    HEADS UP IF YOURE PUTTING THIS IN A FRESH BUILD WITH WINDOWS 11
    For whatever reason this boards Lan port doesn’t play nice with windows 11 until you get the drivers installed, and it doesn’t give you the driver install prompt until you connect to the internet.
    The workaround is to use an Ethernet to usb adapter and run your Ethernet into a usb port until you can get the drivers installed.
    It took me hours to figure this out.

    I've had one of these for 3 weeks now and it's great BUT, there;s a lot of coil whine which, had i known, I would have opted for a different board. Other than that it's pretty solid running a 14900K with ease.... As long as the latest BIOS is in there.

    When the Raid is active, on this motherboard no hard disk is recognized from Bios, this means that software like Acronis with USB Boot does not recognize any disk drive and therefore it is not possible to CLONE the startup disk. I have an open ticket with MSI where they tell me it's normal ! 😵‍💫
