MSI customer support wasn't very knowlegable or supportive.
I bought a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO (RR-212E-20PK-R2) as my cooling solution for my Intel Core i7-7740X Processor. The aforementioned heat sink and fan are advertised to work for this socket (LGA 2066), but the mounting screws are too short. I just got off the phone with MSI’s tech “support.” The first of two options they gave me was to remove the backing plate that came attached to the motherboard, so that the screws would reach the supplied aftermarket backing plate. I’m a little bit wary of doing that because the original backing plate appears to be holding the socket housing to the motherboard. I could be wrong. The second option was to go to pcpartpicker.com, and search for cooling solutions that pcpartpicker.com deems compatible with this motherboard. I chose the second option and it said the cooling solution that I originally chose is compatible. So, either I do need to pull the original back plate off, or I can’t trust multiple sources as to what cooling solutions are compatible with this motherboard. Tech “support” told me that this motherboard socket was a LGA 2011-3. It isn’t a LGA 2011-3. It’s a LGA 2066. There are attached photos to illustrate some if not all of this. If allowed I will raise my review rating once this issue is resolved.Edit: I found that the screws supplied do NOT have to pass through the motherboard the thread into the front housing. That was not included in the instructions.There is, however, a new issue I’m having with this motherboard. There’s a USB port on the motherboard that stopped working with my ‘Logitech G9’ mouse back in September 2018. I plugged a cheap Microsoft mouse into the port and it “worked”.The Microsoft mouse had its own issues that I won’t get into here. I recently bought a ‘Logitech G502 Hero’ thinking that the Logitech G9, was dead. When the Logitech G502 Hero, wasn’t working I plugged it into the USB port on the front panel of my PC. It’s working fine in that port. Now I have my Logitech G9, plugged into the front port and it’s working fine. I guess other than diagnostic purposes this new mouse was a waste of money. Hopefully I can return it to amazon for a full refund.Moral of the story: Steer clear of MSI motherboards.MSI Pro Series Intel X299 LGA 2066 DDR4 USB 3.1 SLI ATX Motherboard (X299 SLI PLUS)
