Great motherboard with a solid design. Fairly future proof and pretty much the same thing as its beefier cousin the B870 whatever (with less ports).
No weird bios issues that PC Part Picker was complaining about - something related to the AMD processor? I have a 9950x3d and it works fantastic with no issues related to installation.
I can't speak to the WiFi because my Home internet is atrocious.
Honestly the biggest pain for installation was the easy latch for the SSD, but only because I'd never seen that before. Just move the spring loaded thing to the side and the SSD slots right in (that took an embarrassing amount of time to figure out).

For the price, this motherboard has an incredible amount of features. Two PCIe 5.0x4 nvme slots that don't share lanes with the gpu slot or each other, just enough USB ports for all my peripherals, and an easy-to-navigate but feature-rich BIOS. Best bang for buck B850 board on the market. The lack of a debug display and the unfortunate black/yellow-green colors on the board are my only gripes, but those are relatively minor compared to the other things that could have been cut for cost-saving reasons.

Best Bang for Buck AM5 board. This think is built like a tank. Pitch black for that setup where you want only the lights you want to show to shine. Easy to use BIOS. Setup for SecureBoot Windows 11 and Battlefield 6 worked at first launch. NOTE: BF6 would not launch on my previous Gigabyte board even though I had Secure Boot enabled. NO regrets with this board. Don't hesitate - just buy it. Has all the features you need and future proof for future processors and memory. Has all the bells and whistles the more expensive 870 boards have, but without the price tag.

Good motherboard designed for new generation processors with ample expansion options. Worked with Windows 11 right out of the box. Arrived new and well packaged in contrast to the dective/used one I had to return that was pruchased from the smiley box retailer.
Solid with great features and excellent reputation

Solid board, great features and does everything one needs. Only down side is no digital audio out, but with such a solid DAD controller, no need for one, just use the audio out. Installed a new AMD R7 9800 X3D and did not have to do any bios flash, worked out of the box.

LOVE this board. Incredibly well build, coming from an MSI x570 board everything feels fresh, updated and refined. The now Bios used on these boards is great. Everything was very easy to find and set up. Tons of heatsinks, and it's working with my 7800x3d well. No complaints!

Built my first ever PC with this motherboard and everything worked out on the first try thanks to how easy it is to work on.
The M-flash feature makes flashing your Bios super easy. I was scared to do it at first but it was smooth sailing and took like 10 minutes. I'll only buy MSI motherboards from now on.

The motherboard is good, except for the heatsink for nVME drives in the M2_2 and M2_3 slots. I discovered that the thermal pads (too thin) were not making contact with the nVME drive. I also found that the ASMedia SATA firmware had to be updated to recognize optical (Blu-Ray) drive. Also, don't bother with the EZ Front Panel cable. After making some adjustments, all is well!

Great motherboard, awesome BIOS options, great IO, would highly recommend for a budget build or even a high end all out build as you won’t get much more for a better price than this!

Pretty routine motherboard to build on. My only issue was with inserting the NVMe. I had a pretty hard time getting that knob to seeming work as intended. Could’ve been user error on my end but either way I would’ve spent significantly less time had it been a traditional insert method. That aside this thing lets me download large games like RDR2 in more or less 15/20 minutes.
