I upgraded to this motherboard after purchasing a Ryzen 5 3600 and, man, does this board work incredibly well.
This board was recommended to me by a large Youtube channel and I think he knows his stuff.
PROS:
1. Easiest installation ever. The motherboard instructions are great for any first time builders, or you can watch many of the MSI sponsored build guides on Youtube.
2. This motherboard came Ryzen 3000 ready out of the box, and for only $5 more than a non-max version, it's very much worth it, and it even comes with a Bios flashback button anyways.
3. Plenty of fan headers; would be very hard to run out of space for fan headers.
4. Pre-marked "No-standoff" zones on the motherboard. These spaces do not have places for standoffs and I appreciate that they marked them so you don't stab your motherboard with standoffs. They've managed to save space by doing this to allow more features on the board as well.
5. Plain old looks. No fancy LEDs but I don't need that. Very well put together and it's aesthetically pleasing to me.
6. Extremely simple software and BIOS. Software was super easy to navigate for drivers, and the BIOS was easy to use. OC'd my RAM very quickly and with no issues.
CONS:
1. Nothing much besides the motherboard seems to be slightly bigger than other full ATX boards. Just make sure you have good case clearance since mine was close, but fit fine in an mATX case.
- Buy this board if you have the $100 for it, MSI has great customer support, easy software, and sturdy boards.
This board states it is compatible with Ryzen 3 series CPU's out of the box, I can verify this as my Ryzen 5 3600 booted up without issue and no driver updates were needed. The locations for the ports on the board are fairly well thought out, the only thing I would like to see is more fan headers but luckily my cooling fans also had a plug to directly wire to the power supply. Downside to this is you lose fan control but that is not an issue for me as my fans are static rpm.
Cons:
The bios boot time for this board is extremely slow. I would guess about 10-15 seconds for the board to post and boot the computer. While not a deal breaker it is definitely an annoyance. Good news is that MSI has addressed this and released an updated firmware that resolves this issue.
I would recommend this motherboard for budget builds or PC builders that do not care for all the flashy RGB and RGB controller components. This has been installed for over three months of daily use and I have not had one issue with this motherboard.
You will notice in the pictures there is an RTX 2060 GPU, unfortunately two weeks after purchase this card was freezing and failing. I made the switch to a RX 5700 and do not regret that decision one bit. The RX 5700 is much more stable, costs less and benchmarks up there with the RTX 2070.
