The main driver that I got from the MSI site (Intel) . Loving the board as a whole. Will get some pics up later.

Wifi driver on the MSI site is 21.90.2.1 AFAIK, driver that Win10 installed on my system is 21.90.3.2. And I'm not getting any dropouts or signal issues. If you do an automatic driver update from Device Manager does it find the 21.90.3.2 driver?

It only loses connection if it's under strain. Example being set off a download on steam and then try browsing or downloading another file it just can't cope and cuts off. I've had this with previous on board wifi and USB wifi cards. Which is why I ended buying an Asus PCE-AC88 and it's never skipped a beat. To be fair I'm still using a virgin media SH3 downstairs which isn't the best.

Windows shows my driver version as 21.90.1.2 It claims that's the latest driver. Unless there's one I can directly download from intel?

Do these settings look good - running this memory :

@MSIUK Support

Please can we get an option do disable on board Wifi in the BIOS? Can you feed this back to tech team? Seems your other X570 boards allow this

Thanks

Looks great.

Keen to order mine soon too. £240 inc delivery is a touch over my budget though. Still a great board no matter what.

Of course! Would you mind attaching a photo from the integrated peripherals section? I'll raise a ticket for BIOS team.

Thanks!

If you don’t want to use it, right click it in device manager, disable?

Hi there,

no worries here you go:

Only an option for disabling LAN. Thanks for the swift reply, love the board!

@ScottiB - Any idea as to when more stock will become available?

Nightingale · 4 Jun 2020 at 22:08

Looks like I am going to wait it out to see how the B550 boards pan out.

@PeegeeTips - I don't usually pre-order so will likely pick this up once in stock.

JollyJamma · 5 Jun 2020 at 13:14

The upgrade bug bit and I purchased mine this week. I couldn't not.
