Pros & Cons
Pros
First time builder. Updating bios with flash bios button1. Rename the bios file to msi. Rom, and save it to the root of the usb storage device. No problems with gb or gzipped.
Cons
Tried all troubleshooting steps to no avail. Ended up returning.
Highlights

The bios is one of the better ones i’ve used.
At around $250 dollars you will pay more than some other motherboards, but its worth it knowing you're getting msi quality.
The msi z790 tomahawk wifi is a compelling option for budget-minded gamers and content creators seeking a feature-rich atx motherboard.
