Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

This review is for the msi review rebate program. It has the debug leds along with the code display which are crucial when building the pc. The led debug pannel makes life that much simpler.

Usb connectors are adequate for my usage. The thunderbolt port and controller are passthrough-able to my vm's. My only slight dislike of this board is the inclusion of on-board wifi.

Heavy, thick pcb, armored pci-e slot. Some of the key notes that swayed me towards this particular board vs other brands is the voltage regulator quality, ess sabre dac.

Msi unify supports 11900k/11th gen intel cpus, which supposedly will be able to run ram even faster. Overclocking features are on par with ace and its 200$ cheaper.

Small size but tough little motherboard. Amazing it has 2 m. Took me some digging to figure out the m. Plenty of m.

Cons

This thing is big, bulky, and as heavy as my boat anchor. Overall disappointing from this brand.

The biggest thing is that the pci x16 slot is too low. Only supports 60 hz or 120 hz at 1080. It also has a fail set for memory oc(only other premium mobos have this) and 6 layers for memory overclocking. Overclocking can cause voltages to spike up to... Read More

Quality

High quality, bios are stable, easy install.

Excellent build quality by feel, very heavy, thick pcb, armored pci-e slot.

This item worked amazingly for three weeks, then started getting blue screens and freezing upon restart.

Pump, cpu fan, and 6 system fan connectors around the periphery of the board.

Price

)bought her 3 months ago for 229$ on sale and its worth every penny for an oc 10900k with a 3080.

Real happy at this prime day deal.

$600+ motherboards like evga refuse to even offer an add-in card.

I bought this through amazon warehouse because it seemed like a good deal.

Packaging/appearance

The box comes with all accessories needed.

The box and its accessories were the best.

Competitiveness

This board is fantastic, the quality is much better than the previous stuff msi has been pumping out.

Good value compared to other z490 boards.

Can’t find a good deal for amd and b460 chipset dont have ram oc at the time i purchased this mobo.

I bought 2 other boards from different manufacturers and both were faulty.
