Premium board without the steep price
This is a fantastic motherboard for the price. I just finished my new build. After turning on my PC, I was watjed that I had the memory in enefficent slots. It even told me where to move them to fix the problem. You have to enable XMP in the BIOS on most memory, as it defaults to 2133mhz. This was quick and easy. The SSD slot I used on the board itself also had a heatsink. That's a nice touch. When I installed windows 10 and connected to the internet, I received a pop up window for MSI Center, which updates drivers. That's a fantastic feature that I never expected to see on a fresh install.ninexpefted to go to the website for this. He careful installing the board, as some people, including myself, have managed to bend the tab next to the Ethernet port, causing it to cover thenpart where the plug would click in place. I was able to fix this by removing the screws only and just sliding the entire board just a bit to bend this tab back where it goes. It sits next to the port and pushes against the I/O shield. Overall, this boardnis fantastic. Looks good and worked right out of the box. Can't ask for anything more.

Nice motherboard but remember no Wi-Fi
Motherboard works as it should. Only downside is not so great instructions on how to install it. Make sure you update the bios for 13th gen chips or it won’t work with them. Price is good

Great motherboard!
Great mother board for its price. I also have a asus graphics card and they pair perfectly. Even my biggest games run over 100fps while I record at 1080p quality. I would highly Recommend this for a somewhat budget build!
