Customer Ratings & Reviews

Got my CPU up to 5GHz and and the UEFI BIOS is easy to use and works like a charm. Very happy with my MSI board.

Only red rgb, don’t know why the software tries to change the color, but a great board. It’s a great board if you are not trying to overachieve. With only one m.2 slot, it will go great with optane memory and a hard drive. Fan headers are limited. I found myself left with only one open by using 3 fans and a single radiator. I would use fan splitters or getting a z390 to use more fans and or m.2s.

This board is great if you're not looking to do anything too crazy. It has only 2 pci x16 slots and if you're going to use the m.2 slot it will take of one of those lanes. Keep that in mind. I'm using the onboard overclock. It works well.

Used in a new build with a core i78700k, 16 gb of corsair 3.0 ghz ram, corsair liquid cooler, corsair 750watt ps, evga 1070ti gpu, samsung evo 250gb ssd, 1tb toshiba hdd,thermaltake view 21tg case. the board was easy to instal, the included directions and board schematic are clearly written and accurate. Wired everything up, computer booted first time, installed windows 10 and ready to go. No problems since.

This motherboard helped me with my first computer build and was exactly what I wanted. It is like any other motherboard in the fact that it allows all plug-ins you need to get your computer running. It has an LED light around the border which I don’t like as it is constantly on and only the color red. To disable it, you have to download an MSI application and turn it off. Other than that, it’s a great motherboard.

Bought this board to use with intel core i7-8700, Board has done everything that it said it would do. Very pleased with the performance so far.

It looks amazing and has red lights. Easy install even though I initially thought it was too big. Works great.

Incredible price and performance, if your looking to build your own pc for games this is definitely worth it.

This is a solid mobo for the price. The only complaint I have is that there are not enough USB ports built into the I/O panel (I think 8 should be a standard - even for gaming desktops). Other than that, everything popped in easy and posted among first boot. Works great with i7 8700 and an RTX 2080. I like the non sag metal on the PCI-E slot. Be sure to update bios!

Upgraded from an AMD 990FX board to this because I switched to an intel processor. I got it on special for 110 bucks and it has performed very well so far. I love that it has an M2 slot and will be trying out that very soon.

For a first build i like it, when i go do my next build im going to be getting a much more expensive one that can hold the I9 but for what i needed it for it worked well for a cheap gamkng pc.

Great buget board for overclocking an i5 anything over that I'd get a more premium board but mo issues had an i5 8600k overclocked to 5ghz

Fantastic motherboard runs the latest you can process your i9 generation backwards compatible windows 7 and 10 drivers are well supported by the manufacture and great bios control

Bought this motherboard to upgrade from an i7 7700k to an i7 8086k. Not much else to say that it works and everything that I've installed from my previous build worked with no issues.

Works great in my new build, only issue is that when i bought it, i wasnt aware that intel Octane required RAID to be set up.

This board is absolutely gorgeous for the price it's very hard to beat. I love msi product and only use msi motherboards in my gameing builds.

I got this motherboard with a box that looked it has been mishandled but I let that go. Once I opened the box, I noticed a corner that was chipped and didn’t think it would affect the motherboard. Once I opened the CPU chip place, I installed my CPU on and cooler and ram. I installed the wiring from my pc case. I couldn’t get the motherboard to respond on the motherboard despite waiting a couple minutes. Everything was connected. I gave up eventually and thought the chipped corner was the problem. I proceeded to reinstall the black plastic piece after I installed the CPU but I accidentally broke some pins and I know it’s my fault but if I didn’t have a chipped corner I wouldn’t have had to replace the plastic thing But I’m my opinion it looks good

This board, while lacking some features of the more expensive ones is a quality for the price

Awesome product. You will love ir. Very good price also.

Upgraded this due to my streaming. It out performs the other model I had by far. Very happy with this product.
