    Well made with many features an intermediate PC builder would value
    This is my 4th PC build, all of them had MSI motherboards. This is the first with the attached I/O shield - what a great feature!. Had no issue with the CPU (I7-9700k) or Windows and the Bios since the Bios version was from April 2019.Toughram 16gb at 3200 worked flawlessly; all I had to do was turn on XMP on main Bios screen (one button). The Bios screens are easy to follow. Have 2 2TB Samsung Pro SSDs, MSI 2060 Super X GPU, 3 RGB fans, Corsair AX 1000 PSUBecause I have a board made in May, the Driver/Utility disk was a bit out of date so went to MSI website to get latest version of Dragon Center etc so Mystic Lights would recognize my MSI GPU. Also the Lan did not work until I loaded the Driver from the disk. The main GPU slot has "steel Armor" which I value since I use a very heavy GPU. RAM slots are also "steel Armor"There are so many fan headers. Had a couple of front panel cables which were just long enough to connect to their headers on the board (may be more about the case than the board). I spent more time getting the RGB lights functional than any hardware item. I put the board into a Cooler Master H500P Mesh so the Pro Carbon and gunmetal case really looks sharp together.

    Great MOBO for the price!!! The Motherboard itself was easy to install with the directions being quite detailed.
    Pros:
    Easy install
    Nice, subtle RGB
    Two M.2 slots (of which I used both)
    Lots of fan headers for all my fans in my Lian-Li O11 dynamic case
    UFEI interface is great and easy to use
    Overclocks my Intel i7- 9700k easy to 4.7 ~5.0ghz
    Great BIOS flash feature
    Cons:
    The pre installed i/o shield is nice, but it did not really "slot" into the i/o shield slot on my O11 dynamic
    I am not a fan on the white LED's that light up where the ram sticks are slotted (maybe that's just nitpicky)

    Overall this board looks great, functions great and runs all my stuff perfectly! I would reccomend this board to someone looking for a board with a i7-9700k!
