msiPRO H610M-G DDR4 Motherboard (12th/13th/14th Gen Intel Core, LGA 1700 Socket, DDR4, PCIe 4, SATA 6Gb/s, 1Gbps LAN, M.2 Slots, USB 3.2, mATX)

Took a long time to get it set up but it is worth it in the end.

Great item for anyone that's looking to build their own computer

I tend to use MSI motherboards in most my PC builds. I needed a reliable board for a new NAS build, and picked this one because a) cost, I don't need a gaming rig, and b) DDR4 RAM is fine for a NAS or workstation. c) it was small enough. (wish they had an ITX version that was priced right)I did put a GPU on it only because TrueNAS can use it with the docker AI apps that I will run.

This is a pretty good motherboard from MSI. It is made of good quality and is stable as far as installing it in the PC. Not sure if the price is worth it for what I paid for it however. It only has two RAM slots. For a few bucks cheaper you can get a similar quality mobo and for a little more money you can get one that is way better. Keep in mind the value and the price when buying.

I planned on using the product for a custom PC build. It was supposed to be new but it looks like a return with a ripped bag and missing a SATA cable. My review is getting censored so just buyer beware*Edit*Reached out to customer support and got the problem resolved in a timely manner and everything is working fine now. Great Motherboard for first pc build with argb connectors.

CPU light of doom on after 9 months. Swapped every part (CPU, RAM, motherboard, SSD, reset the CMOS, etc) to no avail. I used it as a 24/7 server BUT it only hosted a few services and never ran over 50°C, and it sat in a cool room and was cleaned regularly.(CPU cooler and SSD mount is off in the photo as I was already disassembling the PC)A few other notable things is it was always plugged into a UPS for power redundancy (rules out any storm damage.) and the new motherboard I bought and installed with all of the same parts from the old build fired up right away with no issues.Nothing was overclocked, and I had many power saving features enabled (C-states, dynamic memory, etc) enabled to further reduce power consumption as it ran 24/7. The only thing that could have (unlikely) caused damage is the CPU cooler was set to turn on only when the CPU reached a certain temperature, and I took out the case fans to save additional power so there's a small chance the motherboard could have gotten warm or hot, though motherboards are designed to shut themselves down in a thermal event (again, CPU never reached over 50°C, and the PC sat in a cool room housed in a mesh case)Bought this motherboard for around $76 used in December 2023 (came and died in perfect condition, see second photo)

Finally it's time to upgrade to Win 11. This board was the least expensive one but with most of the features that I wanted.If you don't overclock or put heavy load, this board is perfect. It just need a USB C port then it would be golden

I love this it’s an absolute upgrade and I had zero problem installing.
