MSI Arsenal Gaming Z270M MORTAR - Manufacturer Refurbished

I just bought one on Amazon from an authorized wholesaler and on-line reseller of MSI full line products. The price was $84, and I had a $50 gift card; so my final price was $34.

This will be my first board for LGA 1151 platform and I'm hoping it will last me a few years. If it doesn't oh well, it only cost me $34. Obviously money was a factor or else I'd have went with the full ATX Z270 TOMAHAWK like I had been wanting.

I'm a little concerned about it being mATX because I know they don't have as many power phases. I'll be using a Pentium G4560 until Coffee Lake releases their i7 or i5 K series. What do you think? Worth the risk? Better than buying a new B250?

Their no official release even saying coffee lake will even be a 1151 socket Intel usually changes sockets every couple of new releases.
Personally I would not even be concerned about that at this time. some of the mATX board have a good power delivery system even for overclocking.
I would never buy a board that has already failed one time I don't even trust new MSI boards.
