Cons: Limited overclocking features(Can only overvolt CPUs up to 0.16 volts)

Pros: Decent board for the priceGood color combo
Comment:
Not a bad board for the price. It also looks nice, but has limited overclocking features because it can't overvolt CPUs that much. However, I did manage to get a 3570k to 4.6ghz with this board at 1.21 volts.

Cons: PCB not black

Pros: Price, Good performance
Comment:
Very good Z77 board for budget gaming/overclocking builds. Supports Crossfire and USB3. Only downside is case fan connectors are placed too close to the CPU area and makes cable management slightly messy.

nice board to build a low budget pc, i already have the gd65 in my pc, so i was confident going with the g43 wouldn't cause any problem.it works beautifully paired with a 3570k chip

I would love to leave a + feedback, but I am yet to use the item. Purchased on black Friday and had to RMA it. I had an invoice emailed to me for the new board on December 19th. It is now December 28th and I am still waiting on shipment confirmation. Please please please send me my motherboard!!!I will rate accordingly after I actually get an item, thanks.

Cons: lack of accessories

Pros: Performance, simple to use, price
Comment:
Not sure why these have been getting bad reviews online but I've used both G41 and G43 and found it was easy to use and a great board for a budget system. The UEFI was not the best but it was straight forward and very easy to set up. It just lacks accessories and features like SLI and O/C. Though it says it is O/C capable, I would not buy this board for O/C. Overall great bang for the buck.

Comment:
This mobo is better then the Z68 (other brand) i bought. The board is solid, parts are good quality. Solid caps. The Bios is a new kind, a little bit confuse to surf on. Good thing, its the first mouse using on BIOS i see. Seems to be a little bit slow to boot with you do upgrade on Windows 7. Anyway, its not so important. MSI seems to have upgrade their quality now.

Cons: not many hardcore settings.

Pros: cheap, does what its suppose to do.
Comment:
being one of the cheaper z66 chipset board, there's nothing much special. It has a good and easy to use bios interface, but without many of the advance options that hardcore oc fans would need.

Cons: Only 2 SATA cableslimited overclock settingsNo SLI

Pros: Works wellExcellent price point
Comment:
This is a excellent board for the normal user. Gives flexibility, but doesn't have the "hardcore" settings that to the average consumer are useless. Would recommend to others.
