MSI X370 XPOWER GAMING TITANIUM Amd Ryzen X370 Ddr4 Vr Ready Hdmi USB 3 Atx Gaming Motherboard

Not too long ago I purchased an MSI GP72 series thin and light 17" gaming laptop and was extremely satisfied with it, excellent graphics in a portable package. I later purchased the Oculus Rift and found that my beloved laptop barely missed the compatibility specs to run VR - I tell this story because it led me into the adventure of a lifetime...Building my very own desktop with the new AMD Ryzen 7 1800x. I was about to purchase a motherboard from a competitor because it was so highly rated, but a friend who recently did his build (and inspired me to do mine) told me that if he could do it over again, he would have chosen MSI over the giga-competitor. That's some of the best advice I have ever received...Installation: I'm computer savvy but it has been over 10 years since I built a computer, so I was nervous - but following the included quick guide, I had installed my Ryzen 7 1800x, and two eight gigabyte sticks of crucial vengence memory, and before I knew it I was placing the board into the case (mid tower CoolerMaster MasterBox 5). A few turns of a screw driver later and I'm closing up our patient and getting ready for first boot. Cross your fingers!First boot: AMAZING! I cannot believe that I nailed the installation on the first shot. The computer posts and the bios pops up - and let me tell you the Bios is unlike any I have ever seen before. The interface is graphical and it really is way more intuitive than I expected. It even offers an automatic Overclock feature that left my jaw agape.Pros: Rugged design, simple installation, and extremely easy and intuitive bios and features. I had windows installed in under 10 minutes.Cons: None, except of course the new x470 is coming soon, and I'm so impressed with this motherboard I will undoubtedly buy the next gen when it arrives. Also, in order to be entered into a longshot sweepstakes to probably not win more MSI products, according to the official rules, I have to make the following untrue statement: I am writing this review to enter into the MSI Reward Program. Now that I've said that, I can tell you honestly and with my whole heart that I mean everything I have said about this motherboard, and in fact had to come back an edit it to include that statement. It's really stupid, and it's not true, nor have I been influenced in any way by promotion or any compensation of any kind. - but maybe I'll get lucky and win a stuffed animal dragon! lolFinal thoughts: I'm a big MSI fan, and they've earned it through great customer service and warenty and just overall feature and performance of every one of their products that I have used so far. Do yourself a favor, and even if you choose a different model, choose MSI - a decision you will never regret, and that's my word.

The media could not be loaded. Technical:Beautiful Motherboard and a pretty easy overclocker. My R5 1600 has had a fabulous time in this X370 board, and paired with a liquid cooler, I can push a little over 4.0ghz even with a Gen 1 Ryzen 5 1600 (about 4.2 max) [in case you don’t know, Gen 1 Ryzens are known to have trouble with single core OCing]. The M2 cooler is great, and I don’t actually mind t being by the PCIe slots, it doesn’t bother me. Otherwise, it only has 2 USB 2.0’s, 5 3.1’s, and a Type C. I’ve always liked MSI for giving better port to price ratio than Asus. I got this board in the Carbon Box for 125 new, and it beats any board for that price imo.LED/Look:Stunning. RGB lighting with 17 customizable effects on the MSI logo (bottom right), the GAMING PRO logo (top left), and two sides (top right and left). The Rainbow setting is my favorite, and more and more products are becoming compatible with Mystic Light, MSI’s RGB ecosystem. My InWin Polaris fans look great with the MoBo. I believe there are 4 to 5 4 pin fan headers, and obviously 3.0/2.0 and all the other necessary bells and whistles, so you’re set on ports (I doubt you’ll need any internal splitter).Overall:Great board, and easy to OC even for newcomers. If you are blinded by the RGB craze (like someone that’s definietly not me), and like MSI, this board is for you. X370 is pretty great for all Ryzen CPU’s

