Burning in for a couple of days now and all is great

Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2017

Size: ATXStyle: X299 GAMING PRO CARBON ACVerified Purchase

What's not to like? It's supporting a six core i7 and 64GB of memory. Running at maximum speed for the cpu and memory and it's stable. Probably won't over clock as I'm not curious enough to exceed spec, at least by far, but this appears to sure have that capability. Disappointed that they only supplied six stand offs for main board installation when the board and my case ask for nine. Not worth kicking off a star but worth mentioning.

Potential 5/5

Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2017

Size: ATXStyle: X299 TOMAHAWK ARCTICVerified Purchase

Lovely board. With release BIOS was able to properly detect all of my RAM even though I am using the lowly I5 CPU. Unlike the gigabyte board I had previously that was riddled with problems this unit is amazing.

The only downside is that the backplate does not fit on my Inwin 303. A full 5MM too wide which I thought might be my case not conforming to standards however atleast 2 other boards backplates (I/O shield) have fit without issue.

Had the backplate actually fit it would be a 5/5 no problem.

Great Skylake X Board

Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2019

Size: ATXStyle: X299M GAMING PRO CARBON ACVerified Purchase

Amazing Mb. Paired with i7-7820X. Initially ordered a different board from another high end manufacturer that came with tons of memory issues & ultimately died within a few days. Sent back (which caused a bunch of issues during tear down) and spent more for the MSI. Flawless installation and after a few weeks is working as good as the day I bought it. Would buy again. First time using MSI products, very happy with the quality of the board from the second I opened the box and inspected.

This one worked right out of the box so far. Maybe, I just got a hold of one of the really good ones this time around. I have had it for a few weeks and it works as it is advertised. I connected allot of components to it so far and it has not failed me yet. My older X99 board could not take all my extra external hard drives but, this one does it easily. Good board for me. I cannot vouch for other boards but, this one is right for me.

Great motherboard. My system runs 24/7 and I have had no problems since day one. MSI products are solid and I have several of their motherboards and video cards.

Works great and at a very fair price

Use this for my editing/workstation and some gaming. The bios UI is great and easy to understand. I used to use Asus mobos but after having to deal with their very weak customer service I decided to jump ship to a different manufacturer. MSI has been awesome, easy to overclock easy to setup, easy to read manual. The one thing that bothers me about MSI is that I asked them some technical questions about thunderbolt and they kept having a sales rep contact me rather than just answering my technical but very simple question...

So far so good, getting stuff from their web site was a bit difficult, but the board itself works great, has lots of fan headers and the overclock stuff is nice. Did NOT included the riser for one of the m.2 headers as described, I may have misunderstood. I'll get it when we need it. Software included is kind of clunky, might dump it and let windows deal with updates.

Hands down, I’ve owned a few. This is my second M7. Loved the last one so much, I upgraded to the x299 version. It’s just a great all around board.

An excellent Motherboard for X299 HEDT CPUs

Reviewed in India on April 28, 2018

Verified Purchase

I purchased this as I wanted an All-In-One solution and future upgradability.

Few things you CAN do with this motherboard:
1. Remove the existing Intel-Wifi card from M.2 connector and replace with any Broadcom based wifi card for easy Hackintosh.
2. Run SLI/Crossfire with both the GPUs running on x16
3. Remove default NVMe heatsink completely and use your own heatsink for NVMe drives.
4. Add Thunderbolt 3 PCIe card for Thunderbolt 3 support obviously.
5. Add 4 RAM modules of same speed to run on Quad Channel memory.
6. Make a perfect Hackintosh if you follow internet tutorials.

Cons:
1. This motherboard is a poor overclocker because of insufficient cooling for VRMs (Voltage Regulator Modules). All of internet says to avoid this motherboard if you want to set overclocking records.
2. Slow POST bootup with NVMe drives.
3. 1st M.2 slot for NVMe comes under the GPU... I mean seriously What The Frack? Who designs this nonsense?
4. Factory BIOS is unstable and needs to be updated to latest one from MSI website as soon as possible.

Few tips to enjoy pure UEFI booting experience:
1. Update to latest BIOS (v1.80 as of May 2018) and reset to factory defaults. Reboot.
2. In BIOS Disable CSM
3. Enable Windows 8/10 WHQL support
4. Fastboot Enable. (Don't enable MSI Fastboot. You loose access to BIOS most of the times because boot process becomes too fast to press Del to enter setup.)
4. For Hackintosh, BIOS -> OC Settings -> CPU settings -> CFG Lock -> Disable

Once up and running, everything is stable.

Rock and roll

This board was shipped quickly and arrived in excellent condition. Quite a nice sight to see the carbon. Love it. Worked well out of the box and it was a pleasure to set up after I had to take my Asus Sage out that was badly made and had the one blue screen after the other.
The board is fast. One can tune it well and work excellent.

It may be missing the SLI bridge but everything is great. Pretty clean and new for a second hand motherboard, worth the value for sure. BTW the seller is very quick at responding.
