What's not to like? 16 pin CPU power, good. Quad M.2, good. So many USB ports, good. I really dont see anything missing from a reguler gamer's point of view.

For this price, I would say not really

Build quality is soild too. If anyone need a strong motherboad with good expansion and good quality, I would recommend Tomahawk for sure. This board I think would be able to satisfy 80% plus users for sure.

Great wifi and build quality. Support for 12th gen intel is a great addition.

Nothing really.

Perfect motherboard for the price.

seems like a nice design overall

No video signal out of either of two video cards I tried in all 3 of the PCIe slots. POST passes every time but no signal. Fortunately I have the 12600K, so I was able to get a signal out of the HDMI on the MB... video card in the slot shows perfectly healthy in the PCIe slot by HWI64 and GPU-Z but if I connect ANY kind of cable between it and my display (also MSI) POST passes but NO signal. Tried 3 different BIOS for the MB, no fix. Also tried 6 different HDMI and DisplayPort cables. All pins in CPU socket are 100% perfect. Tried MB both IN and OUT of Fractal case. Used different power cables for connections, no fix there either. This ISN'T even a "cheap" MSI MB either....

Can't say anything GOOD about this experience vs 5 builds using Asus MB and a mix of 3rd Gen Threadripper and Intel 2066 sockets... everything ALWAYS worked perfect on those...and is STILL perfect with all of them 2 years later. 1 AM4 build was also with Asus MB and it's performing perfect as well. I THINK I'm learning something here. Not even sure why these consumer model MB's have all the NVMe and PCIe slots... NONE of the processors and sockets even provide HALF the necessary PCIe Lanes for them to work. Some money could be saved by just offering the 1 NVMe and single PCIe slot these processors support ... 2 NVMe at best... just leave the rest of the pieces in the bins at FoxConn for other MB's to be built.

Once you get it working, everything functions good.. No RGB. Built-in IO Shield. Helps simplify installation. 3 x PCIe x16 Slots BIOS Flash features are nice.

To make a long story short ... Be wary of which BIOS version you deploy on this. Installing the wrong version may break the on-board network functionality and also break RAM XMP compatibility. If your board has any sort of RAM XMP issue or Error Code 10 for the onboard NIC in Windows Device Manager, then use a different version of the BIOS, as that's likely the cause.

Board seems stable and has a nice set of features. Once you get past the BIOS version to run on it, it's a decent board.

Nice Build Quality and love the RGB from Mystic Light,

CPU connector on the top left, a little hard to connect but small tradeoff for the quality and capabilities

Quality motherboard and totally worth the price. Great for future proofing

(This review is for the MSI Review Rebate Rebate Program). This is a verified personal purchase. I have teamed this board with a 12700K Intel chip. Gorgeous looking board (stealth and Ninja). MSI - Have always made excellent boards, especially the Tomahawk Series. They hit it out of the park with this one. Great WiFi. Extremely easy to install. No issues what so ever. Excellent MSI software and instruction manual. 4 M.2 slots. WiFi 6 and bluetooth work excellent. 2.5 gig lan rocks for speed. Solid right out of the box unlike other brands. Great reviews online.

Only weakens I could find is no RGB built in. Just a tad could have accentuated the port shroud. No matter - add your own. It has a beautiful stealth appeal to it.

I love this board. Z690 just flies. Very solid right out of the box unlike other brands. Highly recommended.

Strong Bluetooth and Wifi, Nice Build Quality and look to it

I don't see a reason to get a more expensive motherboard than this. It has everything I needed and more.
