I purchased this motherboard for my first ever build, as it included wi-fi and seemed like it would carry through the next several years of potential upgrades elsewhere. It was very easy to work with, well laid out, and has ample connectors. It is also very attractive - the shiny detailing looks great when I have all my RGB going! I had no problems whatsoever getting everything up and running, and would happily recommend this.

i love this motherboard, msi has put a lot of thought into this. There is a big range of msi boards for the x570 chipset but this one has pretty much everything you needin the box - the motherboard (duh) - 2x sata cables - ARGB extension cable - wifi antennas - 2x m.2 screws - msi case sticker - sata cable labels - driver disk - user manuals and product reg Famous youtube tech star Buildzoid himself says he would take msi over most brands in the x570 range check out his reviews on Gamers Nexus youtube channel, his videos go in deep detail into most boards, he is the reason i chose this board in particular as he outlined that, it has all of the features of boards in the 250 ish price range and for my build (gaming), way overkill, ive build using a ryzen 5 3600 and an rtx2070 , this board can handle way more than this, all the way up to the r7 3900x so the upgrade path is crazy, ill only be using one m.2 slot for now, the wifi is a godsend as i dont have a wired network in the office, im running trident z royal 3600mhz but has support for all the way up to 4400 mhzi had had a hard time choosing between this and the TUF gaming plus but in the end the looks won me over, the yellow of the tuf didn't sit with mewhat i would say to msi is (even though they can handle higher end cpus) to use better VRM to run more efficiently, but the heatsink controls them fine and like i say, more than what i need. i was worried about the chipset fan but what i didnt know is it turns off under low load but is slightly audible when blasting it, its also used for the 1st m.2 slotonboard wifi isn't wifi6 but 90% of users probably don't have a router capable of this anyway and people that do need 100s of mbps to truly use it overall, i'm very happy with my purchase A** for MSI
Awesome board for the price :)

I havent built a PC for many years, but when the new AMD Ryzens were released, I thought the time was right. I looked at all of the available boards, and decided to go for an X570 to give me the most up to date options for upgrades and overclocking. Of all of the X570 boards, I chose this one as it has inbuilt wifi, M2 heat sink and above all, very reasonably priced. I can honestly say, the board has not disappointed in the slightest. The inbuilt wifi is dual band, and is strong enough to connect without the antennas attached (although they are attached) and it connects at full speed to my 200 mbps wifi. The USB is up to date, with lots of options. The nice feature is the BIOS flash update can update the bios directly from a USB without any OS or going into the BIOS.I can honestly say I am delighted with the motherboard really easy to use / install, lots of up to date features including the fastest M2 drive options too and I would recommend this to anyone.