Pros: (after 6 months of heavy usage)Set up with latest BIOS (v.7A32v1C). OS Windows 10 Pro. Installed latest Chipset, USB drivers, etc. Running 2X m.2 Samsung EVO 960 500 GB SSDs with 6 TB WD NAS HDDs. 32 GB Corsair Vengeance 3200 DDR4 ram. Went straight to 1.35V. and copped a stable 4.1 gig Overclock immediately on a Ryzen 5 1600X CPU cooled with Corsair Hydro Series H60 waterblock and backed up with a pair of Noctua 120 mm Fans, temps never get above 40 deg C. Windows boots in under 8 secs and runs smooth as butter. With a Radeon R9 290 Graphics Card plus an NVidia Quadro 4000 Graphics card for my CAD 3D rendering over 6 cores and 12 threads, I achieve amazing graphics capability. All games graphics max out at Ultra settings and its rare to get below 100fps. Whats NOT to love here! This setup is a BEAST!! This is my fourth build in as many years and Overclocking has never been this easy.So far no cons.

La placa cumple con las características necesarias para un usuario bajo o medio, si eres un entusiasta del oc requerirás una mejor MB,tengo un ryzen 5 1600 funcionando a 3.7 ghz con un voltaje de 1.35PROS:Muy buena para el usuario Medio rozando el altoLos disipadores son de buena calidadLa Bios se actualiza constantemente y no tuve ningún problema en realizar oc desde la biosEl perfil A-XMP y Try it es perfecto para los usuarios principiantesBastantes puertos PWM para los ventiladoresCONTRAS:Algunas herramientas de sotware son bastante inestables,La estética no es la mejor para los usuarios exigentesSolo cuenta con led blanco que ilumina la parte trasera de la pólizaNo cuenta con botón de clear cmos,si no arranca la pc es necesario quitar la pila por unos minutos.El chip de audio es mas básico que el de sus competidores.En general es una gran placa si la encuentras en menos de 3000 pesos,en el caso que quieras invertir un poco mas te recomendaría la gigabyte aorus k5 que estéticamente es bastante mejor aunque las funciones son muy parecidas.

Awesome motherboard from MSI... It has many features like overclocking, gaming boost, USB 3.1,much more... With Red LED dancing line audio features... Which makes the motherboard beautiful when view it through the side mirror window of my Gaming Pc Cabinet...I would suggest this motherboard if anyone wants to build a good Gaming pc... To know more about this motherboard kindly Google it and YouTube... Really fantastic I'm very happy buying it... Thanks to amazon and the seller... Price is also so competitive and very reasonable to buy it...

I have been most happy with this motherboard. I bought it to go with a Ryzen 1800x, Team Group Dark Pro 3200MHZ 16GB ram kit and a NZXT Kraken x62 cpu cooler. The first thing I did was update the BIOS to the latest version. I had an ADATA SX8000NP NVME drive that I wanted to install windows on. Initially the NVME drive was not detected by the bios but as soon as I flashed it to update it, it was detected. My ram kit also booted to 3200MHZ the first time I set the xmp profile for it which was also nice. I recommend installing the MSI gaming app for it to control all of your RGB/case lighting and MSI Live Update 6 to easily install all of the latest and necessary drivers for the motherboard/chipset.I have found all of the software easy to use and had no hardware issues plus the board looks stunning. Sadly I am still waiting on my new gpu so I have to make do with my old HD6950 for now. I have included a picture below but my smart phone camera does not do it justice. In some reviews I also saw people complain about slow boot times. My system boots from power off >>>> windows desktop in 13.2 seconds which is wickedly fast compared to my old system with just a mechanical hard drive. As a nice added feature the fastest ports on the I/O also have red LED's inside them which I thought was a neat touch.

Buon prodotto bios intuitiva della msi. Bisogna aggiornare la bios utile. Ho dovuto cambiare il prodotto una volta nn so perché era andata ed era in garanzia e l’ho cambiata.
