Amazon.com: Customer reviews: MSI MEG AMD X570 Unify AM4 ATX DDR4-SDRAM Motherboard

Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2020

I LOVE this board. It was easy to install and get up and running. I had exchanged a bricked board for this one. This one cost me over a $100 more BUT this one has 3 M.2 slots instead of the other board. I wasn’t crazy that this board only had 4 SATA slots, compared to the board before this one which had 6 SATA slots but as I previously said, this one comes with 3 M.2 slots INSTEAD of 2. Another perk is this one has FAST WiFi and my previous one didn’t. I love the fact that this board has a red reset button on the board and it has a 2 digit fault code reader next to it. That’s a big plus for troubleshooting. The original seller had it listed as an mini ATX layout, and that worried me because I wanted an ATX sized motherboard but I was happily surprised when I opened the box and saw it WAS an ATX board. Getting into the BIOS was easy. The board I had returned for this one had sluggish BIOS and this one was easy and informative. I read some other reviewers which said, “I would have to install both 8 pin connections,” which this board does have for the CPU, but I also read I ONLY really needed 1 8pin CPU connector unless I was planning on seriously over locking, which I wasn’t. I love the X570 chipset this board comes with and I paired it with a RYZEN 5 3Rd Gen 3600 series. I also added an ADATA 1TB M.2 NVME drive for my OS and some programs. I also have a 3TB hard drive installed for space. I had to format the 1TB M.2 drive to GUID instead of NTFS for best performance because my OS wouldn’t recognize it as a bootable drive and so I could take advantage of UEFI speed instead of Legacy. I went into my BIOS after doing so, made my M.2 drive my first bootable drive, saved my settings and restarted my computer. Before my system used to take about 4 minutes to boot and run. This bad boy now boots and runs under 20 seconds. BIG difference. I was able to load all my software from a previously made backup to my now GUID partitioned 3TB internal hard drive. The WiFi is FAST but I don’t use it cause I have my Ethernet cable plugged right into my motherboard. I love the all black look and am not really into RGB’s but this board does have connections for it and even comes with 2 cables for RGB lighting. I’m not a gamer but I did download 2 games because I bought a video card. I can’t get my 5 year old son off my new build cause he loves the visuals of the games. I played a game and it was a nice experience. The game was crisp and very realistic looking. Computers have come a long way from my Atari days and even the days where you played games on your computer from a floppy disc. The board has 1 PCIE 16 pin slot and I think the other is an 8pin PCIE. The board also comes with 4 memory slots for up to 128GB’s of RAM. I have 2 Dual 8GB’s X 16GB’s total and this rig is FAST. I’ll eventually add 32GB’s soon and I think that’s all I will need for this board with the X570 chipset and my M.2 drive.

This board never posted correctly or ever really held a windows sessions. constant reboots. Funny thing is another exact same board I built using exact same parts is a workhorse. So leads me to expect this board is a bad build quality and randomly defective.

Migliore MoBo X570 Prezzo/Qualità/Prestazioni

Reviewed in Italy on February 27, 2020

Verified Purchase

Prima di tutto segnalo per la prima volta dopo quasi 10 anni di utilizzo di Amazon, la non curanza dell'imballaggio. Arriva la MoBo in una busta del corriere, senza nessuno scatolo di protezione, infatti la mobo arriva danneggiata, tanto che le viti dell'X-Clamp del Socket avevano scavato nello scatolo.. Faccio il reso ed arriva un'altra mobo, ma sempre nella busta e senza scatolo.. fortunatamente la mobo questa volta era ok. Per la prima volta 1/5 ad Amazon.

Per quanto riguarda la mobo dopo aver seguito il lancio di Zen 2 da Luglio 2019, ho analizzato praticamente tutte le mobo, i vari aggiornamenti dei bios dei vari brand, ed i potenziali problemi. Le MoBo MSi al di sotto della MEG ACE sono completamente inutili, temperature altissime (circa 110C il PCB della MoBo) e VRM non all'altezza per dare abbastanza power delivery per CPU da 3700X in poi (con 3600 e 3600X sei "OK" ma le temperature sono altissime). MSi grazie al feedback dei recensori e degli utenti introduce questo modello la UNIFY che ha un heatsink nuovo sulla sezione dei VRM ottenendo temperature migliori della MEG ACE ed ha VRM identici alla MEG ACE ed alla sorella maggiore Prestige Creation, offrendo prestazioni di altissimo livello praticamente di fascia alta. La qualità costruttiva è ottima, ed il BIOS è stabile e funziona tutto come previso, boosta tranquillamente la mia cpu, un 3900X, stesse identiche prestazioni di una Prestige Creation.
Beh perchè costa molto meno della Creation?
Pecca molto sull'I/O soprattutto quello interno SATA, dispone solo di 4 porte SATA (6 era il minimo IMHO), ed anche nel retro della MoBo è un po' scarna, e non ha la 10 Gigabit Aquantia che ha la Creation, ma "solo" una 2.5Gigabit. Siccome non necessito di una 10 Gigabit, il problema dell I/O è risolvibile riorganizzando lo storage, e per le usb semplicemente utilizzare degli hub se necessario, risparmiando molto per delle feature in più che non utilizzerei.
Credo che questa sia la scheda perfetta per qualità/prezzo/prestazioni/temperature/bios per una cpu da 3700X in poi (anche perchè con 3700X/3800X non vengono nemmeno utilizzate tutte le fasi dei VRM, ha tantissimo power delivery). L'architettura Zen2 è molto sensibile al power delivery ed alle temperature, migliori sono i VRM e le temperature, maggiori sono le prestazioni, è necessario non comprare MoBo meno care per risparmiare, la CPU non performa a dovere e si degrada subito per le altissime temperature. Segnalo altre mobo adatte a queste cpu:
ASUS TUF X570 PLUS (3600X- Max un 3700X), VRM buoni, Temperature nella norma, budget basso.
Gigabyte X570 Aorus Ultra (3600X-Max un 3700X) VRM buoni, Temperature nella norma, budget medio.
Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master (3700X in poi) VRM eccellenti, temperature eccellenti, budget alto.
MSi X570 Prestige Creation (3900X in poi) VRM eccellenti, temperature eccellenti, budget alto.

