MSI MPG Z590 GAMING CARBON WIFI Motherboard ATX with MSI MPG CORELIQUID K240 CPU AIO Cooler '240mm Radiator, 2.4'' LCD Waterblock with TORX 3.0 fan, 2x 120mm TORX 4.0 ARGB PWM Fan, MSI Center Support'

Bought this when it advertised for £259, seemed a fair price compared to other outlets. The card came in time, packaging and accessories was as expected and of good quality. I did not do a whole lot of research before buying it and my requirements was pretty straight forward, needs to support the Intel 10th gen CPU, needs to support RAM at a decent speed and have integrated WiFi (because I am lazy). The motherboard does all of this, installation was straight forward and the booklet it came with clearly identified front-panel connectors so no surprises really all good. And the BIOS software was pretty easy to use and overclocking CPU and Memory is done in less than a minute and it has been stable and without problems so farI only gave it 4 out of 5 stars because 2 of the pins in the CPU slot was bent (packaging was not broken or tampered with so I assume it came out of the factory that way), i bent them back with a very thin knife (risky move but I did not want to return and wait for a replacement) and it worked fine so I "got away with that one" and also the WiFi signal is not as strong as the old motherboard i replaced it with.All in all a pretty good buy, there are a number of LED functions that I will never use but you can turn them off in the BIOS so no worries.

I need to raise a support ticket with MSI because this sound is almost like a worn out HDD. Squealy, squeaky sounds especially when either the GPU or SSD's are on load. I don't think it's the GPU because it was prev installed on another machine and fine.I also ruled out the PSU (Which was replaced by EVGA) so clearly that wasn't the cause so there's two left, the SSDs (NVME Rockets from Sabrent) or the Mobo, and a quick google shows me this is a common VRM issue with some manufacturers. So will contact MSI about this, but I'll be honest, the board looks OK when turned on, but the design layout is poor, most of the heatsink by the VRM is covered by a rear fan, also no leds when the PC is in standby, so kind of defeats the point of having fancy lighting.

Solid base for any one wanting to build an high end gaming pc.Arrived in quick time as always from amazon.Love the carbon effect and the subtle rgb lighting which can be changed to your liking useng the mystic light app or off completely if you desire.Chose this motherboard over others as it was reasonably priced and supported the 10th gen Intel processor that I was wanting in my build. Plus having WiFi connectivity too.Bios is straight forward for changing parameters when overclocking.Excellent quality, perfect for everything I need for my build. Best in the market for price/functionality cannot fault it.

As I'm in the process of building my pc setup I haven't fully tested it yet but I will be soon i am not happy due to it getting shipped with no packaging or wrapping and no seal very easy to open and access not discreet at all plus i seen a small dent in the box which put me off a bit im assuming it got dropped or thrown i was about to return it incase I didn't work but It does have a 2yr warranty so my worry is aside otherthen that inside the box everything looked alright.

First build and this motherboard made it easy. Lots of options for fans, memory graphics cards(if you're lucky at the moment). Great options and the OS is simple and really helpful to monitor your system when in use.

Excellent motherboard. It has space for two M.2 SSDs Top port is PCIE 4.0 compatible with Samsung 980 Pro and 11th gen Intel CPU'S. Do not use first 2 sata ports if booting OS from M.2 as bandwidth is shared and will cause a long boot.

The build quality of this board is top notch. Feels premium but not to expensive. Would recommend for intel i9.

Great gaming MOBO - Highly recommendBuilt in SSD heat sinks are a nice touch. Optical port for audio is also nice extra to have.
