Its MSI, I really like this company because they build really good hardware. I currently have it paired with my Ryzen 5 2600x , Its really good. I has a great system for overclocking. The bios is simple and user friendly. There's really no negatives you can give this board other then to add more lighting I guess lol but the lighting it does have is really nice looking. Also red and black scheme looks beautiful as always.

I bought the MSI X470 Gaming plus Motherboard after watching reviews of it and build guides with it being used. This board has some great features. Pros: Ease of Installation- all the guides included make this an easy board to install Processor support: board supports Gen 1 & 2 Ryzen CPUS & APUS straight out of the box. A quick flash of the system bios adds support for Ryzen Gen 3. Nvme slots: easily placed to make drive installation easy RGB & WaterCooling Support: the board has multiple RGB and pump headers for your cooling and RGB Needs Cons No cover for NVME slots: the board does not provide heatsink covers for NVME drives like other competitors at this price point. IO Shield: IO shield is. It built on to the board like other competitors in this price point On Mothetboard RGB: not enough RGB! One small line on the board with 5 options to choose from

My old motherboard died and was no longer available. After looking into many different replacements decided to swap from my old i5 to the new Ryzen CPUs. Went with this board and have not been disappointed. It was easy to install with plenty of room for everything and clear labeling/arrangement on the board itself. Performance has been great and it looks gorgeous. Highly recommend for anyone with or looking to switch to Ryzen. Previously had dealt mainly with Asus and EVGA products. This was my first MSI product and it won't be my last.
