Pros & Cons
Pros
X570 tomahawk is a huge improvement over recent amd tomahawks and a fitting send off to our beloved am4. I love that there is enough clearance between the ram and cpu for a hyper 212 and then built in faceplate makes my job easier. The heatsink/covers... Read More
Msi bios 1. Update bios and all drivers including chipset. Booted just fine the first time, setting xmp profiles and configuring the bios is really easy. I was able to use the new chipset without a bios update on startup.
It is similar in spec and supports the amd ryzen 9. Gb ethernet. The amp worked flawlessly setting 3200mhz and timings cl14. Supports 128gb of ddr4 ram.
Black + charcoal color scheme. The fans and rgb lighting are pretty slick also. If you can grab it on sale, it makes it even more of a no brainer.
This also includes a built-in wifi, a ton of usb ports, and a pre-installed io shield. The only down side for me is it only has two m. Gen 1 on the front panel alone, dual m.

Shipping
Wifi has been super fast and never seemed to have an issue.
Packaging/appearance
The only thing i made sure to install was the audio driver and its control panel, other than that it basically worked right out of the box.
Competitiveness
I have this paired with a ryzen 5 5600x and was able to use the new chipset without a bios update on startup.
I've paired this board with a ryzen 5600x and g.
Note: i had to flash the bios to get it to work with a ryzen 7 5800x.
So i started off building this mobo in a cyberpower pre-built case.
