- Fantastic motherboard - Neels, 20 March 2017
Purchased the MSI B350 motherboard with a Ryzen CPU. Had a slight hiccup as the PCI-X is metal clad making the GPU insertion a bit difficult as it would not go in the first time round. After this problem was solved, it was smooth sailing. The board comes with onboard LED strip lightening in the colours of TEAM RED! Looks beautiful as it lights things up a bit. Ample fan connectors will ensure you have space to connect all the case fans or water coolers you could wish for. Unfortunately it features only 4 SATA ports, but does have a M.2 connector onboard that happily accepts both NVME and M.2 Sata drives, and will boot from both. Like 99% of motherboards, it includes a onboard sound codec that sounds crap, but this can be remedied with the addition of a good quality Creative Labs sound card. The board also features a USB3.1 connector at the back together with the USB Type C connector. It has 4 front USB 3 headers inside together with a few USB 2 headers as well. All in all, a very good purchase and highly recommended.
