    Fulfilling its role

    I was looking for a CM to switch to DDR5 without too much fuss: contract fulfilled.

    There are enough USB and M.2 ports for my needs. The components on the card are always good quality from MSI, so that's no surprise.

    It works

    Used to upgrade my PC. A bit oversized for my use: no need for overclocking, and I hadn't realised I needed 2 connections for the power supply, so I also changed my power supply. Otherwise, I had no trouble mounting it or flashing the bios. Mounted with a 14th generation i5, and with my old graphics card and hard drives: no hardware recognition problems. Wifi/bluetooth work.

    It's about time for a change!

    Naturally, I'm pleased. How could I not be, switching from a 2011 motherboard!
    What an evolution!
    The M2 SSD slots ... C'est la vie?
    Whether it's for accessing and writing during video editing or data installation or transfer, or even saving space.

    In terms of looks, I like the style with the different white/grey buttons. It's a nice change from the old CM.

    As for the packaging, I'd have liked a few pages of instructions on the rear connectors, but you can find everything on the net.

    Finally, as always, I am satisfied with the LDLC service. Offer, shipping etc..
