Ok thank you, I will be returning it tonight lol Thanks you so much guys!

Alright thank you for you help!

sorry, its a MSI MPG Z390 Gaming plus, forgot to mention the last bit of it

true but I was REALLY pushing my budget getting this mobo, its not a full build, just replacing a bad part, however you said if it does boot into bios it should get into the system, if it did boot into bios what would I experience? like FPS drops or shitty performance? or lots of crashing?, what would I encounter

and you said about bios modding. Is that like teaking settings or what, and if it will boot to bios will it boot to main pc?

I can return it, but no z270 boards at my bestbuy so ill have to order it which i really don't want to do like at all, but if I have to I will

Ok so as I've said in previous posts im new to hardware and I know what im getting myself into, I have a i7-7700 and my motherboard is dying, so I went to good ol' bestbuy to get a new mobo and the guy talked me into getting a MSI MPG Z390 and he ASSURED me it would work, I didn't think it would but I trusted him since he said he knew people who have used it like this before, anyways I bought it for like 160$ and I need to know if it will work at all or if its even worth my time taking it out of the box. Im open to trying things with it to get it to work but I don't want to break my only cpu pls help

That's great info! Thank you so much

Ok, Thank you for the tips!

Awesome thank you for the help!

I do not plan on getting it, im just trying to learn about hardware and maybe help out my friends if they need help building a pc

Ok so I've revised everything you guys have told me and I've edited it pretty good I think, wanna take a look?

Ok thank you

The machine will be used for gaming, and work stuff so ill have a lot of VM's running and just a bunch of multitasking, and then again, if you use google chrome you need 64gb of ram anyways lmao

Ok so I really want to get into building and repairing pc's, and I have no money to do so with, so I've just been doing pcpartpicker like linus did with Anthony. Such as 500$ budget 1000$ budget etc, I wanted to know if this was a decent 500$ budget (not caring about aesthetics) but just performance. Like I said I have little experience in the Hardware field and have been getting into it, also, if anyone has tips of where to start learning that would be great, don't just say "youtube" but like topics of certain critical information that will be useful/required in this line of work. Thank you Please judge or tell me how I could have done better, I appreciate it $500 budget pcpartpicker : PCPartPicker Part List Type Item Price CPU AMD - Ryzen 5 1500X 3.5 GHz Quad-Core Processor $137.89 @ OutletPC CPU Cooler ARCTIC - Freezer 34 eSports CPU Cooler $34.99 @ Amazon Motherboard ASRock - B450M-HDV R4.0 Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard $59.89 @ OutletPC Memory GeIL - EVO SPEAR 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-2400 Memory $54.99 @ Newegg Storage Seagate - Barracuda 500 GB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive $26.99 @ Amazon Video Card Asus - Radeon RX 570 8 GB AREZ Expedition Video Card $119.99 @ Newegg Case Rosewill - FBM-01 MicroATX Mini Tower Case $24.99 @ Amazon Power Supply SeaSonic - S12III 500 W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply $31.98 @ Newegg Prices include shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts Total (before mail-in rebates) $536.71 Mail-in rebates -$45.00 Total $491.71 Generated by PCPartPicker 2019-07-04 09:50 EDT-0400
