MSI is really doing a good job with their hardware and VERY competitive pricing i couldn't be more happier with my Gaming GP62MVR Leopard Pro i7-6700HQ Nvidia GTX 1060 Laptop and x370 Krait Gaming motherboard i bought, so far not a hick up. I also built a Ryzen 1600 using their PC-MATE B350 board for a buddy which is also happy with the build. I must say this X370 Gaming M7 ACK board looks like a very nice addition to their current line up.
