10/10 great mobo for the price

Steven Mannion

December 2020

Only one DIMM slot working.

Harold

December 2020

Amazing value, thank you for providing a valuable service.

Alexander

December 2020

Very happy with my purchase. I was on a really tight budget and this fit perfectly. The only downside of the board is that it only has two ram slots and that makes it not that great for future upgrades. Other than that everything is perfect!

Jakub Rosinski

Decent entry-level motherboard. Only has one system fan header which is very annoying.

Marcin Wolnicki

Great budget mobo from MSI, Support for everything you need to get going including an NVMe m.2 slot which I'd highly reccomend utilising with a min 256GB m.2 SSD for the OS drive.

Good board for beginner builds - compatible with 3rd gen Ryzen CPUs out of the box. Be aware that larger GPUs will block the 4-lane PCIE express (such as for WIFI adaptors).

John from Wallasey

March 2020

Thanks CCL, I was not sure which mobo to buy for a new Ryzen 5 chip but the friendly service at CCL pointed me in the direction of this awesome motherboard. Very happy.

Good board robust construction. Lacking a few things . Only 1 fan header . gpu blocks 2nd pci slot. Easy to use bios. Simple cpu and ram overclock.
