  • The best motherboard in terms of quality-price.
The media could not be loaded. "My rating is 4.9/5.0. This is my opinion about the motherboard, and it's 100% value for money. It offers many benefits for being so economical, starting with its micro-ATX size and a price of US$69.89, which is quite affordable. As mentioned before, for what it offers, including the fact that it has 2 DDR4 RAM slots but supports up to 4600MHz, meaning you can use good RAM without limiting its speed. If you're wondering, the maximum speed indicated is due to the processor, as a Series 5000 processor utilizes the RAM speed capacity, ensuring no freezing or speed issues due to RAM. I highly recommend it, and it's worth it for its quality and price." ... show more

  • Reasonable price and stable motherboard
For a price of $70, it is the cheapest AM4 MB I could find on that day and it works as intended and stable as such ... No complaint so far as it boots up everyday and run like 12 hrs per day for work PC... Also, not to do anything about O/C anyway... This is an upgrade from a self-built AMD FX-6300 (9 years running) to this AMD Ryzen 5 3600, 32GB memory, 1TB m.2 NVMe card, and an old AMD Radeon 9270 graphic card... It is OK to boot up under 15 sec in Windows.... ... show more

  • It just works. If deliberating, go with this one.
After days of fiddling with a new Asrock motherboard that turned out to be faulty in several ways out of the box, I replaced it with this one. It literally just works. Plug and play. BIOS is easy to navigate, and it plays nice with my Ryzen 7 2700x. The PCI-E slot is in a great spot where it won't be blocked by the GPU so you can install a wifi card there if you wish. One thing to be aware of is that it only has 1 case fan header, which I didn't know before purchasing, but isn't the fault of the motherboard itself since I would've noticed if I looked closer before buying. I have a fan splitter coming in that should remedy this. This is the third MSI motherboard I've used in a build, and they have never failed me. This brand is a mark of quality. If you're stuck between multiple, go with this one. ... show more

  • Arrived very late. But i love it!
I love it. Mosfets VRM are kinda weak, but with good airflow your good. It is already BIOS upgraded for 5th gens, so your good too. I put a Ryzen 7 3700X and was told it can throttle, but dont listen to anybody but professionals, i was told im good not to worry. Its a beautiful Mobo and comes with everything you need to set you up, including an awesome decal. MSI all the way for me. Gracias amigos. ... show more

  • ESPECTACULAR
Gente, recomendadisimo, no se mucho de pcs pero mi hermano si, el es ingeniero de sistemas , y me lo recomendó. El rendimiento es de locura, obviamente deben elegir bien los demás elementos como las ram, o el ssd. En términos de conectores, tiene solo una entrada hdmi para una pantalla, si desean conectar otra pantalla, tendrán que usar la otra ranura DVI 24pines + 1, no trae ranura Vga. Cuenta con 4 ranuras usb 3.0 y dos ranuras usb 2.0. La entrada ethernet para el Internet y los demás normales como sonido, micrófono, y para mouse y teclados con entrada antigua, si es que los tienen, de lo contrario pues las entradas usb. Recuerden que ninguna pc tiene antena de Internet wifi, por eso toca con cable ethernet, o sino una excelente alternativa en mi caso es tener una pequeña usb extensor de red, es simplemente conectarla a un puerto usb y funciona (tengo la MERCUSYS MW300UM), actúa excelente y la red nunca se cae. ... show more

  • Failed to boot
First thing I noticed box was missing the driver DVD/CD. Figure Windows 11 install would take care of this since it installs latest driver (something I previously saw). Tried to use the onboard HDMI port for monitor. Mother board LED showed failure with VGA. Installed graphics card to get past this in case it was an issue with bios setting. At startup motherboard LED showed VGA, cpu and memory checkeOK. However motherboard LED showed failed at boot. Did usual to reseat everything - no go. Probably a bad motherboard. Most likely a recycled/return item. In any case did return process. Got another motherboard with enclosed DVD/CD. ... show more
