Good PC
A good PC, but it has some weaknesses when it comes to refreshing the image (lags), and is a bit noisy. In addition, it shows the list of hard disks on start-up, which is useless. For a new PC, I'm a bit disappointed.

A good PC, but it has some weaknesses when it comes to refreshing the image (lags), and is a bit noisy. In addition, it shows the list of hard disks on start-up, which is useless. For a new PC, I'm a bit disappointed.
Bios easy to configure, fairly uncluttered board. installation of a SE90 peerless black thermaltake cooler, no problem with memory sticks.
The motherboard is perfect and lives up to all my expectations! I recommend it!
I had a start-up problem but all I had to do was Flash the bios and everything was back in order!
Positive points: Good value for money. Clear assembly instructions in the online manual. The MSI drivers install automatically once you've launched Windows. The MSI BIOS is quite different from competitors, but it's fairly easy to choose the RAM profile and set the fans in the BIOS.
Negative points: I couldn't install Windows over Wi-Fi when I first launched it, so I had to connect it over Ethernet and install the Wi-Fi driver afterwards. The I/O shield (metal plate with the USD outputs etc) is really cheap and the connectors are never perfectly aligned.
