Maybe it's just me, but I was expecting a lot more gaming benchmarks for a gaming MoBo.deegee - Sunday, April 28, 2013 - link
Not bad features for the price, but as mentioned in the article not much more than a stock board.Thanks, but I will stick with my ASUS ROG components.

Glad I didn't swap my blue MSI Z77A-GD65 for the gaming version. Other than the NIC and the nice color scheme it doesn't have anything to warrant a swap.PCgamerblogspot - Sunday, December 22, 2013 - link
I think you're being a little harsh on the board, MSI makes great boards and this one is no different. I own this board and although it not going to break any world records what it will do is provide a solid, stable, platform for you to build your PC off of. Its got good features and it's a (reasonably) good OC board. All in all I'm happy with it.
