As the name says MSI Gaming Plus works well for gaming. I'm using this MB that is upgradeable to faster AMD CPUs. Currently using Destiny 2 game with 16GB ram and a 2070 GPU with good game playability. I recommend this MB.

Good Board for a Good Price

Honestly I have no clue what others are talking about voltage issues and ability to supply adequate power to the CPU. I got this board and flashed the BIOS due to installing a 5800X and it's been perfect thus far. Has PCIE4, has Rebar for GFX Card, has plenty of USB Ports, and even has a little RGB (although the RGB is too weak to notice. The overall performance has been on point and voltage and temps are 0 concern. I have an EVGA SuperNova GA 850 Watt modular Power Supply and overclocking works fine. XMP Profiles worked fine. I idle between 30 to 40 degrees and never exceed 75 under load with a 5800x. The negative reviews appear to be from people whom just don't know how to build and configure a computer.

Great board for the price, no qualms.
Paired successfully with a Ryzen 5 3600.
I would definitely buy again.
I haven't had any problems thus far.
I recommend completely.
MSI is a highly respected brand, great value-feature ratio.
What are you waiting for?
Cheers!

OK, let's say this up front. This board doesn't have every feature under the moon. I particularly would have liked integrated Bluetooth.
If you decide to buy this board anyway like I did, I can say it's great. The BIOS menu great and the MB will recognize wireless mouse/keyboard and the BIOS GUI works no problem. Easy to find and change setting in the BIOS, there's even a search function.
There's a small oddity about how the temperature and voltage is controlled on 3rd generation Ryzen. At first I was mad thinking it was the MB's fault. However, after a bunch of reading, I'd say it's likely a combination of being a new chipset and the fact that Ryzen 3rd gen runs a little hotter than previous generations. I did a little fiddling in the BIOS and was able to tone down the voltage spikes a bit.
Performance is solid. There's a lot of fuss about the integrated fan, but in my experience it's off most of the time and only occasionally spins up so it's not likely to wear out too soon.

Product Failed

I really shouldn't blame the manufacturer for the failure of this motherboard, because when I opened the box, the cardboard boxing material inside was quite loose, but I just thought this was due to shipping and handling. When the board wouldn't work, I noticed the board battery was all smudged with greasy like fingerprints. I am pretty sure this board had been returned and then sold to me as brand new.
I replaced it with the MSI 570 Edge board and the cardboard packing inside the box was tight and there were no fingerprints on the board battery. The new board is works great.

I usually always use Asus, decided to MSI a chance. I installed with Ryzen 3700x and I must say it runs great and feels like a good solid MB. I have a HAF 932 full tower that I removed my old hardware from and reinstalled my new components in without a hitch. Software updates are a breeze with Dragon center software, bios flash using mflash was flawless.....I am a believer in MSI....I even bought a RTX 2070 super which is amazing!

This was my first PC build and I selected this motherboard for its great combination of price and features. This has everything you need for a high end gaming or workstation build. No problems so far, and MSI has been great with bios updates, regularly improving performance. Comes with everyhing you need, and the included guide is super helpful for a first timer. Will wholeheartedly recommend this for anyone looking for a low price, no frills X570 board that can still run a Ryzen 7.

high performance per dollar. Chipset fan can be loud, obviously ample cooling is important for every aspect of a Pc build.

Great MOBO for the 3700x

This MOBO is the perfect match for my new 3700X. Incredibly easy to install into my new build, and the user manual does a great job of explaining everything you need to know. It allows PCIE4.0 access to my CPU and eventually my 3080 GPU once I get ahold of one, and the M2 NVME SSD slot is stupid fast. Very satisfied.

Good motherboard. Been a while since I’ve built a PC. The package included the mounting screws for an PCIe SSD. Initially placed my two sticks of RAM in slots one and three. Turns out it needed to be in slots two and fours. Should have read the instructions. Overall the install was a breeze.

It works with both 2nd and 3rd gen Ryzen CPUs which is pretty cool. It also has a good number of ports too. And also the chipset has a fan which helps cool it for overclocking.

Bought this new from Best Buy for the new Ryzen 5600x. It did not come pre-flashed or ready for the new gen ryzen chips out of the box. It requires you to flash it with working USB 2.0 and a bios from the manufacturer site to be renamed properly.
Good motherboard but price was kind of steep. I bough it because it was kind of one of those emergent cases.

I had previous MSI gaming mb for Intel processor, this one is for AMD. They are not disappointed, very stable board but I have to remind anyone that wants to buy it, you need a 8-pin and a 4-pin ATX 12v cables plus the normal 24-pin ATX mb power cable otherwise this is a great mb.
