So...... I incorrectly assumed my Motherboard was broken a few days ago and it turns out, it was my CPU! (crazy, no overclocking... 6600K just died. I don't think I've had a CPU die in 20 years) In the process of trying to fix, I picked up this MSI motherboard... I read its sort of lower end for MSI and I'm wondering what the community would suggest? I think I'm going to put the ASRock back in the case.. Anyone disagree? It's a higher price point product and looks a lot better built to me.. thinking I'll keep the MSI board to make a HTPC later on.
