MSI X670E GAMING PLUS WIFI
AM5, AMD X670E, ATX
Operated with AMD Ryzen 9 9950x.
When starting for the first time, both error LEDs light up: Defective or missing CPU, defective or missing DRAM. A flash BIOS update via UBS stick and flash button on the board is required first. Then, however, both error LEDs continue to light up. I have reinstalled the CPU and RAM bars about 3 times. Then I found the tip in a forum: The first start takes about half an hour. And that's exactly what it took. After about half an hour, first one and then the other LED went out and a display appeared on the monitor for the first time.
MSI MUST make a note of this on a notepad! - That's why I'm writing it here!
Afterwards everything was fine! A highly recommended board!

Great board, don't forget to activate the "memory context" in the BIOS settings so that the boot process into Windows only takes a few seconds. Otherwise it will take several minutes with the AM5 chipset.
I've had the board working in my PC for a week now and everything runs without any problems and was recognised straight away. Setting up Bluetooth and WLAN also went quite quickly and there were no problems. The only thing that didn't work straight away was installing the M2 SSD. You have to insert it at a certain angle, but it could have been me. The BIOS is also very clear and you can find all the options quite quickly. I also like the board, except for the fact that the I/O cover doesn't cover everything. But this is not so noticeable.
For the price, the MSI X670E Gaming Plus is a very good motherboard that even offers white elements, which is unfortunately still quite rare.
