- Very Good value! - Elmar, 12 December 2020
I have had a very good experience with this board thus far, and have not had any issues!
The board has more than enough USB ports for all my peripherals, kb and mouse, headset, webcam, ext. HDD, and my LED's at once.
The only flaw I can point out that makes it a 4 star rating is the fact that there is only 1 sys fan pin no the front of the board, and a fan hub or a molex adapter is needed to add more fans.
But otherwise I am very happy with my purchase - Great, but missing fan headers - Channing, 11 November 2020
This is a really good board. I paired it with a Ryzen 5 3400G and it runs great. The UEFI firmware is easy to use and it accepted my XMP 3000 MHz profile without issue and was stable. There is just one thing about this board - the fan headers. It only has one system fan header. Yes - that's right - just one. This means you plug in your CPU fan, and then one case fan and that's it, no more, unless you purchase a fan splitter or use a fan controller.
Overall, fantastic board, I just wish MSI would've included at least another 2 system fan headers. - Great little motherboard - Johan, 15 July 2020
This little motherboard is perfect for a budget build. MSI have always made great products, and this is no exception. Connectivity options (SATA, USB, etc) is adequate for its intended purpose.
- Great beginner Mobo - Markham, 2 July 2020
Used it for my first ever pc build, first time start-up.
- Let's just say, you get what you pay for... - Louis, 13 May 2020
I should have known better than to skimp on the motherboard's price. One system fan header means you will have to use an external adapter to actually be able to run your PC at good temperatures. Board has bad build quality, very flimsy. RAM slots are very close to the CPU, meaning there isn't much room for a big CPU cooler. At least it is very cheap, so for the price you should be satisfied. 3/5
