I had an issue with install - no display and no posting to bios. After flashing the bios to the latest version, it posted fine with display and stable through stress testing. Steps below.
CPU: Intel Core i5-12600KF LGA1700 600
CPU Cooler: Thermaltake TH240 ARGB All-in-One Liquid Cooling System 240mm CL-W286-PL12SW-C
Motherboard: MSI PRO Z690-A WiFi ProSeries Motherboard
Storage: WD_BLACK 1TB SN850 NVMe WDS100T1X0E
Memory: TEAMGROUP T-Force Vulcan DDR5 Ram 32GB 5200MHz FLBD532G5200HC40CDC01
PSU: Thermaltake Toughpower PF1 850W 80+ Platinum PS-TPD-0850FNFAPU-1
GPU: 1070 - swapping to RX 6700 XT
--------------------------------
This is a great DDR 5 board. Looks good, but, missing a lot of bells and whistles you don't need anyway for gaming. This is the best budget gaming motherboard to pair with DDR5 memory. I paired this with 32gb Vulcan memory for $200 less than the next mb/memory combo.
Getting download speeds of 450+ (max under my service provider) in the room furthest away from my router on a different house level.
When I first installed this board, I was getting no display no posting to the bios. The LED troubleshooting lights were flashing cpu then solid green on boot. I was afraid the board was DOA.I started running through troubleshooting steps.
I checked the power connections, made sure my CPU was set correctly and went to one stick in dimm A2 (as outlined in manual). The kf chip does not have integrated graphics so swapped to a GPU I knew was working 1070. Still no post.
I opts to flash the bios using the bios flash port. search for "MSI® HOW TO use Flash BIOS Button"
Flash your bios at your own risk, but these steps worked for me.
1. using a different device, I download latest bios to usb drive (8gb+ formatted to fat 32)
2. renamed bios file to msi.rom.
3. plugged usb drive to flash bios port
4. with power off (psu hooked into CPU_pwr1 and ATX pwr1 and plugged into the outlet)
5. Hit flash bios button
6. usb drive and lights on mb flash/blink during installation (do not mess with board during this). Board will restart a few times when finished and lights will turn off.
7. Install CPU, GPU, cooling, memory if needed.
Bios posted and I was able to install windows and it has passed every stress test so far. Works great and very stable/fast. If you run into issues don't give up just yet. This is a new board with new architecture. you may need to update the bios if you run into issues. At time of this review, you will not find a cheaper wifi ddr5 board through amazon.
