- Plenty of rear I/O for a mATX board - Love having both the internal 20 pin USB3 connector and the type C front panel connector on this mobo, which means all my front I/O will be usable on my A3-mATX - Ryzen 7 5700G worked out of the box - having three display outputs is clutch (currently using DP and HDMI only) - being a PRO series board, has an amazing mostly black PCB design - MediaTek RZ616 Wi-Fi 6E + BT combo work surprisingly well. I get the full speed of 6E thanks to my Xfinity gateway. Bluetooth connections are strong and stable with no drops - MSI's BIOS is amazing, both the EZ mode and advanced mode are easy to use. Was able to enable XMP easily for my 3600 MHz, C18 RAM kit. I opted for a 2x16GB kit which worked out of the box. I want to experiment with overclocking the RAM and iGPU a bit.

Pros of this MSI product is how the installation was so very simple. Not only that but all my components worked fine upon booting up with bios update installed. Along the UI of the motherboard it was easy to understand and find what I was looking for as well.


Over engineered, Beautiful, Lighting, The best x870 MB

Pros - Strong Power Delivery With a 14+2+1 digital phase design, it supports Ryzen 9000 CPUs and maintains stability with DDR5-8000 to DDR5-8100 memory overclocking. Great for performance and overclocking builds. - Next-Gen Connectivity Offers Wi-Fi 7, 5GbE LAN, PCIe 5.0 (GPU), USB 4 Type-C, and 3× M.2 slots with effective heatsinks. Solid foundation for future-proofing. - Professional & Clean Design No RGB, subtle silver/gray heatsinksideal for workstations or minimalistic builds. - User-Friendly BIOS and Tools Features MSIs Click BIOS X, EZ Overclocking, AI-powered networking tools, and a simplified build process.

- Probably the best B850 Board - Plenty of connection. 2x Gen5 NVME Supper. Minimal Lane sharing ( Only with 3rd M.2) - Ez-Conn Switch add extra ports. Saved the day for rear fans. - Plenty of fan headers and really good VRMs.


Never fails does exactly what it says it does

- High end looking and quality. - Low profile Bluetooth and WIFI antenna with great signal strength. - M.2 fan that can be completely turned off.

7 nvme slots (5 on board + 2 with included pcie expander) Largest OC potential on the market 10gb lan port + additional 5gb port Wifi 7 receiver included 40gb USB So so many other pros (too many to list)

- Your GPU has 16 lanes no matter else you put on the board. - 5x M.2 Slots (1 Gen 5, 3 Gen 4, and 1 Gen 3 with 2 lanes) - You do lose the very bottom PCIE slot if you use that M.2 slot on the right, but you can still use the second slot, which is 1 lane of Gen 3. Which is enough for USB, Networking, or Capture Card expansion card. - Great VRM setup, handles my 7950x with ease. - Backplate - Bios is a bit older looking but is right to the point. - Fan management was quite good right out of the box. Water pump headers default to max and chasis fans default to silent based on some mobo temps, so for me was perfect and I had to do no customization. - OC settings were much easier to access here vs my X670E Aorus Master. I was able to push my 7950x a bit further with this board.

Hidden back connectors, black brushed aluminum, minimal ambient light

It has a lot of features for the price. Under stress testing this board performs flawless. It's 100% stable using t-force memory.
