Over the years I’ve owned more than a dozen MSI motherboards and for the past few years I’ve been buying only MSI boards for several reasons.
- Their motherboards are high quality and very stable.
- The BIOS is intuitive and easy to navigate.
- They offer very good technical support.
- They have a solid and helpful community forum.
That’s why I personally stick with MSI for both my daily system and other builds.
| BIOS Version | BIOS Ending | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| e.g., 7E59v2A80 | Round Number | Ends with 0 > stable, full release |
| e.g., 7E59v2A81 | Non-Round Number | Ends with a non-zero > test release, BETA version |
