This came so fast

-Stable -Plug and Play -great compatibility -good IO -easy to use bios -all m.2 slots cant be used without taking lanes from your GPU

the last 2 boards iv installed have had no problems and worked without going to bios and making adjustments. 2 easy well made board, server quality for home use and a good price from newegg.

All the bells and whistles Looks really stunning Six NVMe slots Prepared to run on custom water loop but runs just fine on air (make sure you have proper airflow) As stable as it gets Lots of type-c ports and 2 thunderbolt (plus 2 type-c headers, 2 regular A headers, and 2 USB 2.0 headers) Got it on sale <3

It was not as complicated to build with this as I thought. I followed the PDF manual, which has links to videos on installing various components. For more clarity, I found additional videos on YouTube with step-by-step building guides.

Plenty of I/O, 3 M.2 drives, PCIE5, wifi (haven't tested this yet). Quiet fan curve by default but stays cool, my 250K at 100+ watts is barely over 50, while nothing else on the board is out of the 30's. No issues applying XMP timings. The main workload I bought this for a heavily threaded Python app with a lot pillow usage and perceptual hashing limited by memory bandwidth. This is a whole lot faster than my 11700k and has been rock solid. Probably nothing to stress the 8 phase power delivery, which is fine with me!

Pretty lights Easy to understand instructions (for us lay-folk) Everything works right

--Great heatsinks; SSD and other components in an Intel I9 build are running smoothly and cool --Clear labeling --The LEDS for checking CPU, GPU, and BIOS are really helpful in the initial build trouble shooting --Great on line manual (printed manual that comes with board is out of date) --I/O panel being integrated and well constructed is a nice to have out of the way on the build

Ready to go. Accepted i5-13600 with included CMOS. Updated to most recent. Do not rename bios file to MSI.rom Turn off UEFI if you have Samsung SSD otherwise windows boot file is not recognized. Recognized 6000mhz ram after bios update.
