!

My 5th Build
Easy to work with. Nice logical layout. Nice separation between functions. Performance is what i would expect from my favorite manufacturer, MSI (Third party support not required)
