MSI MAG B365M Mortar Intel Gaming LAN, Pre-Installed I/O Shielding, Core Boost, DDR4 Boost, Turbo M.2 and USB 3.1 Connector

It's awesome

Excellent working

I'm using this with an old and unemployed i5-9400F. The board is reasonably built, and the only basic B365 motherboard offering some semblance of VRM heatsinking. While the heatsink itself is tiny, there is a lip cut into the plastic shroud to allow a bit more turbulence above the sink itself. This should allow lower VRM temperatures, specially since the 9400F likes to pull about 100W peak on Turbo mode.There are no frills, the board itself is quite unremarkable. There's only 6 USB ports at the back, and for some reason they have two PS/2 ports. It would be nicer to switch out one of those ports for a couple USB.There's outputs for both ARGB and 4-pin legacy header. The default effect without the software is very poor, unlike my Carbon motherboard which is striking. The fan control is reasonable, there are two PWM/DC switchable headers along with the default CPU header which is always PWM. The tweaking app in BIOS is quite poor, with laggy operation that responds very slowly to mouse input.Using a dual-slot video card, all three slots are usable for add-ins. There's no SPDIF output on the board, either at the back or through a header. This is a dropped ball - even though there's one unmarked header that could be it, I'm not experimenting.The Intel network card is a nice upgrade from basic Realtek controllers, and there's a few Nichicon audio capacitors on the PCB though the audio chip is quite poor anyway. Some memory OC is possible up to the CPU supported maximum, but you can get similar results from tightening the timings.Overall, it's competent without being remarkable in any way. It's a decent move from the very poor quality H310 and entry-level B365, but costs quite a bit more. Still it is probably worth it if you want some hope of it lasting beyond the warranty period.

The product came with the mobo being bent on the top portion of the I/O shield and also the top left portion of the mobo was bent inwards...I tested the the mobo and it works very well...Also some accessories were missing such as:1. M.2 screw to fix the ssd.2. Screws to fit the mobo in the cabinet.3. Phillips screwdriver.SHOULD HAVE BEEN A BETTER EXPERIENCE WITH AMAZON...I WANT TO CONTACT THE DEALER FOR FURTHER ASSISTANCE...

The media could not be loaded. The best motherbaord no problems .i used and core i5 9400f ,rx570 8gb ddr5 asus , antec atom 550 watt,psu 16gb ddr4 2666 crucial ram , ant esports ice and a chipontrex gx something works like a charm
