This is a feature packed board for the price. I had a very particular set of ports/features that I wanted and this board had all of them. Easy to put in my mid tower case. Plenty of room and USB hookups for days. This also has some features you generally don't get on a board for around 100% like TPM. I don't need this since I run linux ( o yeah it says only windows 10 and that is a lie. You can install linux as long as it is from a CD > with a SATA connection). The USB's are disabled during install until the drivers are installed unless you run win10 there is an option to enable some pre install drivers that will only work during the win10 install. But if you use the CD you get in Linux just fine.
m.2 slot works beautifully with a Samsung 970 Evo in place. Lightning quick since this supports NVMe on the slot. ( with the m.2 in place the SATA 1 connector is disabled however) which is fine since most people don't use all the SATA connectors on the board in the first place. I do have several hard drives but that doesn't matter since I have an expansion card for one of my PCIe lanes that gives me more SATA ports.
The BIOS menu is easily one of the best I have ever used. Quick and simple to navigate around and just looks good. Have no complaints about it.
Since I did my research ahead of time I knew what to expect. I wasn't really surprised by anything with this board. For a non overclock board with some great features at this price point it is hard to beat. Definitely recommend.
From the opening of the packaging the experience was incredibly different. The collateral material was packaged neatly, the instructions were written in a size that you could actually read and the aesthetics of the board are so much better. The board installed without a hitch and posted on the second try. The CPU lock under the cooling fan was undone and MSI's EZ debug LEDS showed the fault. I was able to reseat the CPU and eureka.. I had liftoff!
Essentially you can run this motherboard stock out of the box and you can also tweak it. If you are looking to serious overclocking you should consider other options.
I seem to be getting really good benchmarks vs similar chipsets and processors (I5-8400) with 16gb DDR4 2666.
I am extremely delighted with this setup and would buy another MSI board when I decide to upgrade.
I highly recommend this board to anyone who would like a good gaming experience with out going broke. And for you non gamers, this works well for your purposes too.
I paired the motherboard with an 8th Gen i5 8400 1151 CPU and 16GB of Corsair Vengeance 2666Mhz RAM. All dropped in and worked perfectly. No real issues, except my Geforce GTX 960 came dangerously close to one of the heat spreaders on the mobo - just barely clearing the top of it.
The I/O shield is high quality, but included components came up short. There were no motherboard risers included - only two SATA cables and a user manual which is was at least well laid out.
I haven't had the need to use the on-board diagnostic LED's, but they should come in handy the next time a component fails.
The WORST part about this motherboard is that the networking port did not have the necessary drivers in the BIOS from the factory meaning I had to use a separate computer to go to MSI's site to download the Networking driver. This was really annoying considering I had already done this process PRIOR to update the BIOS to version 7B22v28 (the most recent.)
In my mind it is foolish to ship something like a motherboard without something so simple at Networking drivers. I really started thinking I had a defective board initially, but the fact that the light was blinking told me the hardware was functioning. Once the Ethernet port was up and running I was able to download other drivers and update Windows.
It should also be said that with this motherboard I did not need to do anything with Windows. No re-licensing or re-installing windows. Not even so much as a pop-up. I kept all my same hardware, yet changed the motherboard, RAM, & CPU which I thought for sure would cause Windows to need re-activation but it did not.
The LED's on the board are there if you're into that sort of thing, but it would be nice if there were a hardware button on the board to disable for those of us who are not . Otherwise I guess you'd have to download MSI's Mystic Light 3 just to be able to change it off.
All in all great board for the money, really well built and solid support online via drivers and software. If not for the Ethernet drivers being missing from the get go.
