MSI MAG B650 Tomahawk WiFi.
The bottom of the mobo has a bit of a bend that prevents it from being able to sit snug on the bottom row's three standoffs - there's a good sized gap. I screwed them in until the board started to bend and then unscrewed them a tiny bit so they aren't stressing the board. Apparently, this is a somewhat common issues that is not usually an issue. Should I be concerned? I think a longer standoff would be helpful.
Are MSI mobos a good product? Imagine buying a $1,250 Godlike mobo and it was bent.
There are two choices for RAM OC'ing - A-XMP or EXPO. I can't much of anything regarding A-XMP. Maybe the 'A' stands for AMD and it makes the mobo compatible with the XMP OC'ing.
MSI displayed a pop-up asking if I wanted to install Norton 360. Boooo hissss!!! Lol.
