Caught on FIRE
Unboxed the board and set up my build. Pushed the power button and poof sparks, smoke, fire. One of the capacitors under the military cooler burned up. Luckily for me it did not damage anything else. Had to go out and buy an new board, not MSI, and now all works great. I may just be unlucky with this board. First and last time I use MSI.

I love MSI
Nothing bad to say! Running 6 months strong!! I really like the onboard digital display, for temp, but wish it had an extra digit for displaying Fahrenheit. Didn't take long to get used to Celsius though ...

Fine, but the RAID controller is poor
As a motherboard, in general, it performs admirably. However, if you are expecting a quality RAID controller integrated with it, you will be disappointed. Recovering from a failed disk is a nightmare. You can not add a replaced drive to the array via the RAID BIOS interface, you have to use RAIDxpert in Windows, and the program is wonky at best. If you're willing to trust your RAID to something that can be called wonky, it's a fine motherboard otherwise.

I built kind of a mish mash computer with this and a few new parts then old parts from an older computer, this MoBo is great, and especially if you're on a budget get it, it's well worth the price
