Bought a MicroATX motherboard from MSI a year ago and noticed that you don't have enough space, especially when you have to connect things it gets quite tight. With this motherboard you can connect everything much easier, because there is a lot of space between all connections. I immediately went to look for MSI, because I think MSI has the best performance for gaming. That is what you immediately notice in the design and the software that comes with it. The only downside for me was that the fan headers were actually everywhere and nowhere, which made it a bit of a puzzle with the cables. Besides that you had to put a little more force to place the CPU, but I haven't had any problems with it in terms of damage to the CPU. In short, it is just a very nice motherboard and certainly for gaming.

After a lot of fun with z97 gaming 3, this upgrade was made quickly. Z390 gaming plus is worth every penny. Together with the i9 intel 9900k processor, every benchmark gives me a big smile. Great to also have a high fps with heavy sims and games
