    I greatly appreciate tear downs and explanations like this. This is the board I'm looking at getting so it was very informative to know what to expect.

    Really enjoyed the video, very entertaining with all your knowledge, you sold me the board, you got a new sub.

    Wow, what a nice presentation of this board. Second to none, you have so much knowledge and what a nice motherboard. I just ordered the board.

    I am committed to a board of this ilk when I build my next rig. This is the sort of overbuilt, carefully crafted board that will carry me into the next decade of gaming. Great video.

    Great detail content. Buildzoids videos are good but he only covers the vrm and repeats himself over and over, you covered the entire board on the same time. Great job

    Love your in depth video mate!! I hope that you will be doing this exact thing on the Raptor Lake Z790 ACE board too, I have one coming next week with a 13900k, can't wait to get my hands on it and play around. Tinkering is so fun on these boards :)

    id like to see an indepth bios video for this board, as you mentioned. i just built a system with this, and iv gone deeper into the bios on this system than any other to date, so id love to hear what a more seasoned user has to say about it.

    Excellent coverage going over all the specific chips on the board. This is my favorite X670e board by far. Unfortunately, it seems really hard to track one down.

    the best thing about this board is that its existence allowed me to grab a NOS X570S mobo for a steal. renesas baby

    Nice board, really torn between this one and the Gigabyte X670E AORUS XTREME eATX.

    Hi Steve, unfortunately I can not finde any documentation if the m.2 Xpander Card can be used in the PCI_E3 slot when using only one ssd on the card. Would be great to know, cause I don't want to have PCI_E1 at x8. Also the cooling of the VGA would be improved I guess when there is no card in PCI_E2. Cheers Dirk

    Looking forward to a bios guide for this one. Haven't used an MSI board in about a decade and their bios guide pdf adds no extra detail at all.

      @GSP-76 Před rokem

      AM5 isn't that much different than AM4..same stuff like PBO, Curve optimizer, offset voltages, etc. MSI BIOSes aren't bad but they really do lack more fine tuning that you find on Asus motherboards.

      It's cool, he does great work. I think I met him a while ago. There are a bunch of guys named Steve. Long ago Steve from newegg TV, Steve from futurelooks, and I would meet up at industry parties and say hi to eachother and people would give us looks, hey Steve, hey Steve, hey Steve haha we would all have a good laugh.

    Is the wifi card the same as Mediatek MT7922?

    I have a question about this board, hopefully you will be able to answer as msi can't. I just bought this board mainly for the looks and the audio . I do not have loud headphone output. The ess sabre should be able to make 32 ohm gaming headphones loud. My question is do I connect headphones to the front panel, or the rear io. And how do you control the dac. I have not seen anything in realtek app. Hopefully you can help. Thanks.

    Suggestion: Use a toothpick when pointing to these tiny chips. Otherwise, outstanding.

    I ordered this board. Why does MSI make replacing the CMOS battery so hard though? It looks like you have to remove the whole motherboard to replace it! Not good design.
