So, I just got my MOBO...

B760 GAMING PLUS WIFI.

As I cannot place in my 3-gen M.2.SSD or my 4-gen since they don´t seem to fit.



I Google around about it, why my -Samsung m.2 card 970 evo plus don´t work.

As I find none info about it.

I search on MSI own site that just say [Info]

2x M.2

M.2_1 Source (From CPU) supports up to PCIe 4.0 x4 , supports 22110/2280/2260/2242 devices

M.2_2 Source (From Chipset) supports up to PCIe 4.0 x4 / SATA mode, supports 2280/2260/2242 devices

4x SATA 6G

* SATA8 will be unavailable when installing M.2 SATA SSD in the M2_2 slot.]



Yeah, sure okay, so I take my M.2.SSD Corsair m.2.ssd gen 4, again don´t fit.



Is this why this MOBO has 3.3-stars?

Is it faulty design?

Because of faulty design that m.2.cards don´t fit or something?

Since if none of my M.2.cards fit I honestly starts to worry me.

As others on [Google] also say their M.2.cards do not fit.



I never ever had this issue before with an MOBO, so {WTF is this?}



Thank you for any update/info & respond.



CSL& OUT!
 
Model numbers of the M.2 and Photos ot the probem please
"Na sorry I am returning this [MOBO] way too many weird issues with it!"
And I am sadly not taking it apart from the CPU & RAM at this moment, I will first contact the shop about this.

But if you want full story, as I realize how badly made this MOBO is.
I leave some info on [MSI-B760] I will return to the shop...

M.2.Cards: None fit.
You can read this: & the M.2 cards are - [https://www.pricerunner.se/sp/samsung-970-evo-plus-ssd-m.2.html] & [https://www.pricerunner.se/pl/36-3201024678/Haarddiskar/Corsair-MP600-PRO-LPX-SSD-1TB-priser] & I did also try a [https://www.pricerunner.se/pl/36-3202489633/Haarddiskar/Kingston-NV2-SNV2S-1000G-1TB-priser]

"And trust me, none fit, it´s like a gap a very weird gap, the same issue the ROG-MOBO have people complain about M.2-faulty gap!"
Or did MSI [Forgot to say only these M.2-cards match] with a more precise detail?
"No, no they did not!"

And if you´re telling me, none of these M.2-cards fit, then maybe make a damn list about it or better info {MSI}?

If not, I am just marking this [MOBO] as faulty, with all the issues I had with it, even my (MOBO with DDR3 is better built} that costed like 50bucks by that time...

MSI B760...

Part-1: Info…

"No sorry I do not recommend it!"

Why you wonder?

1: M.2:Card has a fit issue & don´t work or want to go into the slot without issues.

ASUS-ROG-MOBO: Had the same issue making people irritated.

So, even with Gen-3 or Gen-4 it, don´t match/fit…

And when I google about it, I am not alone with this faulty-issue.

“I can even see damage on the sides of the card!”

2: The Chassi/Case also have issues with the screws – with a Be Quiet - SHADOW BASE 800 FX Black chassi, this should not be an issue when it´s both E-[ATX] & [ATX]

The MOBO is [ATX]…

That have the right size & the right ATX area & size.

Meaning I had issues putting it in.

Also, the back shield plate, for the USB & other cable areas is garbage.

3: The CPU-cards back plate on mine was also damage.

4: The Pointer for the CPU placed up-side down, with honestly no real good info about it.

Or color marking, so after removing that plate where only the plastic shows the marker & you forgot to think about it, you might put in the [CPU wrongly], honestly no real MOBO marking for the CPU is dumb.

And lastly 5: Not worth the cost, until it dropped down to 150-dollars.

“Still not worth it, looking at this MOBO!”



So, yeah not a card I sadly recommend & that´s probably why it has 3,2 in stars.



Part-2: Then I realize these factory damage: Faulty or badly made MOBO.

1: The M.2:Card 4gen Lightning silver plate do not want to screw in correctly, the plate wiggle.

Removed it took a look & inside the screws holes there was something inside them, like screw damage or something.

Or plastic, honestly…

I took my tech air blower removed it.

Put on the plate, one screw does not want to tighten it.

So, it wiggles & do not want to tighten.

2: I try to removed the CPU holding system, as the screws are so tightly put, I almost thought I screw at the wrong way.

Nopp, someone has honestly tension it so tightly it was scary.

to replace it with a cooling plate, that hold the CPU in place.

What I saw first on the back plate shield was.

1: Damage like little holes on the back, because of the pressure they tighten it & damage on the spikes.

“Why are there even spikes behind the shield back plate?”

[Clearly the card is already damage completely new!]

2: A deep tiny cut on the back shield plate.

As I am thinking “WTF!” I am very careful with my items & carefully handle them & very pedantic so, this is a factory {issue} a faulty or badly made card.

3: I realize weird cuts on the side of the card, like when you cut wood & it becomes like crooked dents.

As I think “This isn´t normal on a MOBO!”

4: The M.2.Cards do not fit, also other say the same & the same with the new ASUS-Rog-MOBO being faulty.

5: The screws holes are like 1/5mm misplaced or something, since the middle hole with the none screw hole make the others holes hard to screw in.

So, yes clearly, I have a faulty or Defective MOBO, still will I buy a new one after this & take the chance the next one is good?

“Clearly no!”

“No I will not!?”

(But I am replacing this garbage card that´s for sure)

And this is why I dislike buying MOBO 2025, the companies that create them create bad & badly ones that´s faulty or just badly made.

They over complicate it & build them wrong :S.

End of story!

CSL & OUT!

OK, it is just that. Photos and serial numbers would have enabled me to request an investigation to be undertaken. To find out what the problem is.
