MSI Micro ATX DDR3 1600 AMD - AM3+ Motherboards 760GMA-P34 (FX)

I seem to use MSI and Gigabyte Motherboards for all of my home desktop computers and this MSI motherboard is pretty good and a nice upgrade from my older MSI motherboard. It's very easy to use for any upgraded or new home desktop computer and used a AMD 6-core CPU processor on this motherboard and it works great. It takes DDR3 memory and more than my older motherboard. It has plenty of SATA outputs/inputs so I can easily install a SSD and 2 regular hard drives on this motherboard. It's very good, pretty speedy and works perfect for me! Pretty good motherboard for what I paid for it.

This is my go to board for a budget gaming system. It has some of the more essential features, including Sata 6GB/s and USB 3.0. It doesn't really allow for much expansion beyond the base system, having only one PCI Express 3.0 slot, two dimms, and only a 4-pin cpu rail, however for a small LAN system or a budget gaming PC you wont find many quality options. Of the systems I've built with this motherboard, I've had no issue. Each board arrives ready to toss in a system and loads up without error. One thing of note that may be annoying the first time you boot the system is the default boot order. By default, the system loads into the 2TB Infinity system that allows older operating systems to recognize drives larger than 2TB. If you are installing any modern operating system, this feature isn't really necessary and only slows down what is otherwise a very quick boot. I would recommend this board to anyone looking to build a HTPC, a small LAN system, or anyone ' on a tight budget.

I purchased this mobo for the first rig I ever built myself. I wasn't looking to spend an outrageous amount of money for the parts I wanted, and the reason I chose this mobo is because of three primary reasons: Price (57.99), Socket (AMD Quad-core), and Manufacturer (I bought an MSI nVidia Geforce card for my rig). My intent was to build an inexpensive rig capable of gaming, and that's what I feel I now have. Installing this mobo was easy and pretty much self-taught (thanks to the manuals that came with it and the one for the case I chose). For the pricing I could have gone with a Gigabyte brand mobo but because when I chose an MSI branded graphics card over an equivalent Gigabyte branded graphics cards my decision was made. So in the end I spent less on the mobo and a little extra on the graphics. One pro of this mobo is how its labelled, which made it easy for a first-time builder to find where to plug everything in (thanks again to the included manuals).

When I got the motherboard the date was set to year 2099 and I couldn't change it. I flashed the bios and tried every trick in the book, but it turns out it was just defective. I bought the product "Used" from amazon at a discount (amazon warehouse deals), so that may have been that the product was not fully checked for defects before repackaging. Either way, I was able to submit an RMA to a local MSI office and had it replaced. It's a very simple motherboard (not a ton of add on space, no IDE but IDE is outdated now anyways). I packed 16gbs of DDR3 ram in there, a 6 core AMD chip and a Radeon Sapphire Graphics card and everything worked better than expected. Highly recommend, as I like things to be simple. Not sure why the price keeps rising on this though, when I bought it, it was 60 or so dollars (I got it for 49 on amazon warehouse deals).

I originally was looking up the parts for rebuilding my desktop on Tiger direct and New egg. I found the parts the same price if not cheaper on Amazon, and with my prime membership - 2 day shipping free. So I ordered them. I'm not going to get into too much detail about the MB itself other than it fits the bill for what works with my case, the processor I purchased, and met the needs of everything else I planned on plugging in to it. My research showed me that MSI was a good brand for mother boards. It came with an owner's manual that has some neat information about everything and was useful for figuring some things out like which wires I needed to hook up for my power switch. Up and running computing: Not much to say here other than it works. I'm not using the on board video card so not much to say about that. So far so good.

Bought as a replacement for an older PC I use and am not disappointed. This thing is in perfect shape. It was advertised as new, and I have no reason to believe it wasn't. Came in new packaging with OEM included hardware. For the seller, the shipping package was better then normal. Plenty of material to absorb shocks, which it took getting here. The outside box was banged up a lot, but the inside box was flawless. Oh, it it came in a full 5 days ahead of schedule. Will definitely go back to this seller for future purchases.

I have bought a number of motherboards over the years,some with good reviews some not so good reviews. I have to say this is the first one that arrived DOA,would not boot,no beep codes,the only time it would beep is when i removed the memory. Tried a known good CPU, a different PSU a discrete video card nothing worked,have RMAed and waiting for a refund Got this board based on the reviews, i guess i finely got a lemon like everyone does that DIY in this world of computer building. In the process of looking for another board.

Pros: The price, form factor, and RAID at 6GB/s. Cons: The lousy documentation about the RAID (or should I say no existent documentation). The CPU Fan speed is at full blast regardless of weather you set up in the BIOS. I even tried updating the BIOS to resolve it and I still have the same problem. Other Thoughts: Other them some minor issues it seems to be a decent board. I wish I would have chose a different board as the CPU fan at full blast is to much. I got the board as I was looking for a small form factor board that would fit in an existing case, has a RAID 1 (that would run at 6GB/s), and would support a AMD3+ Athlon x4 Processor I had.

Product was as advertised, delivered in a timely manner and was a good value.

Ordered one, and it was a lemon. Tried everything and it would not POST. Sent it back and re-ordered another because I still wanted it. The return was somewhat easy to do and I got my new mobo the same day they got their old one returned. I am satisfied with this product.

fast shipping, super fast!