Hervorragendes Mainboard!

Reviewed in Germany on January 5, 2021

Das MEG X570 UNIFY ist ein sehr hochwertiges Mainboard, welches ohne RGB-Beleuchtung auskommt. Mich stört die fehlende RGB-Beleuchtung nicht, sondern diese ist sogar von Vorteil, da auf dem Spannungswandler-Kühler selbst keine Bauteile aufgebracht werden müssen und so die Kühlung besser gewährleistet werden kann. Diesen Vorteil bietet auch der Chipsatz-Kühler, der seine Arbeit sehr gut verrichtet. Nicht nur die Kühlung der Spannungsversorgung ist gut, sondern auch die verwendeten Komponenten. Bei den Backpanel-Anschlüssen kann man auf insgesamt acht USB-Ports zurückgreifen, wovon vier USB 3.2 Gen2 unterstützen. Des Weiteren findet drei mit Kühlern ausgestattete M.2-Slots vor und das Board bietet eine große Anzahl an Lüfter-Anschlüssen. Mein Ryzen 9 5900X läuft stabil und absolut problemlos auf dem Board. Ich kann es jederzeit weiterempfehlen! Selbstredend war die Lieferung durch Amazon gut verpackt, schnell und zuverlässig.

Schönes schwarzes Board mit einem übersichtlichen Bios. Ideal wenn man ein schwarzes Gehäuseinnenleben hat. Lüftersteuerung über Pwm oder Dc möglich. Das ist vorteilhaft bei einigen Lüftern.
Die Software vom Hersteller ist gut und aktuell.
Mit der Extreme Einstellung in der Software kann man auf eine einfache Art die Leistung gut ausreizen.
Der Chipset-Lüfter läuft bei mir auf 1.500 UPM und ist nicht zu hören. Bei 6.000 geht er ab, aber ich habe die Erfahrung gemacht, dass generell ab einer bestimmten UPM eine Steigerung verhältnismäßig einfach nichts bringt. Das gilt für jeden Lüfter. Ich bin eher ein Fan von Silent Systemen.
Über die Msi Dragon Center Software kann man die aktuellsten Treiber installieren. Das ist auch sehr vorteilhaft. Man muss nicht nach Treibern suchen und sie dann selbst vergleichen.
Wifi und Bluetooth funktionieren mit der mitgelieferten Antenne sehr gut.
Onboard Audio gut.
Bin sehr zufrieden mit der Leistung, Optik und der Software.

Beaucoup de fonctionnalité dont le wifi AX. Les températures sont maîtrisées et le bios propose beaucoup de paramètres. C’est fiable et sans RGB. Attention il faut prévoir une alimentation avec deux prises CPU 8 broches !

The package was good from outside, but from inside the pins were bend and the metal corner of the board was bend. Don't know if this board is working or not as I have not received the power supply yet so can't check.

Also please refer Asus boards, as this board doesn't have HDMI or Display port.

Perfetta per 16 core: ECCELSA

Reviewed in Italy on December 15, 2020

Abbinanata a un AMD 5950x esprime tutto il suo potenziale. La scheda madre riesce a gestire tutti e 16 core in completa scioltezza: la cpu funziona sempre al massimo regime in tutte la situazioni di utilizzo senza mai fare throtteling. Anche durante stress test prolungati i vrm rimangono sempre sotto i 50°. Completa di tutto, ventola integrata silenziosissima qualità costruttiva eccelsa, bios completissimo intiutivo e facile. Overclocking con precision boost overdrive sicuro e stabile.
Non avevo dubbi ma vedere una cpu AMD top di gamma 16 core gestita perfettamente con assoluta stabilità da davvero soddisfazione.
N.B: chi volesse abbinare un processore zen3 è richiesto un bios aggiornato perchè il pc non si avvia subito montato ma la scheda essendo munita di pulsante flashbios ELIMINA il problema basta seguire la procedura sul sito Msi.
Raccomando senza esitazioni questa Unify specie a chi ha intenzione di accoppiarla a un processore di ultima generazione Zen3.
