Simple swap from a b450. I'm not the biggest fan of the MSI bios and fan utility, but it does what it needs to. I found that Gigabyte utilities were more user-friendly.

good board with no issues what so ever. Board has 6 fan headers which is plenty enough for the average person and has 2 argb headers which is okay 1 more would be excellent to have though. other than that the RGB is a little bright but its not really that noticable as i have a large Graphics card.

Super nice looking motherboard. Had a new cpu so needed to update the bios which was made easy using the flash bios button. Would highly recommend this to someone who doesn’t have a later gen cpu to update the bios.

The only reason this is 2 stars and not 5 is because of BestBuy i had a DOA motherboard and thats fine the odds of that are slim. So thats fine but only having it for 3 hours at the max BestBuy employee told me it had a smell and that it was wet and couldnt return it long story short manager got involved replaced it for me. Now the motherboard its self is flawless no issues some off the comments was saying there was a problem with all 4 ram slots being used im not experiencing that but i will update is it goes but for now i love the motherboard not how BestBuy treated me especially since i pay for totaltech.
