MSI MAG X670E Tomahawk

The MSI board looks decent I gue= ss, the x16/x4/x2 layout isn't great but
it's not horrible e= ither depending on your use case. Never looked into

<= div> one but it's still an additional cost and takes of at least one PCIe s= lot.

FWIW, I've jus= t got a machine with this motherboard. It seemed the
best op= tion available to me at the time, and I haven't had any issues
with it. Yes, the silly NIC (where do you find 2.5 Gb/s hubs?) is
irritating, but I need 2 NICs anyway, so putting in a second wasn't= an
issue. I also couldn't find any motherboard that fitted = the other
requirements and didn't have this NIC.

Hi,

Nice!= So the sata controller gets initialized correctly even on newer BIOS versi= ons? Does the Realtek NIC work ootb or do you need to use the driver in por= ts tree? 2.5G switches aren't that uncommon these days,
