I wanted to post this mostly for the other early adopters of this board to discuss what's going right/wrong, overclocking potential, what features are or are not working, etc.

BIOS: ****V12, released July 2

Things that stand out for me are a lack of logo appearing on boot (despite the option for displaying the logo being active), as well as a generally slow boot process.
MSI's "Game boost" feature also currently prevents the system from booting, in my case anyway.

I will post back with the overclocking results when I have them. Hoping other owners have things to talk about, and honestly hoping it's not just me with these little issues.

Well yes, i got the same issue as well, using the V12 bios released July 2 slightly improves the boot time.

I also did set Legacy USB to "Auto" rather than "Enabled" and it is slightly faster as well.
 
I am also facing same issues. Slow Bios, Game Boost not working, Bios missing many features and Dragon Centre is shit. It uninstalls itself. Windows gets messed up after 2-3 couple of restart and goes unrepairable. It is like I bought some shit mobo. Couldn't do anything.
 
Same here but with Gaming pro carbon. Win 10 fully updated, Latest bios from first of juli, 32Gb Corsair 3200 mem, all drivers installed. Inspite of having a NVMe drive it takes about 40 sec for bios post and then another 15 for windows. Game boost crashes it inmediatly, slightest overclock crashes it. And then you can only be reset by a jumper which was obviously to expensive to provide......
 
well so far the only issue i have is slow mouse in bios, i have not yet updated the bios, still on what ever came with the board, just got the board yesterday and installed it in a brand new system with all new hardware.. i think i will hold off on the bios update until a few more releases..

I can't boot into windows if game boost is enabled,it just crashes and keeps looping.I had to repair the bootup process. latest bios ver-E7C37AMS.120. with latest windows 10 updates.And in the dragon center my gpu isn't detected(gigabyte 2070s gaming oc )

A lot of problems...

I had slow boot, 10 fps mouse moving in Bios and M2_2 SATA not working properly.

When you install an M2 SATA to M2 PCIe slot, the drive becomes unreadable (it still works in a computer, without damage) and windows 10 always crashes. Not sure what's going on but this what happened to me. It seems there is a PCIe lane problems with this motherboard or BIOS problems. Didn't try with another M2 NVMe SSD.
 
New Bios update is released. Did anyone test?
Is Game Boost and other things working?
I have plugged 6 Sata and 4 of them shows removable forcefully + another option is AMD Raid which I don't want to use.

You have to go to bios and in setting you can make them "non-removable" (You will see it as Hotplug on, you need to make it off)

i just updated BIOS and my long boot time still exactly the same, about 26s from pressing the pwr button to the desktop with 1s entering 6 digits password (dissapointed)
about sata drive show up as removable drive butt hurt me a little but i just fix it, i see in BIOS it only allow port 3-6 to have hotplug or not so i think 1 and 2 are default hotplug, so i unplug from 1 and plug into 3, and boom it's not show up as removable anymore (checked in device manager) also i see in manual it say port 5,6 is ASmedia port or sth, so dont trust 5,6

I have a MPG Gaming Pro Carbon Wi-Fi and updated it to the latest BIOS (7B93V12) that was posted today... All kinds of issues... The Control Panel Power Options no longer has any effect on the CPU. It runs 100% at 4.2 GHz @ 1.397 volts at 50+ degrees on idle.

Running Cinebench, the CPU hits 4.4 GHz at the same voltage and 80 + degrees.

Using any HW diagnostics vs AMD Ryzen Master shows completely different data points.
