The latest BIOS should always be the first step - regardless of whether it is already compatible or not. Reformat the USB stick with FAT32. Download BIOS from 08.04.2021. Rename to MSI.ROM. Copy only this file to an empty stick. Connect the board to the power supply (power supply to CPU_PWR1 and ATX_PWR1). Plug the USB into the Flash BIOS port on the back. Press Flash BIOS button to flash the BIOS and the LED of the button starts flashing.After the BIOS flash process is 100% complete, the LED goes off simultaneously.

You are right that Digitec makes false statements. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/DDR-SDRAM#%C3%9Cbersicht

I would rather ask the support directly, it's quicker and the better place to go: https://helpcenter.digitec.ch/hc/de/requests/new

No, there is currently nothing from AMD that is DDR5-capable. This is only supposed to come with the new AM5 socket. But DDR5 is currently still far too expensive and offers little more performance than DDR4.

Check the MSI website to see which modules the board is compatible with, you may have to update the bios. I run 2x 16GB 3200

DEL, F8 or F10. Stops at some point during POST (black screen at the beginning). You never change it before you have been in it :)

In and of itself, the composition should fit. However, I would rather go for Ripjaws V, as they are absolutely uncomplicated. In addition, if other ram should be installed, the Noctua NH-D15S, which was made to be able to install higher ram modules. Apart from low-profile ram like the LPX, the non-Noctua S will otherwise be a bit tight. The good thing about Noctua is that there will always be a suitable CPU plate in the future and you can also get these from Noctua at a later date. PS: If you're interested in a black build, I'm still selling an NH-D15S black.chromax on Tutti, unopened and unused. Make sure that the Noctua cooler is wide enough for your case.

I didn't get a game with it. But the motherboard is really good, I can recommend it without reservation.

I have installed a be quiet dark rock pro 4, which works perfectly. The memory chips are very close to the bottom. There is only about 2mm left. Another tip: I have a Ryzen 9 3900X, which I overclock to all-core 4250Mhz. However, the CPU temp is reaching its limits. Sometimes I have over 100 degrees. I will now switch to a water cooling system, because the Ryzen can do much more, but needs appropriate cooling. Air coolers quickly reach their limits when overclocking.

the board itself has a cooling shield which is screwed onto the respective M2 SSD. however, this only works with a flat M.2, e.g. Seagate FireCuda 520 (2000GB, M.2 2280)

Hello, yes, all three M.2 interfaces are PCIe-4.0 compatible. WiFi can be deactivated in the bios.
