Review: Awesome - I have been using MSI for many years. I build a LOT of PC's. Some are still running after 11 years! I had an MSI 870E Tomahawk Wifi, which was a great board. i saw this Msi MPG 870E Edge and had to have it. Got it on a Prime Day deal for a great price. Swapped my AMD 9900x and M.2 and off to the races. The Bios is very similar to the Tomahawk. I flashed bios on the dining room table with a PS and latest bios. I never use Expo. I never use precision boost overdrive. I enable Memory Context Restore to bypass the annoying algorithm on boot to eliminate the 2-3 minute boots. Set the Dram timings and very importantly set the Dram Voltage manually. Fired right up. Love the fan controls. If you insist on having MAX performance set a max thermal limit. I game and most games I cap the FPS so having your PC Turbo itself to death, crash and burn, I prefer the stability. This is the best built Motherboard I have ever used. HEAVY. Heatsinks are massive and effective. Aesthetics are second to none. Stable, breaths quality, and a work of art.
Review: Great Motherboard! No regrets - This is the first build I've done in quite a while. I wanted to upgrade and build a higher end PC for video production and gaming. I picked this board in my planning to go with a 9950X3D. I was able to get a great black friday deal, so I definitely feel the value for what I got was good. However I was prepared to pay full price and don't think I would have felt any different if I would have. Like I said I it's been a while since I built a PC and my last one was an MSI, and brand recognition was a factor and I wasn't disappointed at all. Others have left reviews about set up and some issues, and as someone who hasn't built a PC in a few years, just due diligence on my part to research and plan for anything I had no major issues in set up or install. I'll admit a lot of my selection process was also aesthetic and this along with other MSI parts, this fit the bill for that too as it all looks great. Pros: Plenty of Connectivity. Inside and out. Easy Install EZ Connectors Solid heatsinks with the quick removal tabs. Cons: I wish this would have came with a paper manual or booklet, but that could just be me being old. This is more of an MSI review and not necessarily this product, but it does apply to it as well. I wish there were clear instructions or someone would have said, register all your MSI products when you take them out of their packaging and not when you are through building. Otherwise, you'll be disassembling things to get the CHK code off the serial number sticker to verify your purchase.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best High End Gaming X870E Board out there
*by P***K on November 22, 2024*

This is the third AM5 board I've owned. The other two were the X670E-E and X870E-E. The X670E-E outright did not work. Just crashed a lot with random error messages in the event viewer that didn't make any sense. The X870E-E worked, but would drop all USB connections and then reconnect which made the machine unusable for the purpose in which I purchased it for. It has been a while since I purchased an MSI board, last one was a Z270 Gaming M7. I switched to ROG products because I have a smooth brain and they looked cool. But thinking back, I've had nothing but problems. So now I'm through with ASUS and thought back to that AMAZING MSI board I purchased for my 7700K 8 years ago. Thing still works great & MSI released a BIOS update for it about 18 months ago which for a product that old is fairly amazing. So when I went back to the decision table MSI was my first choice and boy am I glad I made the move. *Improvements over ASUS AM5 Boards* -Realtek LAN instead of Intel -Qualcom Wifi instead of Intel -5gbe LAN port + a 2.5gbe instead of one 2.5gbe which is awesome because I have a 10gbe network with a NAS that can take advantage of it. -Came with a USB flash stick that has drivers and a more recent BIOS versions instead of a packet of ROG stickers and lanyard. -Weekly BIOS updates after launches (most are Beta, but nonetheless) instead of BIOS updates every 45 days. This is crucial for new product launches such as the 9800X3D. LAN was wonky when I switched from 7800X3D to 9800X3D at first. 3 days later a Beta BIOS came out that fixed it. This would not have happened with ASUS. -PCB quality of MSI board is superior and you can tell just looking at it. Traces are noticeably thicker and separated than on the ASUS boards. -Easy release, tool free M.2 heatsink covers for all slots compared to only one quick release on the more recent ASUS board and manual screws on the older ones. -Far easier to manage driver updates without OEM bloatware (MSI Center/ArmorCrate) on MSI than on ASUS. -AM5 cooler mounting bracket is of far higher quality. Even the screw threads are machined superiorly. -Has additional PCIe 8 Pin Power connector at the bottom of the board for additional board power delivery for anyone planning on installing multiple PCIEx16, PCIEx8, PCIEx4 & PCIEx1 cards. -Memory training is MUCH faster and stable -BIOS boot time is 1/4 of what the ASUS boards were even after CMOS clearing. This product and the X870E-E are direct competitors of one another. Same feature set, same IO, same color scheme, same RGB, same price. The MSI board wins on everything. If you are deciding between the two please do yourself the favor and buy this one. You might get a good ASUS board, or you might get a dud. I'm 0 for 2 with AM5. So far I've never purchased a deflective MSI board they are 2/2. Just going right to MSI from now on. Thanks MSI!
