- expensive with useless vrm fan and argb features.

Only minor complaint is that it's a bit pricy $500.

Shipping

No spdif out :c not even the 3 pin connectorthe delivery took ages because seller didn't ship my product for weeks

Packaging/appearance

This msi meg z790 motherboard was packaged in its own branded boxhandle carefully because the board has weight.

Included in the box is an msi usb thumb drive with driver and utility downloads .

Competitiveness

Also for its 10 layer pcb which allows more stable ddr5 frequency, and it allows higher speeds than competitors.

Of course, this is probably only because the motherboards are so similar, both msi z790 models.

It will also drop pcie 1 to x8 instead of x16.
